Scarborough Slams the GOP for ‘Playing Right into the Hands of the Communist Chinese’ with Their Debt Ceiling Vote

‘You think that’s a game, Lindsey Graham?’

EXCERPT:

SCARBOROUGH: “And guess what the vote is going to be? 50 Democrats to save American’s retirement accounts, to just say no to communist China, to save the U.S. economy, versus zero Republicans. Not one Republican would vote to save your retirement accounts. Not one Republican would vote to strengthen the U.S. economy. Not one Republican would vote to push back communist China and not hand them the greatest propaganda victory they’ve ever had against the United States of America ever. That we’re so dysfunctional that we default on our debts. And you think that’s a game, Donald Trump? You think that’s a game, Lindsey Graham? What’s wrong with you? It’s a game? No, you’re playing with people’s lives. And worse than that, you’re playing with the reputation of the United States of America. And you're playing right into the hands of the communist Chinese. If you think it’s a game, and you think you’re going to be a nihilist and watch as this country burns, well, Chuck Schumer and the Democrats, they need to grow a backbone. They need to stand up to them. They need to do what Bill Clinton did to us as Republicans in Congress, quite frankly, and stare us down. Bill Clinton, the man who said it is better to be strong and wrong than right and weak, because Americans, they won’t follow you if you’re weak, even if you think you’re right. That’s the problem with Democrats. They’re always going around thinking they’re so right and they're so self-righteous, but they act like snowflakes. Stop acting like snowflakes."
