MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough flamed President Trump in a piece for the Washington Post that called him “ignorant.”
..
The article was released Monday and amplified on Scarborough’s “Morning Joe” program Tuesday.
..
“President Trump’s decision last week to assassinate the most powerful military figure in the Middle East was, likewise, audacious. But unlike MacArthur at Inchon, Trump likely did not grasp the gravity of his decision. How could he? The former reality TV star has long been ignorant of world history and current events,” he wrote, going on to cite a 2015 interview during which then-candidate Trump did not know who Iranian General Qasem Soleimani was.
..
Scarborough wrote that Trump misidentified Soleimani as a Kurdish commander, then “weakly attacked the interviewer for ‘throwing around names of people and where they live.’”
..
The “Morning Joe” co-host went on to say that what he sees as Trump’s ignorance is dangerous and so, too, is the president’s “erraticism.”
