Morning Joe regulars couldn't believe how Trump proudly took credit for blowing up abortion rights at last night's Fox town hall.
"It was the easiest thing. I've never seen, never seen a paid advertisement on Fox News, or anywhere else. this was, like, Glenn Beck survival scenes back when he had a show there. It was like an advertisement for Donald Trump. And even in that setting, he did this.
TRUMP: For 54 years, they were trying to get Roe v. Wade terminated, and I did it. I'm proud to have done it. They wanted to get it back, right? You wouldn't have that.
You're right, O Orange One. If it wasn't for you, a 12-year-old who was impregnated by her stepfather wouldn't have had to flee her state. Good for you! I'm sure that will be very popular with voters, and we'll be sure to remind them.
We did it, and we did something that was a miracle. when I walked onto the stage today, a gentleman in the back, probably works for Fox, nice guy --
"You know, it is really something, Wllie, he said, "I did it. Nobody else could have done it. I terminated Roe v. Wade." And everybody in his campaign staff was like, oh, my God.
"The old man did it again. He can't help himself," Scarborough said.
"Yeah, I mean, at this point, the Biden campaign doesn't have to put out statements, they just retweet clips of Donald Trump saying these things over and over again. It's literally what he is doing, oh, he's going again, taking credit for the three justices on the Supreme Court. He wants credit for getting rid of a 50-year right in this country. And watching, Joe, you're right, the town hall, just start with, rather than saying, here's what the lies were, almost everything he said last night was a lie, and then you can work backward from there," Willie Geist said.
