For John, BLUF: Do you think he is serious? Nothing to see here; just move along.
That is a tweet from former US Congressman and now MSNBC morning talk show Host Joe Scarborough (@JoeNBC).
This was the leading edge for an Opinion Piece by Mr Scarborough in The Washington Post, 10 September2018.
Here is the closing paragraph of the Opinion Piece in The Wash Post:
Osama bin Laden was killed by SEAL Team 6 before he accomplished that goal. Other tyrants who tried to do the same were consigned to the ash heap of history. The question for voters this fall is whether their country will move beyond this troubled chapter in history or whether they will continue supporting a politician who has done more damage to the dream of America than any foreign adversary ever could.So, here is how I read this tweet and The Washington Post article. President Trump is worse for the United States than Osama bin Laden. We killed Osama bin Laden in order to protect the United States. And, unspoken, is the assumption that former Congressman Joe Scarborough is calling for the removal of President Trump, to protect the United States.
Am I wrong here?
Hat tip to the InstaPundit.
