Mika Brzezinski slammed Sen. [crscore]Marco Rubio[/crscore] insisting he’s “sucking up” to Donald Trump in the hopes of being selected as vice president.
As Newsbusters reported, Wednesday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” Brzezinski claimed Rubio will “do whatever Trump tells him to do. He will do that. That’s why he’ll be his vice-presidential pick.” (RELATED: Donald Trump Could Choose One Of These People For Vice President)
Co-host Joe Scarborough began suggesting that Rubio and “[crscore]Ted Cruz[/crscore] — I’m sorry, I don’t want to offend anybody any more than I already have, but when I see these guys talking I see first-term senators that are reading rehearsed lines.”
Brzezinski, a liberal, interjected, “Which is perfect for a vice-presidential candidate, which is why he’s sucking up to Trump and hoping to get that. Come on. This is so obvious.”
Later in the show, Scarborough suggested, “Marco Rubio won’t attack Donald Trump. Donald Trump won’t attack Marco Rubio. Should we go ahead and just get a picture of them clasping hands right now, Photoshop it?”
Brzezinski added, “Because Marco Rubio is the only one — well, first of all he’s necessary on a number of levels, but he’s the only one who will go against everything he believes in and say whatever needs to be said, and Trump knows that he can prop him up perfectly, and that he will follow suit. He will do whatever Trump tells him to do. He will do that. That’s why he’ll be his vice-presidential pick.”
Host of BBC World News America, Katty Kay added, “You can say Ted Cruz has a history of shifting positions, too.”
Brzezinski agreed, “Well, that’s what I’m saying. He’ll switch on anything, he’ll do anything, he’ll say anything.”
