Joe Scarborough

When last week Mika Brzezinski said that she and Joe Scarborough would like to have a face-to-face meeting with Trump, I wrote: "As for scoring an interview with Trump himself any time soon, don't bet the rent money at Polymarkets on it, Mika!" Oy, was I wrong! On today's Morning Joe, Mika announced that this past Friday, she and Joe did indeed meet with Trump at Mar-a-Lago. 

Morning Joe notes the compliments it has received, including from Trump supporters, on the "calm and measured" way it reported Trump's win, and Mika Brzezinski says "we will continue our best efforts to be fair and objective in reporting on the incoming administration." She adds that the show will "of course" invite members of the Trump administration on the show, and would like to have a face…

Attempting to undercut Trump's nomination of Pete Hegseth as Defense Secretary, Morning Joe misled on the key issue of the physical fitness of female soldiers. After playing a clip of Hegseth expressing his opposition to women in combat, the show brought on NBC national security editor David Rohde, who said: "I think clips like the one you played will raise major issues. There are women in…

On Monday's Morning Joe, New Republic editor Michael Tomasky, as per his current New Republic column, said that the "real reason" for Kamala Harris' defeat is that the right-wing media is more influential than the liberal media! No doubt the conservative media is considerably stronger and more prevalent than it was in the pre-National Review days. But more…

Appearing as a guest on the Election Day edition of Morning Joe, MSNBC host Joe Scarborough joined contributor Michael Beschloss in fretting that a Donald Trump win would result in less freedom of speech. He also falsely asserted that Trump  "said he was going to execute Liz Cheney," and put down MAGA Republicans, declaring that they "apparently didn't go to civics class."

Throughout the Biden-then-Harris campaign, Joe Scarborough had been an all-in flunky, an avid supporter, and a virulent critic of Trump. But now that Kamala has lost, on today's Morning Joe Scarborough suddenly became an objective critic, condemning the failure of the Democrats to understand and connect with Americans and their valid concerns. 

The morning after the election, "Mourning" Mika is dressed all in black. Claire McCaskill is near tears, saying Trump understood the electorate better than the Democrats, that "anger and fear" work, and that America's "better angels" have fled. Al Sharpton blames racial and gender bias, and says there's a lot of "misogyny" among black and Hispanic men.

On Election Day, trying to build optimism for Kamala Harris, Joe Scarborough brags that she has "900,000" volunteers in Pennsylvania. A recent Time magazine article suggests the true number is 110,000, and an internet search suggests that Scarborough used the total number of Kamala volunteers in the entire country!

On Morning Joe, although the lie has been thoroughly debunked by people across the the political spectrum, Joe Scarborough twice claimed that Trump called for Liz Cheney to be executed by a firing squad.

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough tries to laugh off Joe Biden having called Trump supporters "garbage." Scarborough puts on a big, fake, smile and chuckles in reaction.

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough accuses Donald Trump of using the death of a boy in Springfield, Ohio as a "political prop." The boy was killed when a Haitian migrant, who did not have a driver's license, slammed into the boy's school bus. But Scarborough insists on keeping onscreen a front-page, 5,300-word New York Times article about it that is harshly critical of Trump. Scarborough then…

On Morning Joe, reacting to Trump having called America a "garbage can for the world," Joe Scarborough breaks out a variation on America, love it or leave it. He says: "If anybody believes that America is a garbage can, that's voting this election, they're just stupid. They just don't know the facts. They may want to move somewhere else if they think it's such a hellhole."

ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel recently joined MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough for an interview that aired on the Wednesday edition of Morning Joe. Throughout the two-part interview, Scarborough and Kimmel would discuss the latter’s career and their mutual loathing of Donald Trump, with Kimmel going so far as to say, “If you're a reasonable person, you should have Trump Derangement Syndrome.”

Of course, we all know the media aren’t lobbying for Musk to be locked away because they care so deeply about election integrity. For them, this isn’t about election integrity at all; it’s about Trump. Musk is aiding the media’s most hated enemy, and for that, they want to destroy him.
