Poor man, even MSNBC is tired of his tirades.
There’s trouble at MSNBC. Frustrated MSNBC host Joe Scarborough expressed his disappointment after his flagship morning show, Morning Joe, was pulled off the air following an assassination attempt on Donald Trump.

The decision to cancel the show on Monday sparked significant backlash and raised questions about NBC’s confidence in the anchors’ ability to cover the horrific event. Scarborough, along with co-host and wife Mika Brzezinski, returned to the air on Tuesday morning, airing their grievances with the network’s decision.
The hosts were blindsided by the executives’ swift return to regular programming and threatened to walk out if it happened again. This reaction came just hours after Trump received a rockstar welcome at the Republican National Convention, despite the bandage on his right ear from the bullet wound inflicted by Thomas Matthew Crooks.
