Joe Scarborough Stands by His ‘Best Biden Ever’ Comment

EXCERPT:

SCARBOROUGH: “I can understand why people would see that without the context and say that there was a a problem with -- especially because I said, 'Start rolling your tape right here,' you know, it's like — but I — you know, when I look at that tape, based on what I saw with Biden, based on the time that I spent with Biden, based on the hundreds of hours that I talked to people who talk to Biden and people that worked with Biden and were with him day in and day out, good friends that I know, that I trusted before Biden was president, that I trust now that Biden's not president, I mean, put it in the proper context, I’m just not going to freak out and melt down on one or two clips here and there. And again, he bumbled around and he stumbled around, but he has for quite some time. That didn’t seem, to me, to get in the way of Joe Biden being able to analyze the most important issues, and I certainly think he has a better grasp on it than probably the overwhelming majority of his critics, or certainly did when I spoke with him.”
