Morning Joe: "I Didn't Do It"

Morning Joseph wasn't covering Trump, he was promoting him.

Now he wants to pretend otherwise.

JOE SCARBOROUGH (HOST): And you know Mika, we've actually been hammered by people saying, "oh, you're supporting Donald." No, we're not supporting Donald Trump. We haven't supported Donald Trump. There's a great article in The Washington Post yesterday where somebody said, "even giving him a chance, suggesting that his candidacy might be viable, was so misperceived by an arrogant mainstream media, that just saying he had a chance to win meant you were somehow supporting him." And it's just a lie, and it's been a lie. I've said very clearly on this show that I supported Jeb Bush time and time again. But we saw the viability here. Nobody else did. And that's just -- okay. Other than Steve Schmidt, who's the only other person that came on, early on, this set and said it.

Obviously, for the sake of journalistic integrity, MSNBC should give him 10 more hours on the air per day.
