During an event this week in D.C., MSNBC host Joe Scarborough detailed his recently-announced split from the GOP.
Your first response to the news might be “Wait, Joe Scarborough was a Republican?” And you would be in good company. Scarborough’s only relevancy lately has come from his constant attacks against President Donald Trump. His hatred of Trump climaxed earlier this month after the president attacked Scarborough and co-anchor Mika Brzezinski over two-faced behavior.
So he was hardly an ardent supporter of the party to begin with.
But his official reasoning for leaving the GOP has nothing to do with Trump. Instead, he cites opposition to one of the main principles of the modern conservative movement. If Scarborough doesn’t agree with the GOP on this issue, it’s hard to see what how he was ever a Republican in the first place. He was probably a big government interventionist all along.

If you sleep with Minka, i have trouble trusting your judgment before I find the effort to care.
Hey Joe, have you seen Fred Thompson’s wife Jeri? Do you think she works the pole? You look like you cultivate your hair like a farmer tends to his garden.
Sir all I said was Colin Powell was a registered Republican that generally voted the Democrat ticket. I respect the man and his service. However I find it strange that one would register as a Republican but vote Democrat. If you don’t that’s fine.
Boy, who are you kidding?
It’s not a big deal, he probably voted for Hillary so it’s no loss?
Who gives a s**t
