RUSH TRANSCRIPT SCARBOROUGH Well ░░░░░░░░ think it s absolutely ░░░░░░░░ that it s in ░░░░░░░░ mainstream of American political ░░░░░░░░ that now Donald Trump ░░░░░░░░ one the Republican nomination ░░░░░░░░ is something that most ░░░░░░░░ other than you thought ░░░░░░░░ even three months ago ░░░░░░░░ months ago And I ░░░░░░░░ say you said it ░░░░░░░░ early before anybody else ░░░░░░░░ it even the fact ░░░░░░░░ you suggested that he ░░░░░░░░ have a big impact ░░░░░░░░ the race was scorned ░░░░░░░░ almost all media outlets ░░░░░░░░ have spent the last ░░░░░░░░ to nine months suggesting ░░░░░░░░ we were wrong about ░░░░░░░░ Now that it is ░░░░░░░░ they are now mocking ░░░░░░░░ ridiculing us because we ░░░░░░░░ it right and suggested ░░░░░░░░ somehow shower too close ░░░░░░░░ Donald Trump when that ░░░░░░░░ just a lie The ░░░░░░░░ of the matter is ░░░░░░░░ re just angry because ░░░░░░░░ have been wrong for ░░░░░░░░ months and we ve ░░░░░░░░ right BRZEZINSKI You know ░░░░░░░░ is also it s ░░░░░░░░ saw it with Joe ░░░░░░░░ yesterday his head was ░░░░░░░░ to explode here on ░░░░░░░░ set There are people ░░░░░░░░ cannot get their heads ░░░░░░░░ this Because we ve ░░░░░░░░ him on previous levels ░░░░░░░░ we had a sense ░░░░░░░░ this It s not ░░░░░░░░ scorn we re getting ░░░░░░░░ some of our competitors ░░░░░░░░ re getting a strange ░░░░░░░░ as if we are ░░░░░░░░ of asking Donald Trump ░░░░░░░░ questions in the town ░░░░░░░░ you would see that ░░░░░░░░ ve asked him every ░░░░░░░░ we ve pushed back ░░░░░░░░ don t agree with ░░░░░░░░ four out of six ░░░░░░░░ things that he said ░░░░░░░░ thought they were horrible ░░░░░░░░ I have said that ░░░░░░░░ I will say it ░░░░░░░░ and yet you have ░░░░░░░░ competition holding a similar ░░░░░░░░ hall and asking him ░░░░░░░░ he likes pizza Are ░░░░░░░░ kidding me And what ░░░░░░░░ you listen to I ░░░░░░░░ t remember doing that ░░░░░░░░ Last week it was ░░░░░░░░ same exact thing last ░░░░░░░░ with the town hall ░░░░░░░░ that a competitor BRZEZINSKI ░░░░░░░░ then they have us ░░░░░░░░ articles This is Trump ░░░░░░░░ syndrome SCARBOROUGH It is ░░░░░░░░ It s not us ░░░░░░░░ A competitor actually asks ░░░░░░░░ about how did you ░░░░░░░░ your wife You know ░░░░░░░░ s it like being ░░░░░░░░ first place et cetera ░░░░░░░░ cetera BRZEZINSKI How do ░░░░░░░░ relax Do you sleep ░░░░░░░░ Yeah how much sleep ░░░░░░░░ you get And for ░░░░░░░░ reason there are no ░░░░░░░░ written about this The ░░░░░░░░ Post actually after our ░░░░░░░░ hall meeting the other ░░░░░░░░ when I peppered him ░░░░░░░░ so many questions that ░░░░░░░░ was actually attacked for ░░░░░░░░ too much actually said ░░░░░░░░ dare they hold a ░░░░░░░░ hall meeting where they ░░░░░░░░ t ask him tough ░░░░░░░░ It s a bunch ░░░░░░░░ nonsense BRZEZINSKI And CNN ░░░░░░░░ a piece on Biden ░░░░░░░░ Here is the great ░░░░░░░░ all right We live ░░░░░░░░ a world of transcripts ░░░░░░░░ live in a world ░░░░░░░░ transcripts Look at the ░░░░░░░░ The truth is out ░░░░░░░░ BRZEZINSKI Look at ours ░░░░░░░░ And we asked tough ░░░░░░░░ tougher questions certainly in ░░░░░░░░ town hall meeting the ░░░░░░░░ night than anybody else ░░░░░░░░ asked him in any ░░░░░░░░ hall You can look ░░░░░░░░ Anderson cooper s last ░░░░░░░░ BRZEZINSKI Love him And ░░░░░░░░ it was a good ░░░░░░░░ hall by the way ░░░░░░░░ I love Anderson cooper ░░░░░░░░ And he did a ░░░░░░░░ job SCARBOROUGH We ve ░░░░░░░░ very positive about Anderson ░░░░░░░░ but just because our ░░░░░░░░ have hired media reporters ░░░░░░░░ have actually planted this ░░░░░░░░ in other people s ░░░░░░░░ that we re going ░░░░░░░░ on Donald Trump that ░░░░░░░░ asked tougher questions than ░░░░░░░░ competitors ask who have ░░░░░░░░ media writers and people ░░░░░░░░ the audacity to ask ░░░░░░░░ we too close to ░░░░░░░░ Trump The answer is ░░░░░░░░ we re not ROBERTS ░░░░░░░░ hear from a lot ░░░░░░░░ voters and a lot ░░░░░░░░ interesting people and there ░░░░░░░░ almost a form letter ░░░░░░░░ of template for the ░░░░░░░░ common criticism I get ░░░░░░░░ is why doesn t ░░░░░░░░ media hold politician X ░░░░░░░░ for Y Right And ░░░░░░░░ write back well what ░░░░░░░░ you mean Because we ░░░░░░░░ the politician about this ░░░░░░░░ did follow up questions ░░░░░░░░ point out that what ░░░░░░░░ said or Y said ░░░░░░░░ a lie What you ░░░░░░░░ objecting to is the ░░░░░░░░ that the politician you ░░░░░░░░ t like that SCARBOROUGH ░░░░░░░░ don t like the ░░░░░░░░ ROBERTS His campaign didn ░░░░░░░░ immediately collapse SCARBOROUGH That ░░░░░░░░ what I said I ░░░░░░░░ it was Eric of ░░░░░░░░ Washington Post said well ░░░░░░░░ dare you have a ░░░░░░░░ hall meeting where you ░░░░░░░░ t ask about his ░░░░░░░░ comments and his BRZEZINSKI ░░░░░░░░ comments SCARBOROUGH All these ░░░░░░░░ comments By the way ░░░░░░░░ he didn t write ░░░░░░░░ article after CNN was ░░░░░░░░ what his favorite flavor ░░░░░░░░ ice cream was and ░░░░░░░░ he slept and what ░░░░░░░░ he order when he ░░░░░░░░ through McDonald s We ░░░░░░░░ tough questions and it ░░░░░░░░ t the first time ░░░░░░░░ we ever interviewed him ░░░░░░░░ that s the frustration ░░░░░░░░ ve asked the tough ░░░░░░░░ about muslims we ve ░░░░░░░░ the tough questions about ░░░░░░░░ we ve asked the ░░░░░░░░ questions about John McCain ░░░░░░░░ don t you get ░░░░░░░░ sense gene from people ░░░░░░░░ are complaining to you ░░░░░░░░ if you don t ░░░░░░░░ on top of him ░░░░░░░░ your knees on his ░░░░░░░░ and stab him in ░░░░░░░░ side of the neck ░░░░░░░░ he bleeds out it ░░░░░░░░ never going to be ░░░░░░░░ ROBINSON That was rather ░░░░░░░░ SCARBOROUGH I m serious ░░░░░░░░ would not be gene ░░░░░░░░ That would not be ░░░░░░░░ Unless it causes his ░░░░░░░░ to completely go away ░░░░░░░░ I think that s ░░░░░░░░ of it BRZEZINSKI And ░░░░░░░░ is the big lie ░░░░░░░░ the way SCARBOROUGH What ░░░░░░░░ are objecting to are ░░░░░░░░ fact that he continues ░░░░░░░░ do well BRZEZISNKI Do ░░░░░░░░ jobs we ll do ░░░░░░░░ Let s play fair ░░░░░░░░ Here is the amazing ░░░░░░░░ and I do understand ░░░░░░░░ s a great deal ░░░░░░░░ resentment out there we ░░░░░░░░ analysts our job is ░░░░░░░░ analyze and Mika and ░░░░░░░░ certainly understand you re ░░░░░░░░ angry because we called ░░░░░░░░ first We understand you ░░░░░░░░ humiliated because this is ░░░░░░░░ job and while you ░░░░░░░░ saying Donald Trump was ░░░░░░░░ joke we were saying ░░░░░░░░ Donald Trump was actually ░░░░░░░░ to have an impact ░░░░░░░░ this race We understand ░░░░░░░░ while you said there ░░░░░░░░ no way he would ░░░░░░░░ get into the race ░░░░░░░░ was saying he could ░░░░░░░░ the Republican nomination BRZEZINSKI ░░░░░░░░ he might not SCARBOROUGH ░░░░░░░░ might not We said ░░░░░░░░ might And people hated ░░░░░░░░ for even saying he ░░░░░░░░ I know it s ░░░░░░░░ to you I ve ░░░░░░░░ some things that have ░░░░░░░░ really humiliating in my ░░░░░░░░ too So listen I ░░░░░░░░ going to pray for ░░░░░░░░ We re in the ░░░░░░░░ belt here and we ░░░░░░░░ going to pray you ░░░░░░░░ through it BRZEZINSKI This ░░░░░░░░ been fun SCARBOROUGH Here ░░░░░░░░ the thing can I ░░░░░░░░ all the people say ░░░░░░░░ AUDIENCE Amen SCARBOROUGH Let ░░░░░░░░ pray for them Listen ░░░░░░░░ can be humiliated but ░░░░░░░░ inward because you know ░░░░░░░░ mom always told me ░░░░░░░░ the swamps of northwest ░░░░░░░░ when you point a ░░░░░░░░ at a person you
