MSNBC host Joe Scarborough questioned President Donald Trump’s loyalty to the American military on “Morning Joe” Tuesday and compared the Russian hack to the 9/11 terror attacks.
“Yesterday we had a president who stood on the world stage and he had an opportunity to show fealty to our republic. Instead what he showed was fecklessness towards Russia,” Scarborough said. “He showed cowardice on that world stage where the president looked like a weak, dumpy stooge to a KGB spy. He had a chance to show loyalty to the men and women in uniform of America’s military and Intel community, and instead he betrayed them. Time and again.” (RELATED: Joe Scarborough Says Any GOP Effort To Impeach Rod Rosenstein Would Be Doing ‘Putin’s Bidding’)
WATCH:
Scarborough compared Russian hacking to the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor and 9/11.
“I know there’s no way to ask you for a parallel, because there is no parallel. FDR, after Pearl Harbor, didn’t deny there was an attack. George W. Bush didn’t deny Al Qaeda’s attack on September 11th. But Vladimir Putin attacked American democracy,” he continued. “We’ve got the forensic evidence. It’s there for all the world to see. Every reasonable, rational person looks at that material just like they can see the DNA on a gun and they know who did it, when they did it, how they did it, why they did it.”
