From the February 25 edition of MSNBC's Morning Joe:

SCARBOROUGH: I've been telling conservatives for about two years. This guy is bad for the movement.

[...]

This guy is losing it before our eyes. He's bad for the conservative movement. He's bad for the Republican Party. He's bad for Fox News. It's that simple. I mean, Mike, he is detached.

[...]

The damage is there and we've talked about it on this show. Richard, when he called the president a racist. I mean, he throws bombs out all the time, and it is the conspiracy theories as Robert Wright has suggested in The New York Times that are most dangerous because that gets people acting out in ways that in the end could hurt: Hurt politicians, hurt other people in the political world.
