I think its safe to assume Donald Trump is going to say offensive things, said Joe Scarborough who spent another day on Morning Joe lambasting the president for his latest objectionable remarks.
Earlier this week, President Donald Trump used the death of White House Chief of Staff John Kellys son a Marine who died in Afghanistan to deflect from criticisms over his inconsistent condolences to gold star families. You could ask General Kelly, did he get a call from Obama? Trump said during an interview with Fox News host Brian Kilmeade.
Trumps began employing this whataboutism against Barack Obama with Kellys son after he was criticized for not properly addressing the US troops who recently died in Niger a move that Scarborough called a cheap political shot. Scarborough went on to raise the question as to what Kellys thoughts were on the president using his sons death as a prop:
If we have to talk about whats happened over the past several days on this story, it would make more sense to talk about what the president did to the chief of staff and his wife and their daughter-in-law and their grandchildren and their family when the president dragged their son into the limelight for a cheap political shot on a talk radio show used [Kellys] sons dead body to attack Barack Obama, and by extension other predecessors Exactly what is John Kellys response to the President of the United States doing something that no one, no president with any shred of humanity would consider doing.
Morning Joe co-host Mika Brezinski chimed in by saying Trump does not seem fit for the job at all particularly as the possibility of war controls the fears of the American people.
