'Scared out of his mind!' Morning Joe shreds Trump for 'whimpering' instead of prepping
MSNBC's Joe Scarborough called out Donald Trump for running a public relations campaign for the first presidential debate instead of preparing.
The former president's campaign spokeswoman bragged to Fox News that he was taking part in campaign rallies and "hostile media interviews," when Trump was over on Newsmax talking to former campaign manager Corey Lewandowski, and the "Morning Joe" host mocked his allies' outlandish efforts to manage expectations for his face-off against president Joe Biden.
"The 'jacked up on Mountain Dew' theory did not come from some guy they picked up off the street, right?" Scarborough said, referring to comments by Rep. Erick Burlison (R-MO). "It wasn't like rolling dice against the side of the wall or something. I'm sitting halfway through going, who is this guy? He's an elected member of Congress who is on the House Oversight Committee, and he's talking about people being jacked up on Mountain Dew and they better be careful, because, you know, even old elderly people can be good every once in a while."
"Just pop up out of the coffin," offered co-host Mika Brzezinski.

"Yeah, they can just hop up and suddenly turn around and suddenly have the largest NATO alliance in world history, and you have the best jobs numbers in 50 years," Scarborough continued. "They can take a swig of Mountain Dew one moment, the next moment the dollar could be at a 50-year high. They can snort that Mountain Dew up, and since they're so old it's coming out through the nose, and that gives them the inspiration to and they say to themselves, 'Hey, I may be completely out of it but I'm going to do something that none of the preceding five presidents did, and I'm going to put together more bipartisan legislation than any other president since [Lyndon B. Johnson] – that's what I'm going to do."
"This is desperation, and like you say, like, you know, this shows how nervous they are," Scarborough added. "This is not how somebody who is confident acts. I never heard Larry Bird talking about, Magic Johnson is probably going to be jacked up on Mountain Dew, we're not going to be able to beat the Lakers. I can't believe I'm saying this, Trump is scared out of his mind. He's whining and whimpering because Joe Biden may just beat him really badly. I don't know, you tell me – why are they running so scared from Joe Biden, a guy who they've spent the last eight years saying is out of his mind?"
