Trump turns to object of his ridicule
In an interview with Politico’s Glenn Thrush, MSNBC host Joe Scarborough accused CNN President Jeff Zucker of “turn(ing) their entire broadcast center over to” Donald Trump by personally calling the presumptive Republican nominee to book him on CNN’s programs. I’m putting it on the table.
“What he said last week was racist but I make a distinction between a remark that is racist and a person who – he’s nearly 70-years-old”, he continued. “Until you come back to the table and get on the other side of the table and prove to me that you’re not a bigot and prove to me that you’re not gonna take my party down in the ditch, you don’t have my endorsement”.
Donald Trump sits down with “Morning Joe” in Iowa in January.
What is interesting is that Scarborough’s strategy for beating Trump is exactly what Hillary Clinton has already been doing. I’m taking the gun away from my head. It was a back-to-basics moment after a week consumed by his fights with the media over his veterans fundraising and his claim that a US federal judge was biased against him because of his Mexican heritage.
‘He hasn’t said that publicly.
House Speaker Paul Ryan described what Trump said as the “textbook definition of a racist comment”.
Scarborough even provides tips about going after Trump. There are many people who are either surprised by his strength, or don’t like him, and want to blame someone to explain why he has been this popular’.
Ron Weiser, one of the recently named top fundraisers for Trump and the Republican Party, said the nominee’s attacks on Curiel are “obviously making it more difficult” to raise money for Trump, whose opponent could have $1 billion at her disposal.
‘And you’re not, ‘Brzezinski said, addressing the GOP. “And then you lose the Senate and you lose the House and then we small-government conservatives, we’re screwed because you’ve destroyed our party because you’re running scared”.
MSNBC’s morning news and talk show stepped further into the anti-Donald Trump camp on Thursday by comparing the Republican presidential candidate’s proposed temporary ban on Muslim emigration to anti-Jewish edicts during Adolph Hitler’s rise to power.
