The sun had not been up for an hour when the president of the United States, in his ninth tweet of the day, said MSNBC anchor Joe Scarborough might be a murderer. He has a long-running feud with the “Morning Joe” husband-and-wife team of Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski. The circumstances of Klausutis’s death have spawned conspiracy theories, but authorities never suspected foul play. Klausutis’s death on July 20, 2001, was ruled accidental and the police concluded there was no reason to further investigate. Trump in his tweet asked why Scarborough had left Congress so “quickly and quietly,” implying a connection between Klausutis’s death and Scarborough’s resignation.
