MSNBC's Joe Scarborough condemned Donald Trump's self-aggrandizing Memorial Day statement and shamed anyone who could still bring themselves to vote for him.
The former president lashed out at the "human scum" involved in his various legal cases, and potentially opened himself up to additional lawsuits by E. Jean Carroll, in a Truth Social holiday post that made no mention of military service members or their sacrifices, and the "Morning Joe" host expressed his disgust.
"We've heard from President Trump's own staff members about him being completely baffled by service to one's country in the military, by the loss of life, basically calling those who were killed losers," Scarborough said. "The contrast not just between Joe Biden and Donald Trump, but between Donald Trump and every president that's ever served this country before when we get to this point."

Scarborough also took aim at wealthy businessmen who are bankrolling Trump's campaign on the grounds that they think he'll be good for their bottom lines.
"I must say, too, the people who we have discussed before in their little fleece vests who, we talk about it for money, them supporting Trump because they think they'll make more money," he said. "It's ridiculous because the Dow is at 40,000. This is something else I've never been able to figure out. The very people who spent their entire life beating their chest self-righteously about their patriotism, telling the left that they don't love America, America love it or leave it. These are the very people supporting a man who denigrates the memory of those who have served and sacrificed all for America."
"Again, we're not shocked by anything Donald Trump says," Scarborough added. "We're not shocked by anything he says anymore. We are shocked by those we know who watch this man denigrate the memory of the fallen and happily support him, happily vote for him, happily turn the country back over to him."
