MSNBC’s Heilemann Alludes to Trump as “Total Scumbag”
FinkelBlog ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 06/07/2018 4:33:24 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

In its unremitting attack on President Trump, Morning Joe might have hit a vulgar new low today when MSNBC analyst John Heilemann alluded to President Trump as a “total scumbag.”

Here’s the context: what changed Morning Joe from merely another MSM Trump antagonist into raging, Trump-hating fanatics was a 2017 Trump tweet claiming that Mika Brzezinski had turned up at Mar-a-Lago bleeding from a facelift.

So when Trump yesterday tweeted criticism of those who speculated that Melania’s recent absence from public view was attributable to a facelift, Morning Joe pounced. Scarborough and Heilemann unleashed a string of epithets, including Heilemann’s “total scumbag,” condemning anyone who would hurtfully suggest that a woman had a facelift. Although said in the context of those speculating about Melania, Trump was—as Heilemann later admitted—their real target.

Another seat in Congress to the GOP. At last count, the GOP will gain 65 seats in the House, 12 in the Senate.

I saw the opening too(then changed channel after a few minutes).

I saw liberal Joe Scarborough repeat over and over that he hadnt see nor read any of these (negative) speculations about Melania’s recent absence.

Of course many of them were on his network MSNBC.

Hard to believe him.

Every morning Joe lies then calls Trump a liar.

Joe’s nose seems to be getting wider as his mouth grows smaller. It’s remarkable, in a cartoon-like way.

I notice they didn’t actually claim she did not have a face lift.

If Trump is smart he should say that the democrats had every ability to lower black unemployment but they chose not to. Democrats have tried to keep blacks underemployed for 50 years.
