MSNBC’s Morning Joe co-host Joe Scarborough appeared Tuesday morning over on NBC’s Today to promote his new book (or whomever wrote it for him) about Harry Truman and, with help from co-host Savannah Guthrie, denounced Republicans as “post-democratic” in their reaction to the 2020 election results and compared Truman to President-Elect Joe Biden.

After a few teases, Guthrie painted Biden as entering office with a “familiar” set of challenges:

An American president inherits a country in crisis on many fronts, including on the world stage and with a tough economy here at home. Sound familiar? Well, we're talking about the nation's 33rd president, Harry Truman, who took over the White House in the final stages of World War II. So are there lessons to be learned by President-Elect Biden? Of course.
