Scarborough: Pence Is Giving Baghdad Bob a Bad Name

‘I’m saddened by the fact that Mike feels like he has to lie to a reporter’

EXCERPT:

SCARBOROUGH: “John Heilemann, you know, I look at Mike Pence, and I just — I’m saddened by the fact that Mike feels like he has to lie to a reporter, needs to degrade himself for Donald Trump, and saying that, 'Well, we didn’t really see that blue wave. We had a great Tuesday.' It would be funny if it weren’t so sad for this guy who was actually once not only a respected politician but a respected man, but now he is giving Baghdad Bob a bad name saying that they had a great Tuesday, and this is — I don’t know. I just — an editorial comment here, this is what repelled so many educated suburban voters, that Mike Pence and people like Mike Pence and their representatives would lie to try to line up with Donald Trump, and it catches up with them. It always catches up with them, and they keep doing it. I mean, Tuesday was a massive blue wave, was it not? Especially in the House.”
