Scarborough's comments come as Trump continues to speak out about the close elections in Florida and Arizona.

On Friday, Trump tweeted that "electoral corruption" was going on in Arizona as officials tallied votes in the Senate race between Reps. Kyrsten Sinema (D) and Martha McSally (R).

He later alleged on Saturday that the Democrats were "trying to steal two big elections" in Florida, referring to the Senate and gubernatorial races.

Trump took a step further on Monday by calling for the mandated recounts in Florida to end, adding that “an honest vote count is no longer possible-ballots massively infected.”
