"There is no one in this family that has ever run a political campaign before or picked a vice president," Scarborough said on "Morning Joe."

"That is exactly why you get your family out of management, or at least have them managing with someone that actually has done it before."

You've never done this before, and, yes, you won the Republican primary, but to suggest that just because you're close as a family that you all alone can run this without somebody ... is handing the presidency to [presumptive Democratic presidential nominee] Hillary Clinton Hillary Diane Rodham ClintonBiden leads Trump by 36 points nationally among Latinos: poll Democratic super PAC to hit Trump in battleground states over coronavirus deaths Battle lines drawn on precedent in Supreme Court fight MORE."



"If the Republicans want to beat Hillary Clinton, it is time to bring in professionals who have done this since 'Happy Days' was in prime time."
