The false equivalency of the 2024 election is “absolutely insane,” fumed MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough on Monday.

The “Morning Joe” host slammed people in the media who are treating the campaigns of GOP nominee Donald Trump and his Democratic rival, Vice President Kamala Harris, in the same way.

Scarborough broadcast contrasting montages to torch the idea — which he said has been peddled in recent days by The New York Times’ Bret Stephens and The Wall Street Journal’s Daniel Henninger, among others — that Harris is low on policy issues, avoids answering serious questions and only talks about her background.

The first set of clips showed Harris detailing plans including tax assistance for start-up businesses, first-time homeowners and more. The second supercut showed Trump failing to answer simple questions and instead going off on nonsensical tangents. That Harris has only been telling her life story is “a lie, an absolute lie,” said Scarborough.

“It ignores what politicians have been doing for hundreds of years,” he added, recalling his own tactics from his GOP congressman days when he would detail his own family history that led him to believe “the greatest social policy is a job” before noting to listeners the three things he would do to create them.

“Nobody mocked me, nobody has ever mocked a politician for actually talking about their background and how it influences their policy,” noted Scarborough. “But now, as we get into the homestretch, the anti-anti-Trumpers who just can’t admit they are going to vote for a man who tried to overthrow American democracy, who did what they did on Jan. 6, they’re desperately trying to create the permission structure so they can vote for a man who said he was going to terminate the Constitution, that the chairman of the joint chiefs should be executed.”

Scarborough reeled off several other potentially disqualifying instances for Trump before adding: “I could go down all of those lists, but they’re looking at an interview where Kamala Harris gives the answer. They just say, ‘Oh, but she told her life story at the beginning of the Philadelphia interview,’ like no politician has ever done. Did Ronald Reagan do that? Did Barack Obama? Yeah, damn straight they did. Did Bill Clinton tell stories? Yeah, damn straight.”

“This is absolutely insane, the false equivalency,” Scarborough added.

“Do you have no shame?” he asked. “Do you really have no shame?”
