If the genders were reversed, Mika Brzezinksi would likely be accused of sexism following an attack she leveled today on the White House.
"Let me just say there are no real men in the inner circle of the White House, none at all," the MSNBC host declared Wednesday morning. "This is true."
The comments came during a discussion about a recent cabinet meeting, during which some members of the administration expressed their support for the president.
Brzezinski claimed the expression of support for Trump is "worse" than North Korea.
(In North Korea, for context, Kim Jung Un recently killed five members of his inner circle with anti-aircraft guns, flame throwers, and mortars for being insufficiently supportive of his dictatorship.)
"Let’s say what this is, it’s worse than dear leader," Brzezinski said. "There’s a lot of bad stuff in there going on including lies, misinformation. The president likes to talk about fake news. He makes fake news by saying things like that, by lying about his accomplishments.”
Her co-panelist, Jeffrey Goldberg, said that he's covered several presidential administrations and other presidents would not have accepted such praise.
"Obama would have just back of the hand to that kind of thing," Goldberg said. "It was odd. I’m comfortable calling it un-American."
