“This is a crisis and they need to alter that message.”
If you’ve lost MSNBC… It’s far from clear that Joe Biden actually has lost MSNBC, but he’s lost Joe Scarborough for the moment on the border crisis. After CNN reported that Senate Democrat Joe Manchin called this a crisis and a messaging failure, Scarborough agreed on air — and pinned the failure on Biden’s “permissive” messaging: MSNBC host Joe Scarborough faulted the Biden administration at then end of his “Morning Joe” program on Tuesday for a “permissive” border message that was leading to a surge of immigrants. Scarborough said he agreed with Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W. Va.) that the situation at the border was a crisis. “I’ve got to say Joe Manchin is right about the permissive message that has been sent,” Scarborough said Tuesday morning.
