Scarborough got the ball rolling in this clip with a question to New York Times reporter and his hair doppelganger, Jeremy Peters.
Talk about the impact among the base if he were to fire somebody and if he continues disrespecting somebody who has actually believed the same things his whole life and fought for them even back when Donald Trump was giving money to Hillary Clinton, supporting Barack Obama and giving money to Chuck Schumer and others.
Peters happily obliged by responding that Trump was cyberbullying his Attorney General because he was afraid of a real confrontation. Jeff Sessions provided him with an awful lot of political cover in the primaries, when there were conservative Republican voters who looked at Donald Trump and said I dont know that, that guy believes in what I stand for. Jeff Sessions, though, was the embodiment of that conservative national strain of politics that ultimately delivered the White House to Donald Trump, said Peters
In distancing himself from Sessions, what I will describe as cyberbullying, hes cyberbullying Sessions into what he hopes will be his resignation because he wont say it to his face. Despite this image of being a board room tyrant which hes cultivated for himself, hes ultimately conflict averse.
