MSNBC host Joe Scarborough shared a list of his top three “heroes” of the “Trump Era” — and his picks are certainly interesting.
Admitting that “‘hero’ is a strong word for people doing their jobs,” Scarborough tweeted that his heroes of the Trump era are reporters, judges, and John McCain.
"Hero" is a strong word for people doing their jobs, but in no particular order….
1. Reporters
2. Judges
3. John McCain https://t.co/IbJLVQPlEJ— Joe Scarborough (@JoeNBC) August 21, 2017
Scarborough followed with another tweet piling on extra praise for The New York Times and The Washington Post.
History will look at the work of reporters at the NYTimes, Washington Post & other outlets & remember it as a high water mark for the press. https://t.co/sAhTbuo4Xc

The responses were predictably critical of Scarborough’s list, especially since he chose not to include armed forces, police officers, and other Americans who put themselves in harm’s way to protect their country.
The real hero is my stomach for being able to keep my lunch down after reading this tweet. https://t.co/ONmp4V94bI
