McEnany defended President Trump during a conference on Tuesday, saying that the president was not the first to accuse Scarborough of murdering his wife. In 2017, Trump brought up the decade-old conspiracy theory about an intern's death in Scarborough's office, and then again more recently these past few weeks.

Even prior to this argument, both Trump and Scarborough had a deep-seated feud, and he'd taken to his morning show to base his criticism on the administration. Apparently, that only led to more problems, especially since President Trump appeared to firmly believe that Scarborough had something to do with Klausutis's death. "Did he get away with murder?" On his Twitter account, he wondered when Scarborough's "cold case" would be reopened in Florida. "Some people think so." She went on to say that Mika Brzezinski, co-host of the MSNBC and wife of Scarborough, held Trump accountable for the 100,000 coronavirus deaths in the United States.

"That's incredibly irresponsible," McEnany said. She added that it was Scarborough who must answer the questions and be held responsible for their "falsehoods". She also cited Scarborough's 2003 interview with radio personality Don Imus. In the clip, Scarborough might have laughed at a rude remark made by Imus regarding politicians killing interns, which appeared to be done in bad taste.

McEnany said that this might have offended Klausutis' family, telling the media that Scarborough should answer this. She added that their "hearts" were with Klausutis' family.

It was not only Scarborough that she targeted. She also criticized Brzezinski.

Psycho Joe's "cold case"

Trump claimed in a series of social media posts that Scarborough was responsible for the death of intern Lori Klausutis, who was found dead in his congressional office in 2001. At the time, the opposition party slew Scarborough with allegations of Klausutis' death, but he was working in Washington, D.C., as a Republican Congressman when she died.

Although Trump called the incident a "cold case" when he started accusing Scarborough of murder, the autopsy of Klausutis' death showed her death was not done in cold bold. According to reports by the Associated Press, it was revealed that Klausutis had an undiagnosed heart condition, which caused her to fall as she passed out. She died from an injury sustained by the fall. The widower, Timothy Klausutis, wrote a letter to Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey asking the social media giant to take down Trump's tweets about his late wife.

He explained that her passing was the most painful thing he had to deal with in his life, and that her family was still heartbroken about it. He wanted to honor her by protecting her memory. "My request is simple," he wrote in the letter on May 21, "please delete the tweets."

In response, Dorsey said he would not be able to delete the tweets as of yet, but he reassured that updates with new rules and regulations were coming their direction.
