MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough on Wednesday labeled tweets from President Trump, including one that appeared to be a call for an investigation into a dead staffer found in the former GOP congressman’s office in 2001, as “bizarre.”

The “Morning Joe” host declared the president is “not well.”

“Looks like I picked a good day to stop responding to Trump’s bizarre tweets,” Scarborough wrote to his 1.96 million followers.

“He is not well,” he added.

n a tweet calling for Scarborough and MSNBC president Phil Griffin to be terminated in the wake of “Today” host Matt Lauer’s firing over a sexual misconduct allegation, the president mentioned an “‘unsolved mystery’ that took place in Florida years ago.”

The president was referring to Lori Klausutis, a 28-year-old office staffer who worked for Scarborough while he was in Congress and was found dead in his district office in July 2001.

A local medical examiner ruled the death an accident, saying Klausutis had collapsed and hit her head on the side of a desk. She had an undiagnosed heart condition, according to the medical examiner, and the head trauma caused a fatal blood clot.
