'Oh my God!' MSNBC hosts laugh at sad support for Trump's 'Marie Antoinette Ballroom'

Reacting to polling that shows Americans overwhelmingly oppose Donald Trump tearing down the East Wing to build a gaudy 90,000 square foot ballroom that will dwarf the White House, an MSNBC panel could not control its glee about the presidential misstep.

On ”Morning Joe,” MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough kicked off the pile-on over Trump’s folly after co-host Willie Geist reported that a Ipsos/Washington Post poll showed only 28 percent of those polled supported the construction of the oversized edifice.

“Never saw that coming,” Scarborough joked. “Can I ask you a question, Willie? Who is that 28 percent?” which made both of them laugh.

“I love it," Geist joked as Scarborough continued, “Are these MAGA people that are like, having trouble, like, like paying their car loans and, you know, paying their health care costs and they're going, ‘Oh, I love the idea of the president deciding in the middle of this crisis and government shutdown to tear down half of the White House and put up a Marie Antoinette Memorial Ballroom.’”

“Who are those 28 percent?” he continued.

“People who ride or die with Donald Trump?” Geist replied before reporting, “Independents, by the way, are overwhelmingly against the ballroom; 61 percent of them.”

That caused the off-screen Scarborough to snort and blurt, “Oh my god!”

“Not a huge surprise there, but just now we see it in the numbers,” Geist observed.
