The morning after Donald Trump's first debate with Vice President Kamala Harris, MSNBC "Morning Joe" hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski pounced all over his performance and, at times, appeared speechless at how bad he appeared.
After sharing clips of the former president ranting about immigrants stealing and eating pets, which also showed his Democratic opponent looking on incredulously, Scarborough took his first shot of the morning at the embattled Trump.
With the two hosts noting Harris landed the endorsement of superstar Taylor Swift, calling that "the beginning of the end" for Trump, Scarborough continued, "You had one candidate that was completely unhinged, just completely off his rocker. He looked badly, he looked old. he looked disconnected from reality, he looked enraged."

"He kept repeating the same things over and over again and made no sense," he continued. "There was no preparation on his side and he resorts to internet rumors already debunked just because he has nothing to say. One of the most ill-prepared — well, the most ill-prepared presidential candidates we have ever seen in one of these debates, one the of the angriest."
"And I got to say hunched over," he added as the "Morning Joe" producers ran more clips without sound. "Look at him; his eyes squinting. The split-screen was extraordinary. So this morning, for people on any network, even those who get paid to lie about Donald Trump every day, there is no sane-washing this and there is no normalizing there and there is no pretending that that was any other candidate, this is any other election or that was any other debate."
