'October surprise': MSNBC's Morning Joe flags 'Donald Trump's biggest problem right now'
October 24, 2024
On Thursday morning, "Morning Joe" co-host Joe Scarborough launched into an extensive monologue detailing why he thinks Donald Trump's third bid for the White House is in trouble.
Using a bombshell report from Atlantic editor Jeffrey Goldberg that noted the former president wants his military leaders to be much more like the Nazi generals who launched World War II and helped him slaughter millions of Jews, the MSNBC host claimed the "October surprise" expected by political observers is Trump's own words coming back to haunt him.
Addressing his panel, he remarked, "Some pathetic people that are trying to cozy up to Donald Trump, who are trying to blame Jeffrey Goldberg, trying to blame General [John] Kelly for a, quote, 'October surprise' that they're making up. Of course. Imagine that: people actually questioning the integrity of those two. Questioning the integrity of General Kelly."

"But, no, those aren't the October surprises," he elaborated. "The October surprises are what Donald Trump says and what he has said every time he has opened his mouth. The October surprise is that Donald Trump has said he is going to arrest his Democratic opponents. The October surprise is that Donald Trump has said he is going to use the army and is going to use the national guard against his political opponents –– that's the October surprise."
Continuing in that vein, he added, "The October surprise is that Donald Trump has called Nancy Pelosi, Adam Schiff, called his Democratic opponents the enemies from within," before later stating, "But it is Donald Trump who said that Nancy Pelosi is more an enemy to America than Kim Jong-un, than Xi, than Putin, and all the other communist leaders and dictators that want to destroy America –– that's the October surprise. That's Donald Trump's biggest problem right now."
