"When people fear the government there is tyranny.
When government fears its people, there is FREEDOM."

Every time Trump gets under the skin of these idiots it brings a huge smile to my face

[DaveShmoe]

It was a joke. He was busting Brandon's arse about saying his father was eaten by cannibals and the cannibals coming across our border.

[rickjensen]

Woke, ashamed of nothing, offended by everything.

[jimjones-pztt]

For a comedian, you just don't get it. Didn't Biden say one of his uncles was eaten by cannibals?

[lavonnekelly]

You forget...Obiden was the one who brought up cannibals first...he said his uncle got eaten by cannibals..

Donald Trump doesn't make mistakes. He trolls the MSM constantly. He gets his kicks as we all do watching them clutching at straws.

[tonyhanley]

The reason they laughed is because most of us still have a sense of humor & kmow a freakin

Joe Scarborough is baffled by any logical, coherent thought. The only thing Joe knows is having affairs and vodka

[forevertoons]

Joe Scarborough was certainly no fictional character to his unfortunate staffer, Lori Klausitis. Scarborough was, in fact, a monster to her. R.I.P. Lori

The desperation coming from Joe n Mika and the entire staff of MSDNC is exquisite!

[Sparkles]

Are people surprised Morning Joe didn't get the joke? They don't seem like the sharpest tools in the shed.

[Chrisuperfly]

MSNBC would be baffled by the sun, the wheel, how to make popcorn…..

[lahnhan]

The way that lady treated Russell when he went on the show was insane. Look at you now, Russell ❤ Truth will always prevail.

[j.r.warren]

It's beyond them not having a sense of humor. It's now to the point where that have no sense.

[AjWard-nhtp]

He's talking about the illegal who stole a man's leg who got hit by a train and another who attacked a man and was eating his face. Stupid but true, there are cannibals among us

[georgetown]

They’ve reached peak pathetic on Morning Joe, like school children.

[donnaeturner]

Americans for America Trump 2024! God Bless all Patriots around the world!

[stormcup]

I am a south african living in the uk. I have a 2016 Trump hat!

[markkelly]

To be fair, Trump's point seemed more coherent than whatever than man and woman were waffling on about.
