A rare dispute between MSNBC "Morning Joe" regulars broke out on MSNBC on Wednesday morning as co-host Joe Scarborough loudly cut off branding expert Donnie Deutsch when he attempted to claim Vice President Kamala Harris didn't connect with voters.
As part of the autopsy of the failed campaign to keep convicted felon Donald Trump out of the White House, Deutsch claimed of Harris, "I think in the most simplistic advertising format of all time: problem, solution. I think the other thing that happened is what I will just call the passion quadrant. This is, I'm talking mostly centrists, this is where the Democrats are really fractured."
"There were so many people that were passionately for Trump and passionately against Trump," he continued. "I'm talking about the voters that go back between Biden and Trump and Obama and Reagan. Then you had passionate against Trump and you didn't have as much passion for her. You never heard people go, 'Oh, I love her. it just ––."

"Hold on, I have to stop you there, because that is wrong," Scarborough exclaimed
"Okay, then I'm wrong, Deutsch backtracked.
"No, no that's your world," the MSNBC host replied. "But I'm just saying, though, you said you didn't hear people. We heard people all the time, women that Mika [Brzezinski] talked to all the time, excited Republicans driving five states over to see her."
"I will strike that," his guest replied.
"That is the world that you are in – I get it. That's not the world that Mika is in," Scarborough explained.
