‘Morning Joe’ Mocks Trump over His Great Memory: ‘He Can’t Remember Exactly Why Manafort Was Hired

EXCERPT:

SCARBOROUGH: “What is so fascinating to me is, there goes the man with the best memory of all time. Hold on. I think he’s got, he says —“
CONFESSORE: “Certain nations.”
FORD JR.: “One of the all-time great memories.”
BRZEZINSKI: “And his best adviser is himself because he has a great brain.”
SCARBOROUGH: “But he can’t remember exactly why Manafort was hired.”
BRZEZINSKI: “Campaign chair.”
SCARBOROUGH: “He can’t remember why exactly he was fired.”
BRZEZINSKI: “In charge of stuff.”
SCARBOROUGH: “He says he wasn’t there very long. I remember they were all saying, ‘We have to fire Corey Lewandowski because Paul Manafort —“
BRZEZINSKI: “I think they fired the wrong guy.”
SCARBOROUGH: “I think they did. Paul Manafort is a guy that can count delegates. ‘We can’t get the nomination without Paul Manafort.’ That’s what they said, by the way. ‘We can’t get the nomination without Paul Manafort because he can count delegates.'"
BRZEZINSKI: “Maybe the stress of the presidency has impacted his memory a little bit, because it is a stressful time.”
