Sounds an awful lot like  Scarbrough  shouted  âF*ck Trump!â
However   Scarbrough himself  took to Twitter late Monday night  and disputed that interpretation of what  he  said  Instead   Scarbrough  claims that  he  shouted  âF*ck Georgia!â
If yâall really listen I said Georgia smh about yâall people in this world https://t.co/VXKFBk7Vnh â Bo Scarbrough (@starbo06) January 9  2018
Now  from a distance  in a crowded hallway with multiple people yelling  itâs easy to see how one could misinterpret what someone else said. However  letâs start with the claim that  Scarbrough  said âGeorgia.â
As Breitbart Deputy Political Editor Amanda House noted  âGeorgiaâ is a two-syllable word. Even accounting for different accents and dialects  a syllable is a syllable; and whatever  Scarbrough  said   it  was only one syllable.
Which causes problems for  his  explanation that  he  said a two-syllable word like âGeorgia.â Georgia also starts with a âG â and the beginning of the word  Scarbrough  shouted after  he  yelled âF*ck â seemed to clearly make a âTRâ or âCHâ type of sound.
Breitbart reported the  Scarbrough  story last night  as him saying  âF*ck Trump!â
While we have updated that story to reflect Scarbroughâs explanation  in addition to adding this piece  this is not retraction. It is still my belief that  Scarbrough  said âTrump â and not âGeorgia.â
