MSNBC’s Morning Joe co-host Joe Scarborough showed how far gone he is from being a Republican (and instead a Democrat) when he tag-teamed with former Obama official and Morning Joe analyst Steven Rattner that, if Republicans get their way on government spending and debt, cars and trains could be more at risk of crashing and falling apart, food-borne illnesses could skyrocket, and taxpayers would have more room to cheat.
Rattner set the table with a skewed view of the plan. After correctly pointing out much of what makes up the federal budget happens and isn’t annually doled out by Congress (e.g. entitlements, debt, and defense), the 11 percent is non-discretionary consisting of the various government agencies and Republicans want to “cut...47 percent of that.” In contrast, he naturally praised Biden’s plan.
