MELTDOWN: Ben Carson Demands That Host’s Mic Be Turned Off, Asks If Others Can “Plug” Her Mouth [View all]
This was probably not the interview that former Republican candidate and current Trump pal Ben Carson had in mind. The famed neurosurgeon appeared Friday morning on MSNBC’s Morning Joe and he got brutally raked over the coals by cohost Joe Scarborough and Katty Kay, who he immediately began fighting with from the opening minutes of his hit. The heat didn’t stop for several minutes, and Carson dug himself a deeper and deeper hole as it continued.
He sparred with Katty Kay as she pressed him on labeling Trump’s accusers as liars then following that up by asking Scarborough, “Can you turn her microphone off please?” Yes, really, that last one really happened. More remarkably, he shockingly continued a beat later, “Do you guys have a plug, please?” presumably to fill the mouth hole of a journalist who — god forbid — asks difficult questions of a presidential candidate’s surrogate weeks before the election.
