'This sounds desperate': MSNBC panel dismantles early morning Trump claim
Appearing on MSNBC just moments after Donald Trump took to Truth Social to boast about his poll numbers, a former Republican member of the House laughed off the president's claims and called it "desperate."
During his spot on MSNBC's "The Weekend" ex-Rep. Denver Riggleman (R-VA) was presented with Trump's post just moments before where the president claimed, "Poll Numbers within the Republican Party, and MAGA, have gone up, significantly, since the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax was exposed. They have hit 90%, 92%, 93%, and 95%, in various polls, and are all Republican Party records."
A laughing Riggleman wasn't buying it and stated the numbers likely came from controversial conservative polling organization Rasmussen.
As co-host Capehart noted Trump also complained about "troublemakers," an off-camera Riggleman interjected, "wrong," causing the host to laugh.
"This sounds desperate," Capehart stated.
"Is that the same Rasmussen poll over and over again?" Riggleman joked, causing the entire panel to burst into laughter.
"So I think that what we're looking at it is desperation," he continued. "They're flooding the zone which you know, Steve Bannon always said when things get bad –– this is simply flooding the zone. The Epstein thing is overwhelming the and I think that's why you're seeing all the crazy stuff coming out with Tulsi [Gabbard] and things like that."
"This is flooding the zone," he repeated and added, "This is crazy and I think right now you're seeing a little bit of desperation."
