OUCH! Joe Scarborough's 'righteous indignation' on guns gets SMOKED (by his own congressional voting record)

MSNBC Morning Joe co-host Joe Scarborough has been very vocal about gun control in the wake of the school shooting in Florida that left 17 dead and many more injured:

“We Americans?”

-95% of Americans want stronger background checks
-75% want military-style weapons banned
-75% of Americans don’t own a gun
-3% own half of all guns

AND EVEN SCALIA refused to rule that the 2nd Amendment applied to military-styled weapons. https://t.co/All84szImf

-80% of Americans support bans on assault-style weapons.
-90% support tougher background checks. https://t.co/sXX8iWZYCs

With that in mind, The Weekly Standard’s Jay Cost did a little digging into Scarborough’s days in Congress:

Put on some protective gear, because it’s about to get real:

Good thread on the absolute, incredible hypocrite @JoeNBC is.

He never admits this. He lies to his audience. And if he thinks blood is on the hands of the Republicans…he should look in the mirror first to see who to blame. https://t.co/AXcrlH1ydW
