The hosts of the “Morning Joe” television show are questioning US President Donald Trump’s “unmoored behaviour” after he lashed out at them in a Twitter rant this week.

“This is absolutely nothing for me personally. But I’m very concerned about what this once again reveals about the president of the United States.”
Scarborough said on air: “We’re OK. The country is not.”
