Morning Joe’s producers opted to open their show this morning with a montage of past and current presidents making comforting statements. Viewers saw clips of Ronald Reagan, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, and Barack Obama each rising to the challenge of delivering words of comfort and unification in light of a recent disaster.

This montage ended with a clip of Donald Trump then talking about his “bad hair day” at a political rally just hours after the Pittsburgh hate massacre occurred.

But host Joe Scarborough went one further. Calling this a “national reckoning,” he made plain that he sees this as a moment where a nation needs to decide if this is the sort of country they want to live in with the midterm elections just eight days away.

“For two and a half, three years you have had a president and a candidate running for president who after Charlottesville preached moral relativism and equated neo-Nazis with those that were protesting against neo-Nazis,” Scarborough noted.

He continued “you have had somebody who has been calling Hispanic’s breeders, somebody who has been calling himself a nationalist and neo-Nazis have come out praising him for that, praising him for other actions. He has refused steadfastly to attack white nationalists.”

He finished by claiming that Trump’s joke about his hair, or tweeting about a baseball game “was sending a message” and “that was done intentionally to send a message to white nationalists: ‘this doesn’t bug me that much.'”

2. Steve Miller told trDump everything is going just swimmingly with the Nazi cohort...

... trDump should not delve into the Nazi issue - avoid and down play - so trDump's Fascist base does not abandon him.
