āMorning Joeā cuts off painful interview with Florida governor for avoiding questions about Trump and Muslims
I'm sure he doesn't really believe all Muslims hate America, and I'm sure most Republicans don't believe it either. What exactly did he see as the harm in saying no? Is he looking for a position in a Trump cabinet?
MSNBCās Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough cut short an interview with Florida Gov. Rick Scott on Thursday after he refused four times to say whether he agrees with Donald Trumpās declaration Wednesday night that āIslam hates us.ā Scott, a Republican, has not endorsed a presidential candidate but is friendly with Trump. And his unwillingness to back Marco Rubio, his stateās junior U.S. senator, is undeniably a slight.
Brzezinski, in particular, seemed irked by Scottās evasiveness. She apologized to Scarborough, a former congressman of Florida, for the awkwardness of the exchange with his longtime friend but made clear that she wouldnāt proceed if Scott continued to duck.
