Joe Scarborough Issues Stark Warning After Biden Debate: ‘Unless Things Change’
HuffPost
MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” host had some tough love and harsh truths for the president, who he said now must be the focus of “hard questions.”
MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough on Friday responded to President Joe Biden’s much-maligned debate performance by predicting that former President Donald Trump will win the 2024 election “unless things change.”
The “Morning Joe” cohost began his analysis of Thursday’s debate by expressing his love and respect for Biden, praising the president as “the most effective president in passing bipartisan legislation” and more.
But Scarborough warned of “how dark of a place a second Donald Trump term will take America” and said serious questions now need to be asked of Biden, given what’s at stake in November’s vote.
If Biden was a CEO, “and he turned in a performance like that, would any corporation in America, any Fortune 500 corporation in America, keep him on as CEO?” asked Scarborough.
He questioned whether Democrats need to tell Biden it’s over, adding: “These are hard questions, but the fact is, friends, failure is just not an option in 2024.”
