Haughty Joe Scarborough Warns Trump: ‘The Press Always Wins’

Thursday on Morning Joe, host Joe Scarborough urged Donald Trump to realize that “the press always wins” in fights withpoliticians. In the same hour, Scarborough criticized an editorial in The Wall Street Journal for not focusing on, what he considered to be, the most important points following former national security adviser Michael Flynn’s resignation.

Scarborough huffed, “Donald Trump has tried to delegitimize the courts…Don't screw with federal judges it never turns out well for you. And the courts won that round. He is trying to delegitimize the press the press has risen up over the past couple of weeks. And as I always say, don't fight the press, the press always wins. Ask Richard Nixon. The press always wins!”

What he means to be saying is that the power brokers who own both the press and the political parties haven’t lost in a long time.

Haughty Joe Scarborough Warns Trump: ‘The Press Always Wins’

The Constitution guarantees Freedom of the Press, but it doesn't guarantee that you should receive White House Press Credentials.

These idiot "journalists" usually come from "schools" that claim "the best and the brightest", called the administration NAZIs but can't comprehend why they don't get called upon at press conferences.

I have no idea what the media is supposed to win. Cronkite lied after TET 68 saying “The war is lost” so I have been critical of them since.

“The Press Always Wins”

No it doesn’t. Ask Dan Rather about that.

The “press” is now the opposition party. They will be treated as thus.

I disagree. With youtube, twitter, and other digital media, the old guard media isn’t needed anymore.

I have watched Joe twice for two or three minutes each time. He, like the rest of the televised news media, is worthless.

This reminds me of Mark Twain's quote: "Never pick a fight with people who buy ink by the barrel."

Still, we probably all think Trumps trashing of the media is something that should have happened decades ago.

Really Joe? Did these stories keep you off cable?

"Remember When a Dead Intern Was Found in Joe Scarborough's Office?"

The press was already veering towards 100% anti-American bias by then, but Cronkite’s fake analysis of Tet is a landmark in the history of media treason.
