MSNBC analyst Michael Steele mocked former President Donald Trump's alleged destruction of White House records on Thursday by eating a piece of paper on live TV.
"Well, first, could you pass the salt?" Steele said in a response to a question from host Joy Reid about the widening Trump scandal, before placing a piece of paper in his mouth.
"Yummy, yummy. Pass the salt, please," Steele said, imitating Trump's voice, before apparently removing the paper from his mouth. "I'm stupid!"

"As for Hillary Clinton and her emails, I don't want to hear another word, not a damn word, from anybody, talking about Hillary Clinton and national security and her server," Steele said later in the segment. "After this son of a you-know-who is sitting up there eating documents, please!"
