Joe Scarborough Explains Why Donald Trump is Freaking Out About Biden's Drop Out

During a Monday segment on Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough mocked Donald Trump's freakout over Joe Biden leaving the race. 

Donald Trump spent the last month feeling like he would earn an easy victory over Joe Biden. And the poll numbers said that Trump could very well be right. But on Sunday, Biden dropped out of the race, making Kamala Harris his likely successor. And there is already tons of excitement over the possibility of her run. 

The host began:

"All right, I will tell you, there's some Republicans in there freaking out. I mean, you know, here's the thing, like, if the other side is freaking out and going crazy, you know you've got them where you want them. Democrats have to be feeling pretty good this morning. I had heard from inside the Trump campaign for some time right now that the one thing Donald Trump feared was not having Joe Biden."

Scarborough continued, "this was the one thing that sort of had him melting down," Scarborough said. "Most people say that over the last month, he's been more serene than usual, since the trial, he's been a little calmer than usual. But the one thing that got to him was the idea he might not be running against Biden."

The Morning Joe host closed by saying momentum is shifting, "But, again, the fact they're freaking out so much has to excite a Democratic Party that was really at its lowest ebb of any party I've seen since, let's say Watergate."
