‘You’re Not Listening’: Joe Scarborough Snaps At Chuck Schumer Over Iran War Dodge

MS NOW’s Joe Scarborough pressed Democratic Minority Leader Chuck Schumer Monday on whether it is good that Iran’s military infrastructure has been degraded.

Scarborough repeatedly argued on “Morning Joe” that the U.S. military significantly damaging Iran’s military infrastructure is a good thing. In a heated discussion, Schumer pushed back, saying its too early to determine whether that is a good outcome.

“Is it good that their military infrastructure is being degraded? You know the degree that it is. Yes or no?” Scarborough asked.

“You can’t, because it’s a premature question,” Schumer replied. “What is gonna happen in the next several months?”

Scarborough then said a critic of the conflict in Iran can agree that seriously disintegrating Iran’s military infrastructure is good for the U.S.

“Regardless of whether we agree with going in or not, is it good that Iran’s military infrastructure has been seriously degraded?” Scarborough demanded.

“I have to tell you, Joe, first, what’s gonna happen three months from now. Is it worth it? What’s gonna happen? Will the world economy collapse? Will something happen even worse? Will the whole energy infrastructure of the world go up in smoke?” said Schumer on possible outcomes of the destruction of Iran’s military. “So you have to, when they do it without planning, when they do it without understanding, where they’re going, I don’t think it’s fair—”

Schumer was interrupted by crosstalk, during which co-host Mika Brzezinski called it a “trick question,” before Scarborough cut in to respond.
