A decision by Donald Trump to use a Thursday night address to the nation to relitigate the results of the 2020 election, where he lost, was greeted with amusement and disbelief on MS NOW on Tuesday morning.

After the president teased his plan to address the nation on social media, it was reported that he will use his time to claim that newly declassified intelligence exposes a plot by a foreign nation to interfere in the 2020 presidential election to deny him back-to-back terms.
According to the co-hosts of “Morning Joe,” the president will likely come to regret opening that can of worms again.
Pointing out that the 2020 election was conducted on Trump’s watch, Joe Scarborough bluntly stated, “This is a crazy thing when they’ll be going like, ‘Oh, the FBI, they infiltrated January 6th, the deep state.’ It was his FBI! It was his deep state! It was his election officials; like he ran the 2020 election!”

“So he’s going to come on and say, ‘I was so stupid that I let foreign countries infiltrate our election in 2020 in a way that Barack Hussein Obama did not in 2016, in a way that Sleepy Joe Biden did not in 2024.”
“Again, the insanity of it all,” he exclaimed. “But I guess he wants to turn the camera on himself and say,’ I was so incompetent that I couldn’t even run an election.’”
Co-host Willie Geist joked, “Feels like an own goal,” before adding, “Also, at a time when a president, any other president at this moment, might talk about the war in Iran, right? What are we doing there? How’s it going? What’s the endgame? Affordability, things that are impacting people’s lives. Certainly not an election he lost six years ago.”
