After “Morning Joe” co-hosts explained the story, Scarborough responded by suggesting Rubio’s comments were “just a distraction.”
“It’s a, ‘Look over there. Look over there. Let’s talk about healthcare’ even though [Texas Governor] Greg Abbott slashes funding on healthcare. ‘Let’s talk about violent video games’ even though there are violent video games all over the globe and yet we in America have the gun problem,” Scarborough said. “Now, ‘Let’s talk about China?’ He’s 20 minutes, 30 minutes from Parkland? He says, ‘Let’s talk about China?’ The whatabout-ism, there is no whatabout-ism. … If Americans getting slaughtered, Marco, makes you talk about China, if you see, oh, I don’t know, if you see these little children (holds up NY Post cover) who have been slaughtered, you don’t want to talk about that slaughter, you don’t want to talk about Americans being killed, you want to talk about China? Nobody’s buying that bulls–t, Marco. Nobody. Nobody.”
