After the Trump administration fired acting Attorney General Sally Yates for her refusal to defend its executive order barring immigration from seven Muslim-majority countries, it issued a statement calling her very weak, while also slamming her for supposedly betraying the Justice Department.
On Morning Joe Tuesday morning, co-host Joe Scarborough argued that Trump had the right to fire Yates for her defiance, but he said the way that his administration trashed her on the way out the door was terrifying. Specifically, the administrations declaration that she had betrayed the DOJ seemed to really spook the MSNBC host.
The word betrayed, using the word betrayed for somebody, thats frightening, Scarborough said. Thats what an autocrat would use, whoever put that word in there.
Scarborough then emphasized that he did believe that Trump may have been in the right to fire Yates, but he said that the way that it was done was unlike anything hed ever seen before in the United States.
