Donald Trump Can't Stop Tweeting About Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough
"Crazy Joe Scarborough and dumb as a rock Mika are not bad people..."
If anyone believed that Donald Trump was about to stop tweeting about Morning Joe hosts Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough, they were sadly mistaken. The President took to Twitter on Saturday to share his somewhat offensive opinions about the MSNBC journalists, personally attacking them, this time with words like "crazy" and "dumb." Basically, you'd be forgiven for thinking Regina George had written Trump's latest tweet.
The President definitely isn't a fan of Brzezinski and Scarborough, but his tweets have shown that his dislike isn't reserved to their political opinions. Trump's disgusting posts criticizing Brzezinski's appearance, and his latest which labels her "dumb," only support the view that the President has an extremely sexist attitude to women.
Trump previously called the hosts "low I.Q. Crazy Mika" and "Psycho Joe." His description of Brzezinski, as "bleeding badly from a face-lift," is just another example of his contempt for women, and is totally inappropriate coming from the President himself.
Most people are expecting Trump to tweet about the 4th of July. Instead, he is celebrating the holiday weekend by branding a female journalist "dumb as a rock." When will this awful behavior end?
