Fox's Kayleigh McEnany and Sen. Tim Scott were none too happy with the crew over on MS Now's Morning Joe for giving Scott's performance at the Republican Midterm Convention the scorn it deserves.
After playing a good portion of Scott at the podium sounding like a hopped-up flame throwing preacher, followed by Scarborough, Sharpton and company joining hands and saying they were going to pray for Scott because he "needs an interception and intersection,” McEnany asked Scott to respond:
KAYLEIGH MCENANY: How gross. Joining me now with reaction, Republican senator Tim Scott. They seem very lost over at MSNOW.
TIM SCOTT: Absolutely, Kayleigh, I’m not sure what an interception is except for on a football field.
But at the end of the day, now we know why Joe’s ratings are so darn low. They will hide from the truth, and they will publicly endorse a lie.
Think about how incredibly dangerous states like California that want to take away your kids if you don’t agree with the pronouns that the schools choose for your kids? Think about the Biden Justice Department that labeled domestic terrorists parents who show up at school districts.
And they want to make fun of what I had to say. I know they’re coming for our culture.
This is a group of Democrats, the most dangerous, radical, and weird group of Democrats who literally say there are six genders, and god is non-binary.
If you don’t want to stand up and fight for the soul of this country, your wood is wet. It’s that simple.
So Scott's response to the criticism was to lie about kids in California schools and keep making a fool of himself.
Here's The Daily Show's Michael Kosta with a better take on Scott's performance than the Morning Joe response. (Portion with Scott around the 2 minute mark.)
