Chuck Todd and Joe Scarborough got into a fierce fight on Thursday over the father of American soldier Bowe Bergdahl.

Scarborough criticized Robert Bergdahl for some of his actions surrounding his son's capture. Todd intervened.

“Don’t criticize the parents,” Todd said. “Don’t criticize the parents that are missing a child! Their son is missing for five years. You know what? It is not logical...I’m not backseat driving how someone parents."

"Any good father would not tell their son to follow their conscience and leave men and women on the line!" Scarborough said.

“So he’s a bad father?” Todd asked. "Yes he is!" Scarborough fired back.
