"A total nut job!” #1009 - a podcast by Playback Media Ltd

Yesterday President Trump, leader of the free world explicitly accused a televsion broadcaster of murder with the following tweet,
“When will they open a Cold Case on the Psycho Joe Scarborough matter in Florida. Did he get away with murder? Some people think so. Why did he leave Congress so quietly and quickly? Isn’t it obvious? What’s happening now? A total nut job!”
Trump was referring to the 2001 death of Lori Klausutis, who worked as a staffer in Scarborough’s office when he served as a Republican House lawmaker.
Miss Klausutis’ autopsy revealed she had an undiagnosed heart condition, and a coroner concluded she died after passing out and hitting her head in a fall. Scarborough was in Washington DC at the time of her death.
The tweet has received 30,000 Retweets and 105,000 Likes and far from going quietly he is now the anchor of a hit TV named after him. The tweet has been liked by just 0.13% of his Twitter followers.
Scholars of propaganda have noted that this is an extreme deflection technique to divert attention away from the President's terrible record handling of the COVID19 pandemic, which has now claimed 83,115 american lives, if figures are to be believed.
