Joe Scarborough has a pretty scathing opinion piece in The Politico, in which he doesn’t hold back against his former leader: The same man who once compared himself to Napoleon (and grandly told his lieutenants that he was at “the center of a worldwide revolution”) now grabs cheap headlines by launching bizarre rhetorical attacks.
