Scarborough: January 6 Hearings ‘Every Bit as Compelling as Watergate Hearings’
Breitbart ^ | 06/16/2022 | Hannah Bleau

MSNBC “Morning Joe” host Joe Scarborough on Thursday touted the House Select Committee’s primetime hearings over the January 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol.

Scarborough agreed with The Atlantic’s Caitlin Flanigan, who said she was as “riveted” by the hearings as her parents were with the Watergate hearings. The MSNBC host added he didn’t think the American people would care about the hearings but noted that the “numbers have been staggering.”

The Watergate hearings were going nowhere until the secret r cordings we’re revealed.

Where’s the j6 tapes?

Scarborough’s marketing is inept. Lots of voters today weren’t even alive during Watergate. Hell, a lot of them don’t even remember Lewinksygate.

The Watergate hearings were not compelling either so maybe it is an apt comparison.

Exactly. As I understand it, his contract with MSNBC pays him 15 million a year.

And, while he is a paid whore, he is much too smart to believe in any of the lies, leaps of logic, and bilgewater he spews. Privately he must know whatever he spouts openly on his show is nothing but falsehoods and nonsense.

Nice try Joe.

Joe was 10 yrs old when the "compelling" Watergate hearings were held.

Yeah and that’s why except for rabid Dims NO ONE is watching their dog and pony show (even with a CNN producer running the show. Oh wait maybe that’s why no one watches:-)!

No, no, he is correct and accurate.

You are thinking wrong.

We need to reassess and recalibrate our rating of the Watergate hearings down to the level of the J6 hearings !

Now we know that the Watergate hearings were also democrat bunk !

It’s a fairly slick bit of theatre.

I just watched my first 10 minutes of the Donkey Show. It’s hard to believe these elected officials are this dumb.

How old was Scarborough then, anyway? I’m certain he was not listening to them. They were BORING!!! The worst thing that Nixon did was to lie about the event then destroy several minutes of tapes. He resigned.

They try to liken the J6 event as an insurrection, but as an article stated the other day...if this was a planned insurrection, how come nobody came with AR15s and the like? Because people planned to come to the speaking events and got goaded into doing some things that they didn’t plan to do in the first place. But since when have people been prohibited from entering the Capital building, which like the WH belongs to the people? Yes, there is decorum and normally you’d seek an appointment to have a tour, but when someone from the inside opens the door and invites you in...wouldn’t you think that it was okay and not a set-up in order to arrest as many MAGA as possible?

I caught some of Mark Levin’s radio 6/16 show today, and I enjoyed how he broke down and parsed what was testified to in the 1/6 Hearings:
