Scarborough Responds to Eric Trump’s Social Media Posts

The “Morning Joe” hosts on MSNBC, Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski, displayed a marked bias against the Trump family during their Tuesday broadcast.

Reaction to Eric Trump’s Memorial Day Post

Scarborough and Brzezinski were visibly shocked and audibly exasperated following a social media post by Eric Trump commemorating Memorial Day. Eric’s post quoted another message from the Trump family that was captioned, “The family that gave up everything to save America.” Eric added, “And we will do it again!”

The discussion panel, which was already analyzing former President Donald Trump’s Memorial Day message, quickly incorporated Eric’s post into their conversation. Panelist Willie Geist referenced the backlash Eric received for his post, stating, “And it wasn’t just former President Trump, it was also his son, Eric, getting some well-deserved backlash over his social media post after one user posted a photo of the family with the caption ‘The family who gave up everything to Save America. Thank you!’”

Scarborough’s Reaction and Criticism

Scarborough could barely contain his disbelief, nearly keeling over in his chair as he exclaimed, “Oh my God, oh my Lord.” He also criticized Eric for an Instagram post (which has since been deleted) promoting a Memorial Day sale on Trump merchandise. In a sarcastic tone, he summarized it as: “We are honoring our brave men and women this weekend. Please buy our stuff.”

And we will do it again!

Former President Trump’s Memorial Day Statement

Former President Donald Trump also made headlines with his Memorial Day statement on Truth Social, where he criticized E. Jean Carroll and the judge involved in his civil rape case, labeling them as “Human Scum.” He expressed dissatisfaction with the judgment against him, which amounted to $91 million for defamation and sexual battery charges. Despite being exonerated on the criminal rape charge, Trump was ordered to pay $83.3 million and posted a $91 million collateral bond pending an appeal of the judgment.

Comparison with President Biden’s Memorial Day Message

In stark contrast, Scarborough and Brzezinski praised President Joe Biden’s Memorial Day message as a demonstration of different leadership styles. However, they did not address Biden’s own controversies related to fallen veterans. Former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki recently had to retract statements in her book denying that Biden checked his watch while the bodies of soldiers killed in Afghanistan were being unloaded from an aircraft. Furthermore, Biden has been criticized for overshadowing a family who lost their daughter in Iraq by focusing on the death of his son Beau.

Conclusion

The “Morning Joe” segment highlighted the distinct differences in how the two administrations approach Memorial Day and sensitive issues at large. The apparent bias of MSNBC’s hosts underscores their lack of impartiality when reporting on these matters.
