How pathetic was Joe Scarborough’s desperate attempt to downplay the scope of Trump’s victory? The best Scarborough could do was to repeatedly cite a state that Trump won! A state Trump flipped, after losing it in 2020!
On today’s Morning Joe, Scarborough repeatedly relied on the results in Wisconsin to make his flimsy case. Scarborough harped on Trump winning Wisconsin by “less than 1%” [the margin was 0.9%.] Scarborough conveniently ignored that Trump had lost the state by 0.7% in 2020, thus improving by 1.6%.
Scarborough tried to bolster his case by twice mentioning that on the same day Trump carried Wisconsin, voters there also re-elected “a lesbian Democratic senator.” (Tammy Baldwin won by 0.8 percent over a first-time candidate.)
Discussing national trends, Scarborough mockingly referred to Trump’s “1% landslide.”
But Scarborough again ignored…
