MS NOW cuts feed on Trump after his 'embarrassing' praise of Iran's leadership

MS NOW’s “Morning Joe” cut off live coverage of Donald Trump speaking in France after he heaped praise on Iran’s Revolutionary Guard leadership for agreeing to a temporary peace deal that remains a mystery to US lawmakers on both sides of the aisle.

According to co-host Joe Scarborough, Trump was humiliating himself and the US.

While sitting with the emir of Qatar, Trump described the old leadership of the war-torn country as “irrational” before adding, “I think Iran has rational leadership. But you wouldn't have if it weren't for the United States of America, with me, because Obama was the opposite.”

That forced Scarborough to jump in as the feed was cut.

“This is this is one of the things, Mika [Brzezinski] that is so concerning to so many, even Republicans on Capitol Hill and anybody that has followed Iran,” he remarked. “Everybody since 1979 and the revolution — you know, we don't know what's in this document, which in and of itself is a very strange thing. If you have a peace deal that's so great … that's going to bring peace to the world, that's going to bring peace to Iran, then show it, show it to the world."

”Again, we still are hearing very little about it,” he re-emphasized. “Even [GOP Sen.] Lindsey Graham said it's hard to support a deal when the only thing you hear about the deal comes from Iran. That's the first thing. Second thing is we don't know what's going to happen. You never know how history unfolds. We don't know if this war ultimately will bring positive change to Iran in 5, 10, 20 years from now. Who knows?”

“But this is the most concerning part,” he continued. “Donald Trump just called the most extreme members of the Revolutionary Guard 'rational.' This is exactly what Israel was concerned about. This is exactly what his critics in America were concerned about. This is exactly what Republicans were concerned about, is exactly what Iran hawks were concerned about, that he would be so desperate that he would bend over backwards to sell a really bad deal. So he's saying that Iran is rational. JD Vance yesterday went on TV and said, gee whiz, the great thing here is basically these Iranians, they've decided it's cool. They're going to change their ways.”

“It's really embarrassing for them — I'm embarrassed for them,” he added. “It's humiliating for the United States throughout the entire region. What does Israel, what does the UAE, what do countries all across that region think when they hear Donald Trump say, ‘Oh, the most radical members of the Revolutionary Guard are rational people’?”
