‘An Aging Bullsh*t Artist’: Cable Host Savages Trump in Extraordinary Takedown
Americans who vote for the Republican are “going to ruin this country,” Brzezinski says
The co-host of MSNBC’s popular Morning Joe news program fired off an extraordinary takedown of Donald Trump, after reviewing a Trump campaign speech.
Fired up, Mika Brzezinski went so far as to use the kind of profanity on-camera that she occasionally chides her co-host and husband, Joe Scarborough, for.
Brzezinski, the daughter of the late national security adviser Zbignew Brzezinski, was leading a panel while reviewing an off-the-wall speech Trump gave campaigning in Detroit, Mich., when she went off.
She played a clip of Trump talking about piggy banks, billionaire Elon Musk’s rocket ships, and “beautiful” circles that he claimed that President Biden couldn’t fill.
“I mean, I wouldn’t even call that the weave. I would not grace that with the phrase ‘word salad.’ That just made no sense,” Brzezinski said. “And I just don’t understand anybody right now who could watch him talk and say, ‘Yeah, he definitely makes more sense than the alternative.’
“Like, all these people, I was watching the news yesterday, flipping around and hearing hosts whining, ‘Kamala Harris needs to do more.’ Okay, more than everything she’s doing? Fine, give me your ideas. But what?! I mean, watch the alternative for two minutes,” she added. “‘Grocery, the stomach is speaking?’ Elon’s rocket ships. Cylinders, circles, beautiful circles. What the hell? I mean, that’s like an epic weave that he talks about, but his weaves aren’t brilliant.
“You know what he is doing? He is getting through the moment as an aging bullsh*t artist, okay? He is just getting through the moment,” Brzezinski said, before turning to panelist Symone Sanders-Townsend. “And insulting Detroit to its face, and you’re right, Symone, there is racism in there.”
“He thought he was speaking to white people that didn’t live in Detroit. He thought he could trash it. That’s my estimation,” Sanders-Townsend said, adding, “‘Oh yeah, let me trash Detroit because y’all must live in the suburbs.’”
Brzezinski turned her attention to those Americans who still plan to vote for Trump this year.
“Let me tell you something. There is something wrong with people who can watch that and think the alternative, Kamala Harris, isn’t more articulate, more prepared, more experienced, more able to — and when I say articulate, that means actually deliver a message to the American people on a certain policy. You know she can,” Brzezinski said. “If you can’t believe it, and this is your choice, you’re lying to yourself and you’re going to ruin this country.
“It’s going to be on you. It’s going to be on you. Because there’s no way you can watch that or any of his speeches and get anything out of it except for a hateful, racist, bigoted, tired, aging, branding — I wouldn’t say genius — branding-obsessed narcissist,” she added.
