Scarborough then told Trump supporters they are just as bad as the president regarding racial issues.
“[Trump supporters] cannot say, ’Oh, I’m just supporting him because he’s giving them hell in Washington, D.C.,” Scarborough said. “No, he’s been openly racist, just like we said back in December of 2015, openly racist. If you support him, then you’re supporting that, and you are that. It’s that simple. That’s what we’ve come to now.”

Wow, is that how it works? JFK was openly Catholic, does that mean everyone who supported him was Catholic? Greg Lougannis was openly gay, does that mean everyone who cheered for him was gay? Mohammed Ali was a draft dodger. Does that mean everyone who supported him was a draft dodger? Thanks, I didn't know why I never listened to Scarborough before, now I do.
Reminds me of Hillary Clinton who said that his supporters were deplorable. Makes you wonder why she lost the election.
