Morning Joe criticizes Republican candidates for openly supporting Trump.
Morning Joe Host Slams GOP as Fallen Party
Morning Joe host Joe Scarborough delivered a scathing critique of the Republican Party during Wednesday’s Republican debate. He expressed his dismay after six candidates raised their hands in support of former President Donald Trump, even if he were to be convicted of serious crimes.
“Those candidates raised their hands, except for Asa Hutchinson and Chris Christie, to say they would support a president if he was convicted of stealing nuclear secrets, stealing military war plans to invade Iran, stealing military assessments on what the weakest parts of the United States military was … stealing a presidential election,” Scarborough said.

Scarborough went on to accuse Trump of orchestrating a conspiracy to obtain fraudulent electors, with the complicity of those surrounding him. He expressed his disappointment that members of the Republican Party would still follow Trump’s lead.
“The fact that they would raise their hand and say that they would support a presidential candidate who was convicted, convicted of stealing nuclear secrets, tells you, once again, so much more than you need to know about how low the Republican Party [is] in 2023,” he said.
Scarborough concluded by describing the fall of the GOP as “sad and pathetic.” He emphasized the need for a strong Republican Party, but expressed his belief that the current state of the party does not meet that standard.
