'Morning Joe' guest slams Trump's 'physically disgusting to look at' appearance in epic on-air rant

Updated

"Morning Joe" guest Donny Deutsch erupted live on air on MSNBC Friday over President Trump's recent attack on co-host Mika Brzezinski, challenging the president and slamming him as "physically disgusting to look at" and a "vulgar pig."

"I have to tell you this. I'm not an employee of NBC so I'm going to go thug here. I'm sorry" Deutsch said after show regular Willie Geist recapped the president's attack on Brzezinski including claiming she had a "low I.Q."

"Because Mika is a friend of ours. She's a good woman. She's a great mom and he's a pig. He's a vulgar pig. Michelle Obama says when they go low we go high. We he goes low, I'm going low. You guys can take the high road."

Reactions to Trump's attack on Brzezinski:

Following Deutsch's initial comment the panel looked visibly uncomfortable, but he continued to slam the president saying, "He's physically disgusting to look at. That's what I find ironic about the way he starts to always going after other people's physical attributes," Deutsch raged.

"He's not mentally ok. This is a man, we have to start paying attention to it and he's disgusting to look at."

Geist then challenged that Deutsch further lowered "the discourse" by insulting Trump's "physical appearance."

"You know it absolute does," he responded. "I'm taking the low ground here. You know what. He goes after a woman that way. He goes after a friend that way. He is a vulgar human being. He is vulgar to look at. He is disgusting the way he behaves himself as president."

Later in the program Deutsch challenges the president to a actual fight. "Donald if you're watching, we're from Queens. I'll meet you in the schoolyard, brother."

Deutsch ended his rant admitting that it might have cost him his spot on the show.

"I'm sorry, I probably won't be on the show again."
