Making an early Thursday evening appearance on MSNBC, Morning Joe co-host Joe Scarborough briefly reminded both viewers and fellow media members that, contrary to the liberal media’s uproar over the level of anti-Hillary Clinton rhetoric, the Democrats hurled plenty of ugly material in the direction of then-candidate and President George W. Bush at their 2000 and 2004 Democratic National Conventions.

Fellow co-host Mika Brzezinski provoked the comments from Scarborough when she admitted that she hopes Donald Trump will use the last night of the Republican National Convention (RNC) to “be unifying, that he could actually calm our jitters about exactly how he’s going to do this thing, but you've got the audience right now screaming ‘lock her up.’”
