'Game is over': MSNBC host warns 'reckless' Mike Johnson he is risking GOP seats

Donald Trump's "big beautiful" budget bill is still facing major headwinds with some Republican senators balking at the very real prospect that it will explode the national debt, and one MSNBC host stated they need to get their act together or face a wipe-out at the polls.

On Thursday morning, "Morning Joe" co-host Joe Scarborough went on an extended rant aimed primarily at House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) for being in denial about what he is asking his GOP colleagues in the Senate to go along with.

After sharing comments of Johnson stating he doesn't agree with billionaire Elon Musk's harsh criticism of the bill, former House member Scarborough bluntly stated, "I mean, let me just be really clear here: this bill would never pass when we served and we balanced the budget four years in a row and actually ran a budget surplus for two years."

"This is just pure, simple math," he insisted. "And it's as if these House Republicans, who claim to be conservative, it's as if these House Republicans, they see this, a house on fire, and they run to it, $37 trillion debt, and they run to it, and they throw trillions of gallons of gasoline on the fire to have it explode. Specifically $2.4 trillion worth of debt added on. No ideology, this is black and white."

"And by the way, this is something that Democrats, my Democratic friends and Republican friends need to understand: the game is over, the gig is up. You can't keep kicking the can down the road but that's exactly what this bill does. We can't afford it anymore," he claimed.

"I'm sorry, I don't know where Mike Johnson thinks his members are going to be running over the next two years, but they're going to be running in red state America where they're going to be a lot of people who are going to be hurt by this bill," he warned. "They can call it a big, beautiful bill all they want to, but the fact is this is a type of bill? No conservative would ever vote for it, ever. It's reckless, it's irresponsible, and it's a fiscal nightmare."
