Joe Scarborough blasted the media for its hypocritical debate coverage during Thursday’s broadcast of “Morning Joe” on MSNBC.

“This is just an example of the media finding something they can absolutely freak out about,” Scarborough said of Trump’s waviness on accepting the election results, should he lose. “It’s just another example of the media having to find a little phrase and freak out.”
“As a Republican, I have listened to Democrats talking about the only two times we won the White House in like 800 years, we stole both elections,” he continued. “I had to sit through Fahrenheit 911, and a lady sobbing violently behind me on the Upper West Side about the election being stolen for George Bush.”
“Democrats have been lying for 16 years, they’re still writing articles about how Bush stole the elections in 2000 and 2004, so this holier-than-thou attitude about ‘oh, this is the first time that the election is not a sacrosanct process,’ it’s a joke,” the former Florida congressman explained. “You guys bathe in that hypocrisy if you want to, I’d just like to hear how the debate went.”
“Go ahead. Bathe.”
