Mika Brzezinski: ‘Biggest Problem to Everybody’s Safety Is Guns,’ Not Terrorism

‘You’re Being Really Disingenuous’: Scarborough Calls Out Cohost on Fear-Stoking Accusations (Mediaite)

On Monday’s Morning Joe, cohosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski got into a heated exchange during a conversation on the President’s response to the growing ISIS threat and rhetoric from some intended to play on the fears of the American public.

Brzezinski noted at the beginning of the discussion on the Republican candidates for President that some “are just capitalizing on fear.”

When author Kristen Soltis Anderson contributed the idea of a disconnect between the concerns of the American people and the response from President Obama, Brzezinski offered that guns — not terrorism — were really at the heart of the electorate’s concerns. “Except I would argue that in this century our biggest problem to everybody’s safety is guns compared to terrorism — would anybody disagree?” she offered.
