Joe Scarborough, talk show host and former lawyer, has been on a roll recently with his comments regarding President Trump’s ongoing trial. Scarborough’s bold stance on law and order, coupled with his recent denouncement of the defense witness’s behavior, is stirring up quite a conversation.

Scarborough is known for not holding back his opinions, especially when it comes to the court system. Recently on his show ‘Morning Joe’, he was discussing the trial concerning Trump’s alleged hush money, where he was visibly perturbed by defense witness Robert Costello’s behavior towards Judge Merchan. Remembering his days as a budding attorney in Florida, he argued that such flippant and disrespectful actions towards a judge would have resulted in the witness cooling his heels in jail to think about his choices.

Willie Geist, his co-host, weighed in on the conversation agreeing with Scarborough’s stance. Geist insinuated that acting tough and showing disrespect for the court for Trump’s attention would bear no fruit in Judge Merchan’s courtroom.

Turning up the heat, Scarborough was more than ready with his retort. He depicted the defensive team as clowns in an attempt to cater to Trump. While wearing his typical attire of a blue blazer, a white shirt, and a red tie, Scarborough suggested that these clowns were attempting to pander to an audience of one – Trump. Yet ironically, Scarborough himself hosts his own show supposedly catered to his audience of one, President Joe Biden.

Strong words were similarly reserved for Costello, with Scarborough insisting that if such disrespect were repeated, the appropriate response would be an immediate trip to jail.

Trump was not exempt from Scarborough’s law and order mindset. Discussing Trump’s personal attacks on Judge Merchan and the judicial system, Scarborough argued that if he were the judge, Trump would be experiencing the trial “in shackles” despite his political status. The statement, a clear indicator of Scarborough’s views on court decorum and respect, took no prisoners, regardless of profession or prestige.

Scarborough dismissed the notion that Trump was being victimized and targeted unfairly as pure nonsense, or in his own words, “rank BS”. He emphasized his view that everyone is equal in the eyes of the law, and anyone disrespecting the court system should be held accountable, whether they are a former President or not.

In conclusion, Scarborough’s views on trial decorum and respect for the law are clear as day. Whether you agree with him or not, one thing is for sure, he isn’t afraid to state his view, take it or leave it. His argument presents a powerful interpretation of equality, respect, and consequences, a stance that resonates regardless of one’s political leanings.
