"Scarborough stated, 'That's crocodile tears. You know if they would sit back and just let things take their natural course, there would be enough criticism of Kimmel from their side.'"
"'When the president of the United States said Liz Cheney should be shot in the face or with a firing squad, it’s happened time and time again.'"
"'Kimmel defended his joke as a pretend roast, while saying he agreed in rejecting hateful and violent rhetoric.'"
Joe Scarborough condemned Trump officials for their outrage over Jimmy Kimmel's joke about Melania Trump, labeling their reactions as hypocritical. Kimmel's joke, made during a skit before the White House Correspondents' Dinner, drew backlash from both the First Lady and President Trump, who called for Kimmel's firing. Scarborough pointed out the silence from these officials regarding past violent remarks made by Trump, emphasizing the inconsistency in their responses. He argued that their outrage was insincere, referring to it as 'crocodile tears' given their previous inaction on more serious comments.
