Joe Scarborough Says Donald Trump's Rallies Are Becoming 'X-Rated' After President's 'Explicit' Meat Gesture: 'It's Clearly an Obsession'

Morning Joe host Joe Scarborough suggested that President Donald Trump's midterm rally behavior is becoming too "X-rated" for morning television.

The commentary follows Trump's Texas campaign appearance on Tuesday, October 27, where he mocked Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico.

During the rally, Trump falsely claimed Talarico is a vegan who gets sick from eating barbecue. Imitating Talarico, Trump brought his hand toward his open mouth while declaring, "I love the meat. Ahhh. I love it, look.”

On Wednesday's broadcast of the MS NOW show, Scarborough and his co-hosts reacted to the viral gesture.

Scarborough characterized the president's increasingly risqué antics as unfit for daytime audiences.

“It’s really hard for him to find a man’s body he doesn’t like,” Scarborough said, launching into a parody of the Johnny Cash song “I’ve Been Everywhere.”

“Stop, Joe!” chided his blushing wife and co-host, Mika Brzezinski.

“The obsession with men’s physiques. And then last night, he was doing a motion on eating meat,” Scarborough continued. “I don’t think we can show it. It’s X-rated.”

Brzezinski interjected, asking: “Is he OK?”

“I mean, where’s you-know-who to write that you-know-what?” she asked, digging at journalists like Jake Tapper, who penned tomes on President Joe Biden’s cognitive abilities. “We need a book. I mean, there was a book on Biden.”

Scarborough and co-host Willie Geist attributed the escalating campaign trail behavior to the 80-year-old president's personal filter eroding with age.

The panel also highlighted other recent instances where the president has oddly focused on the physical attributes of politicians, noting Trump has seemingly become an admirer of the "male physique.”

“Well, I think if you’re Ken Paxton, this really has to sting because you’re one of the few men not on the hot list,” Geist said, adding that Trump titillates with teasing “so he doesn’t have to talk about the price of gas and diesel and all of those things.”

“That’s also the president of the United States who’s going around saying, like, ‘Talarico is gay.’ He’s the one talking like this!” Scarborough exclaimed. “His vice president is the one that, like, broke into David Bowie’s mansion and got his eyeliner, and he’s wearing his eyeliner there. I don’t understand this; I’m just a simple caveman lawyer, and dudes don’t go around talking about other guys this way.”

“It is clearly an obsession with him. And again, it’s just totally fine if you’re obsessed with men, you’re obsessed with men. I don’t understand it, but you know,” he added.

“It’s not even innuendo anymore,” Geist noted.

“It’s not innuendo, it’s explicit,” Scarborough agreed. “And he’s doing the motions last night.”
