Scarborough Shames Trump Rally Crowd For Cheering Attacks on McCain, Bush Sr: ‘The 6,500 Meanest People’

by Aidan McLaughlin | 7:46 am, July 6th, 2018

Morning Joe took on President Donald Trump‘s Thursday night rally — in which he attacked Sen. John McCain and former President George H.W. Bush — holding his crowd accountable for encouraging the display.

“To me the worst part of last night,” MSNBC’s Willie Geist said, “is him going after John McCain who’s dying of cancer, again, and George H.W. Bush who just lost his wife and is suffering from Parkinson’s disease.”

During Trump’s rally in Montana, he mocked Bush’s “thousand points of light” quote, and bashing McCain for his vote against Obamacare repeal.

“It’s painful to watch,” GOP political strategist Susan Del Percio said. “This is the President of the United States going after people for a punchline. That’s disgraceful. We should expect more, and just to add on that, he also attacked the press exactly days after five people lost their lives in a shooting.”
