MSNBC’s 'Morning Joe' made fun of Donald Trump's typo-laden post on Truth Social, stating that if Biden had done something similar, the media “would be going crazy” about it.
Co-host Mika Brzezinski started the segment by pointing out that Trump and Joe Biden had clashed over whether Trump would repeal Obamacare if re-elected.
Trump shared on Truth Social that he's “not running to terminate the ACA, AS CROOKED JOE BIDEN DISINFORMS AND MISINFORMS ALL THE TIME, I’m running to CLOSE THE BORDER, STOP INFLATION, MAKE OUR ECONOMY GREAT, STRENGTHEN OUR MILITARY, AND MAKE THE ACA, or OBAMACARE, AS IT IS KNOWN, MUCH BETTER, STRONGER, AND FAR LESS EXPENSIVE.”
When sharing Trump’s post on air, Brzezinski stopped reading it to say, “if Joe Biden put out something like this, our friends at Fox News and all the other networks would be going crazy saying he’s senile, he can’t even spell.”
“Morning Joe” then presented Biden’s response, which stated, “A feeble and confused Trump posts a typo-ridden all-caps rant misspelling’ Biden,’ ‘disinforms,’ ‘misinforms,’ and other basic words.”
“Here we are on the 14th anniversary of Obamacare and it’s more popular than ever, and, no, Republicans never came up with a replacement for it. And Donald Trump didn’t come up with a replacement when he was president,” Katty Kay said in response to the feud.
“How do they handle Trump online and do they go for making fun of him, taking on Trump in his own game the same way Marco Rubio tried and dismally failed to do?” Kay continued. “Do they keep taking the high ground and pointing out the policy issues, like he’s never going to replace Obamacare?”
John Heilemann joined in, joking, “Let me inform you, Katty.”
I think 'feeble and confused' sums up the tone of that Biden response,” Heilemann continued. “They are trying to go directly at Trump with the types of insults that Trump hurls at Biden, and I think that’s the right approach.”
Heilemann added that “the gloves are off,” and that the Biden campaign has been performing well. They have “raised their game since the Republican primary began, especially after the State of the Union.”
