MSNBC PANEL GOES OFF THE RAILS: “COMPARING BILL CLINTON TO BILL COSBY IS WRONG!”

The rhetoric on Monday’s Morning Joe turned heated between cohost Joe Scarborough and Harold Ford during a discussion on the newly-renewed conversation of President Bill Clinton’s past




transgressions in office and its impact on the 2016 campaign trail. Scarborough offered the connection between Clinton and disgraced comedic legend Bill Cosby, whose ongoing allegations of sexual abuse continue to dampen his legacy. Scarborough began, “I wonder how the public looks at Bill Cosby and says, ‘This beloved man who changed American culture as much as any entertainment figure in our lifetime is going to have to be accountable for the way he treated women behind closed doors’. How does a public that has come to that conclusion say, ‘The Bill Clinton’s stuff OK’?”. “Raising your voice at me doesn’t make this right,” countered Ford. “Comparing Bill Clinton to Bill Cosby is wrong.” Scarborough pressed Ford directly by responding, “I am fascinated to hear why comparing Bill Cosby to Bill Cosby is wrong.”
