'What!?' Morning Joe panel blown away by Trump's late night attack on Josh Shapiro

A report from MSNBC's Mika Brzezinski on Donald Trump attacking Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro (D) late Wednesday night where the former president curiously led by pointing out the Democrat is a "Jewish Governor" set off a wave of disbelief and seething anger on "Morning Joe" on Thursday morning.On his Truth Social platform, Trump wrote, in part: "The highly overrated Jewish Governor of the Great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Josh Shapiro, made a really bad and poorly delivered speech talking about freedom and fighting for Comrade Kamala Harris for President, yet she hates Israel and will do nothing but make its journey through the complexities of survival as difficult as possible, hoping in the end that it will fail."As Brzezinski read the posting, MSNBC regular Donnie Deutsch loudly exclaimed, "What!?"ALSO READ: ‘Stop the Steal’ organizer hired by Trump campaign for Election 2024 endgamePrompting her panel, Brzezinski sarcastically commented, "Willie Geist, it's always helpful to your campaign when you attack the governor of a state you desperately need."Co-host Joe Scarborough interjected, "By the way, identify him as the highly overrated Jewish governor," which led MSNBC host Jonathan Lemire to look down and shake his head."This is a moment where people go, 'There he goes again,'" Geist added. "No, no, no, let's stop for a moment — the man who wants to be president again is calling Josh Shapiro a 'Jewish' governor, sending up smoke signals to some of his supporters.""I mean, he's lost his ability, if he ever had it to use innuendo," he continued. "And now he's just coming out and saying these things absolutely out loud about Josh Shapiro. 'He's Jewish. So take what he says with a grain of salt.'"Watch below or at the link right here. - YouTube youtu.be
