MSNBC host Joe Scarborough was so enraged by claims that Donald Trump’s recent comments about a “bloodbath” had been taken out of context that he cursed about it on his morning show.
As The Political Insider reported Monday, the mainstream media attempted to create a false controversy over Trump’s speech by using the word “bloodbath” completely out of context.
The Republican presidential nominee was discussing the auto industry when he made the remarks, indicating it would be decimated if Biden won reelection.
The media breathlessly suggested that Trump had openly called for violence. He didn’t do it.

Joe Scarborough insists Trump was not taken out of context
To the credit of X’s journalists, the media largely failed to get away with the “bloodbath” hoax. This was due to real-time reporting of Trump’s full comments on the platform.
It was a vision of reality previously banned on the former Twitter.
Joe Scarborough was furious that adding context to Trump’s comments showed that he wasn’t calling for violence by any stretch of the imagination.
The MSNBC host couldn’t accept the reality. And she indicated it as such in an expletive-filled outburst on her show Good morning Joe.
“I have never heard of macroeconomics in terms of carnage,” he insists. “But maybe, maybe so.”
“He’s obviously talking about a bloodbath for America,” Scarborough falsely claimed. “It’s structured on his terms. And these idiots, on Twitter, these idiots, on cable news, these idiots on the Sunday shows, “Well, the President, you know, was just talking about the auto industry.”
“It’s just bullshit. Let me just say, 6:15 is just bullshit,” she added. “She knew what she was doing. We are not stupid. Americans are not stupid. There was talk of a bloodbath. Sometimes a bloodbath means a bloodbath.”
Joe Scarborough is having a shocking meltdown as he’s being called out for amplifying the fake “Bloodbath” hoax 🤣

Scarborough used the phrase repeatedly
If ever there was a clear example of projection, it’s Joe Scarborough calling the people on X “idiots” who reported the truth behind the comments.
Then we have an example of hypocrisy. A video has surfaced in which the MSNBC host and wife repeatedly use the term “bloodbath” in their reporting.

Now, Joe Scarborough could, of course, claim that all of these examples of his use of the word “bloodbath” were taken out of context.
But then it would only be full of irony, right?
Scarborough is the same redneck who told his viewers during the pandemic that Republican politicians were trying to “euthanize” the elderly. All because Republican leaders knew they had to reopen the country during the pandemic.
Watch this clip. The contempt, the disgust they feel for people who didn’t believe the COVID narrative at the time.
What’s worse? He is telling his naive followers that the Republicans were trying to kill the elderly.
It’s okay to use the term “euthanasia”, but not bloodbath.
Scarborough insinuated that Trump supporters are “so stupid they should be kept away from blenders.”
Once again, the King of projection.
Now is the time to support and share the sources you trust.
