“Morning Joe” co-host Joe Scarborough believes if Republicans “screw it up for two years” with majorities in the Senate and House, “they will lose in 2016.”
Scarborough and fellow panelist Donny Deutsch also believed this is the best move for both the country and the Democrats, with Deutsch opining this is the best thing going forward for President Obama.
“I think this is going to be the best thing to ever happen to Barack Obama,” Deutsch said. “It might wake him up and re-energize him in the last two years.”
“You’re exactly right, Donny. Barack Obama still believed in 2012 that if he won re-election, Republicans would suddenly say, ‘Oh, he’s legitimized, and we’re going to work with him,'” Scarborough said. “No, it’s going to take this final step of Republicans takeover to go, ‘Do I want to get things done or not?’ and for Republicans to then have no more excuses. They’re either going to make Capitol Hill work, or they’re going to screw it up. If they screw it up for two years, they will lose in 2016.”
“The best thing for Republicans and Democrats is the Republicans take over the Senate,” Deutsch remarked.
“I think it’s the best thing for the country as far as accountability,” Scarborough responded, adding, “Do you want to run Washington or do you want to run your mouth?”
