*All of their guests make funny lil comments like Frum made. Why all of a sudden are they chastising their guests now and trying to take away their first amendment rights?*
I loved her so much and now I would not watch that show if my life depended on it screw these silver spoon rich pricks unwilling to any sacrifice anything to speak truth to power but first they had to check how the that would affect THEM and went to kiss the ring and said STATE TV SOUNDS PERFECT UNDER KING TRUMP! Traitors !!
I’m glad David wrote his piece and glad he made the choice of parting ways with coming on Morning Joe. He’s not the first guest to say they will no longer come on.
Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski’s decision to meet with Donald Trump reeks of desperation, hypocrisy, and outright betrayal of their own credibility. For years, they have painted Trump for what he truly is-a criminal sociopath with a decades-long record of corruption, ineptitude, and harm to the American people. They’ve denounced his lies, his authoritarian tendencies, his staggering incompetence, and his brazen disregard for human life-mismanagement of COVID alone cost hundreds of thousands of lives. They know all this. They've said all this. But now? They waltz down to Mar-a-Lago as if this is just another day at the office, shaking hands with the very man they’ve called a threat to democracy. Let’s call this what it is: a complete capitulation to power. Whether it’s to preserve their cushy MSNBC jobs or to court ratings from Trump’s cult-like base, it’s beyond disgusting. It’s moral bankruptcy, plain and simple. Trump’s legacy is a mountain of lies and destruction-trillions wasted, allies alienated, American lives lost, and democracy nearly toppled. Over 200 psychiatrists and psychologists have documented his unfitness for office. Generals, aides, family members, and even his closest allies have described him as dangerously unqualified and unhinged. Scarborough and Brzezinski themselves have spent years echoing this truth, ripping him apart for his crimes and incompetence. And now, suddenly, they want to "restart communications"? What’s next-kissing the ring? There’s no excuse. None. This isn’t diplomacy. This isn’t journalism. This is complicity. By legitimizing Trump with this meeting, Joe and Mika spit on every person who suffered under his administration. They spit on the truth, on their audience, and on the principles they claim to uphold. They validate the very man who turned the presidency into a circus of chaos and criminality. The fact is, Trump remains the same sociopath they’ve condemned for years-unfit, unrepentant, and uninterested in anything but his own gain. Meeting with him now, after all the damage he’s done, isn’t just tone-deaf; it’s a slap in the face to every American who values decency, accountability, and justice. Joe and Mika have shown their true colors, and it’s not pretty. They’ve chosen power over principle, access over integrity. It’s shameful, it’s sickening, and it’s unforgivable. There is no middle ground when dealing with a man like Trump. Either you stand against him or you stand complicit in his madness. Scarborough and Brzezinski have made their choice, and history will judge them harshly for it.
Alright, let’s get blunt and call it as it is. If Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski, who spent a decade loudly denouncing Trump as a dangerous fascist and existential threat to democracy, suddenly go crawling to his doorstep for a private meeting, it reeks of desperation, hypocrisy, and self-serving manipulation. This isn't journalism; it’s opportunism. They didn’t go on-camera, didn’t make it an interview, didn’t challenge Trump openly-no, they slithered in behind the scenes, betraying their audience and colleagues. Joe, a former politician, should know optics matter, and the optics here are as bad as it gets. It screams, "We’re hedging our bets in case Trump regains power, and we want to secure our position." For years, "Morning Joe" positioned itself as a moral high ground, a bastion against Trumpism, calling him out for his lies, authoritarian tendencies, and divisive rhetoric. And now? A closed-door meeting at Mar-a-Lago? If you denounce someone as a fascist for a decade, you don’t suddenly play footsie under the table when they might hold the reins again. That’s not bravery; it’s cowardice. Let’s not sugarcoat it-this reeks of them trying to manipulate the situation for their benefit, whether it's to protect themselves from Trump’s vengeance or to stay relevant in a world where Trump’s shadow looms large. Whatever their motives, they just undermined every ounce of credibility they’ve built. They’ve handed Trump a PR win, tarnished MSNBC’s brand, and sold out their audience, who tuned in expecting principled resistance, not backroom schmoozing. And let’s be clear, Trump will exploit this for everything it’s worth. He thrives on making critics grovel, turning dissenters into pawns. Scarborough and Brzezinski have played right into his hands. This isn't savvy-it’s spineless. Whatever deal they think they’re cutting, they’ve lost the one thing that matters most: trust.
They are not journalists. They are on air personalities. And as non-journalists, there was no reason to go to have a meeting with him. They bent the knee. Period.
The Morning Joe Show needs to go. Bad enough they bent the knee to Trump, but then to make a comment sticking up for"the very fine people" at Fox Faux News is ridiculous! MSNBC needs to cancel Morning Joe. Joe and Mika have lost ALL credibility. They should be cancelled.
The show should be canceled for their lack of credibility, but to "cancel" people is a tired term and practice that's obviously ineffective. Let's just shame them when talking about them.

@@tulsacaupain2882 The commenter’s point, with which I concurred, is that Joe’s scolding was inappropriate, not that either of us were impressed by it. To the contrary! I watched Morning Joe regularly because I thought Joe and Mika had courage and integrity. Sadly, recent events have shown that that is not the case. I am gone, as is the case with many other former viewers.
If Trump had the DOJ open a case on Joe Scarborough his self righteous image he likes to portray daily may uncover somethings he would not like revealed.
I..do NOT...have THE words, for them defending fox news! WTF!? I got so excited to listen to them every morning, especially Joe, giving his side on how DT handled himself! He was very out-spoken, and hated everything DT represented, and now there DEFENDING THEM(fox news)!!!!!!😡 No!....just no! I'm just done watching them! I want a FULL apology from them!
Joe and Meka! I can not believe THEY went to orange thing to SAVE THEIR JOBS! Period! They didn't THINK about the rest of MSNBC staff/ team! It was such BETRAYRAL! Selfish! Joe need not to preach journalist JOB to me! Threats from orange thing made ya’ll go and kiss….! Bye Joe and Meka
J and M don’t stand for anything. Frum couldn’t miss this opportunity, it was perfect. He doesn’t need CNN, or MSNBC. We’re tired of so many mealy mouthed hosts.
Not all msnbc have bent the knee to Trump that are journalists. I've heard Rachel Maddow, Chris Hayes, Ari Melber, Joy Reid & Lawrence O'Donnell are very upset with Mika & Joe. Though I myself have cut down my news intake especially with politics.
I stopped watching them over a year ago. I didn't realize their propaganda til I quit getting a daily dose. After detoxing, it was so obvious. CNN, too. They are corporate and political zionist propaganda. It's no wonder America is so messed up. We're all brainwashed by corporate media, including FOX.
This is the time when courage is needed more than ever before, this is no time for weakness, how are folks going to know the difference between truth and lies if your not willing to fight for the truth to be heard!
Chat too much! All he does is yap, yap, yap, yap, yap,yap. Like he’s purposely trying to wear down the viewers. And Don’s right - if what they were doing was right, they wouldn’t keep justifying it…smh
I quit mainstream media in 2008! I saw this coming years ago. I was frustrated many of you took so long to get TF out. Happy you are doing your own thing Don.
Don Lemon was one of the few I saw no longer wanting to play the game and started saying what was really on his mind and I was proud of him, but worried CNN couldn't handle the truth!
🎯We aren’t doing “what about”, we’re not making excuses, and they are not going pee on our leg and tell us it’s raining! As Kamala said to a heckler “You’re at the wrong rally!”
Actually Mika..we would have known about your little meeting because Trump or someone on his team would have told everyone! You told people for damage control!!😂
But they still have not discussed the specifics of their conversation only broadly that they talked about abortion and disagreed with trump..Could they not even record the conversation like Bob Woodward does or even take notes ..They just wanted to save their asses and have a backup for when comcast sells MSNBC. Maybre Joe is still trying to get a WH job like in trumps first term..Sickening
I'm done with Morning Joe- the reasons are clear and shared by their viewers. The notion that anyone would need to extend an apology to Faux News is not only ridiculous, but truly makes me sick to my soul.
My jaw dropped when I saw Mika’s grovelling apology for David Frumm speaking the truth. I have never watched the show again. It’s time to shut them down and replace them with a person(s) who have integrity and a backbone.
It was offensive to Trump so Mika and Joe had to call it out for that reason only! They are such cowards for crawling to Trump and have lost all credibility with many viewers! There was nothing wrong with Frum’s remark!
Mika and Joe and their fake outrage is hypocritical. They are just covering their asses because they're about to take MSNBC down the drain. They've lost 50%of their viewers and bending the knee and kissing the ring did it.
Thank you for playing Mr. Frums complete comment. Everyone is taking it out of context when he made a very excellent point. Reprimanding him was despicable. These people are cowards!
DAVID FRUM IS RIGHT. Joe and Mika have lost all credibility and should not be taken seriously.. Joe Scarborough went on a 22-minute rant trying to justify their BS. If I were David Frum, I would never go on their show again. How can he trust them or their wack-ass producers at this point? Joe and Mika are pathetic. It is sad to see what they have become.
When you know you've done something wrong but refuse to face the consequence, you tend to play the victim and lash out! They are acting exactly like Trump would have.
The only reason those two told us about the meeting is SOMEBODY saw them there and they decided to try and get in front of it before someone else put their pictures on blast. If those liars were really trying to be transparent they would have told the public BEFORE they went!!
Joe Scarborough does not bully me! I have never liked him. He and Mika are not journalists and Joe used to bully Mika on the air before they were married! I remember that well! Why do they still even have a show?
I think you're right Don. Audiences can sniff out shiftiness and inauthenticity. People are favoring independent sources who aren't held back by suits behind the scenes or worried about corporate, for better or for worse.
For years, I’ve watched Morning Joe with excitement, enthusiasm and most of all, trust. This show gave me, what felt like a balanced view and not necessarily what I wanted to hear. It was sobering and needed. They have betrayed my trust. I have no desire to watch them. Even seeing this small clip made my stomach turn. After everything Trump has done to them, personally. They made fun of every Republican that kissed the ring. Heck, Joe left the party. They sold their souls and expect their viewers to follow. No, thanks!
Stopped watching when they kissed DT's backside when he was 1st time Prez, got into a disagreement, DT made fun of Mika's facelift then they shifted back again to not liking him. They have no scruples and glad they've shown folk AGAIN who they really are!
@@carbar3936first time around, they kept saying he was acting and that wasn’t the man they knew. I gave them the benefit of the doubt because I didn’t think he/it could be as bad as it was. He was meeting with people from both sides of the aisle. He hired generals and some solid folks to be part of his cabinet. The whole thing of Joe being accused of murder and what Trump said about his wife. There’s no coming back from that. It’s scary.
I felt same way and supported their show for years. I enjoyed the various perspectives and thought they had some amazing guests for an early morning news show. Watching their announcement a few weeks ago made my stomach sick. If they had done an exclusive interview to get 'A read of the man', as Joe described, maybe I could've understood the purpose of meeting Trump. Their continued berating at audience makes it worse because it's as if they believe their fan base is as loyal to them as a MAGA Rally Attendee is to Trump. Must be a rude awakening for them to discover their audience really do have certain core ideals/beliefs and don't roll over so quickly in cowardice and fear. It seemed like they were after 2 things: trying to get easier access to the next administration with all the perks that come with it and to see if they are on Trump's Naughty List and if they can schmooze their way out of being one of the 'Enemies Within'. Most of Joe & Mikas fans don't have millions of dollars with an elitist persona to boast while allowing their ID Complex to play around without consequences. Whatever the reasoning, one thing's for sure, they completely misunderstood the pulse of their fan base and how strong the loyalty they have to democratic constitutional values that we thought Morning Joe had shared. Hopefully, some of the filler co-hosts and regular guests I enjoy are not as wrapped up in their selfish/ego boasting stunt and able to bounce back; especially if this show gets cancelled.
Frum is NEVER flippant! He calls a spade a spade! And is also Canadian by birth, of a beloved Canadian journalist, Barbara Frum. I have always agreed with him but he ❤States his opinion clearly. He worked with Bush and so has a solid understanding of GOP government.
David Frum is my hero to speak out and stand on his principles Too bad Joe and Mica couldn’t do the same Is their next gig FOX News to the nice people they have have
Why are we still having to listen to them? They had the right to go wherever they pleased. And we the people have the right to not watch them. As, Mika said, Why not?
The issue I have is that Joe keeps saying that he visits with all of these people so that he can share what was talked about with the viewer. However, he still hasn't shared what they talked about. Also, the only reason they mentioned the visit is because they didn't want Trump to mention it first, because he would have put his own spin on it.
David Frum's comment was not flippant. He said out loud what many people were thinking.
David Frum is a true and honest journalist. Media mainstream will miss him
More like spot on.
*All of their guests make funny lil comments like Frum made. Why all of a sudden are they chastising their guests now and trying to take away their first amendment rights?*
Agree 💯💯💯💯 David deal's with truth
Good bye Mika and yucky Joe 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
I will never watch Morning Joe again.
I haven't since they showed their true colours.
Don’t you mean “Mourning Joe”?
👍
No more respect for them here.
I'm done ✔️
For Mika Brzezinski to correct or call out a class act like David Frum is absolutely ridiculous.
It was Shameful
That was like the icing on the cake. It made their hypocrisy even more obvious. This is not “getting the read” on anything.
I loved her so much and now I would not watch that show if my life depended on it screw these silver spoon rich pricks unwilling to any sacrifice anything to speak truth to power but first they had to check how the that would affect THEM and went to kiss the ring and said STATE TV SOUNDS PERFECT UNDER KING TRUMP!

Sounds like they’re running scared, kissing the crown
That was pathetic. Frum's comment reflected how many of us feel.
Frum is correct
David Frum spoke the truth. Those two are pathetic. Their current behavior is the exact opposite of what they preach.
@@kimberlychandler6162 yup
Morning Joe producers being concerned about flippant remarks is…well…ironic. Nothing Frum said warranted an “apology.”
Morning Joe is DONE! Can’t take them seriously anymore.
THAT PART 🙏🏿
Agree 💯🎯‼️
Exactly. 👍🏾
Meek Mika's response to Frum's comments make her sound just like Trump when he said "There are good people on both sides. "

*You don't call a person the next Hitler and wannabe dictator then travel 1,128 MI and sit down to break bread with that person*
No you don’t. I believe they’re guilty of diff reasons for going to meet with him.

J and M cut a deal with Trump. "We'll be good to you, and you don't go after us." David Frum is always on point!
Just like Trump used to say "all the judges are horrible towards me - except one!"
Last thing I need is Joe screaming at me; telling me I'm to stupid to understand a news cycle. They need to go as soon as possible.
Not fired, not going back.

They’ve handed Trump a PR win, tarnished MSNBC’s brand, and sold out their audience, who tuned in expecting principled resistance, not backroom schmoozing. And let’s be clear, Trump will exploit this for everything it’s worth. He thrives on making critics grovel, turning dissenters into pawns. Scarborough and Brzezinski have played right into his hands. This isn't savvy-it’s spineless. Whatever deal they think they’re cutting, they’ve lost the one thing that matters most: trust.
Joe and Mika...YOU have screwed the pooch, plain and simple!!!
It is very concerning and disheartening what happened here. Another example why we are seeking news on youtube, substack, etc.
Mr. Frum was right on point/time.
I dont like to be scolded by Joe and his betrayal is disgusting!! They need to cancelled!! I will not watch them again!!
Ditto!
Who is impressed with a joe scolding. You must be real weak.
@@tulsacaupain2882 The commenter’s point, with which I concurred, is that Joe’s scolding was inappropriate, not that either of us were impressed by it. To the contrary! I watched Morning Joe regularly because I thought Joe and Mika had courage and integrity. Sadly, recent events have shown that that is not the case. I am gone, as is the case with many other former viewers.
If Trump had the DOJ open a case on Joe Scarborough his self righteous image he likes to portray daily may uncover somethings he would not like revealed.
Exactly
They need to go away. They have no credibility.
He has no more credibility on TV he's worse then Trump. He can say anything he wants I truly don't believe a word they say.
“On Tyranny” by Timothy Snyder; Chapter One ‘Do not obey in advance.’
I..do NOT...have THE words, for them defending fox news! WTF!? I got so excited to listen to them every morning, especially Joe, giving his side on how DT handled himself! He was very out-spoken, and hated everything DT represented, and now there DEFENDING THEM(fox news)!!!!!!😡 No!....just no! I'm just done watching them! I want a FULL apology from them!
BYE MEKA AND JOE, Y'ALL OBVIOUSLY DRINKING THE CULT JUICE 👋🏾
Orange juice.
Wipe your mouth from the kool-aid
Joe and Meka! I can not believe THEY went to orange thing to SAVE THEIR JOBS! Period! They didn't THINK about the rest of MSNBC staff/ team! It was such BETRAYRAL! Selfish! Joe need not to preach journalist JOB to me! Threats from orange thing made ya’ll go and kiss….! Bye Joe and Meka
It’s called “drinking the kool aid”!
David gave his opinion with a bit of sarcasm. Wasn’t offended in the least.
Joe and Mika are dragging down the whole network at this point.
People feel betrayed by them.
That’s because people ARE!!
J and M don’t stand for anything. Frum couldn’t miss this opportunity, it was perfect. He doesn’t need CNN, or MSNBC. We’re tired of so many mealy mouthed hosts.
They are shaking in their boots since Pumpkin Head is back in town.
They're so far in the crapper that they're on the defensive now. I stopped watching MSNBC immediately following their visit.
Me too the hypocrisy is too much.
Not all msnbc have bent the knee to Trump that are journalists. I've heard Rachel Maddow, Chris Hayes, Ari Melber, Joy Reid & Lawrence O'Donnell are very upset with Mika & Joe. Though I myself have cut down my news intake especially with politics.
I stopped watching them over a year ago. I didn't realize their propaganda til I quit getting a daily dose. After detoxing, it was so obvious. CNN, too. They are corporate and political zionist propaganda. It's no wonder America is so messed up. We're all brainwashed by corporate media, including FOX.
@@janinelemieux3099wow so have I. I went 3 weeks without watching news. It’s so depressing now and just negative.
@@janinelemieux3099replace Joe and Meka with the above mentioned. Rachael Maddow #1
Shocked. No, she did not need to say that. David Frum spoke truth.
Mika saying, in effect, "there are good people on both sides" is repugnant
Now she's using Trump's line! Pathetic, they were my morning news go to, not anymore 😲
This is the time when courage is needed more than ever before, this is no time for weakness, how are folks going to know the difference between truth and lies if your not willing to fight for the truth to be heard!
I will never watch Morning Joe again!!!
It's truly sickening!
The truth is the truth is the truth. No need to apologize for saying the truth.
Joe was yelling so much and he went on and on which only made it worse
Joe is a bully. This is not the first time he has gone on a major rant.
Chat too much! All he does is yap, yap, yap, yap, yap,yap. Like he’s purposely trying to wear down the viewers. And Don’s right - if what they were doing was right, they wouldn’t keep justifying it…smh
Yes- way too much yelling. Trying very hard to justify their trip.
They chose to go to kiss the ring. GTFOH Keith Olbermann has repeatedly told the truth about Scarborough.
Yep! Olberman was right all along about Scarborough.
What has he said? I have heard that he tried to to have the network hire Tiffany cross.
I can’t wait for Keith’s response to this
Keith has had Joey Scar’s number this whole time.
I believe they kissed something lower on Der Trump, and on his backside rear end.
I quit mainstream media in 2008! I saw this coming years ago. I was frustrated many of you took so long to get TF out. Happy you are doing your own thing Don.
Don Lemon was one of the few I saw no longer wanting to play the game and started saying what was really on his mind and I was proud of him, but worried CNN couldn't handle the truth!
They’re trying to explain away the guilt! But we’re not Trump fans, we have critical thinking skills
🎯We aren’t doing “what about”, we’re not making excuses, and they are not going pee on our leg and tell us it’s raining! As Kamala said to a heckler “You’re at the wrong rally!”
Actually Mika..we would have known about your little meeting because Trump or someone on his team would have told everyone! You told people for damage control!!😂
Exactly!
Exactly
But they still have not discussed the specifics of their conversation only broadly that they talked about abortion and disagreed with trump..Could they not even record the conversation like Bob Woodward does or even take notes ..They just wanted to save their asses and have a backup for when comcast sells MSNBC. Maybre Joe is still trying to get a WH job like in trumps first term..Sickening
My sentiments exactly.
Trump will have tell us Mica
WE ARE DONE WATCHING YOUR SHOW JOE SCARBOROUGH! POINT! BLANK! PERIOD!
No it was not warranted. It only makes them look worse if that is possible. BTW Miss you Don Lemon! Glad to find you here! I am subscribed!!!!
Bravo Dave Furman! 👏👏👏
Words of wisdom Joe and Mika, “When someone tells you who they are, believe them the first time”🤷🏽♂️
I'm done with Morning Joe- the reasons are clear and shared by their viewers. The notion that anyone would need to extend an apology to Faux News is not only ridiculous, but truly makes me sick to my soul.
My jaw dropped when I saw Mika’s grovelling apology for David Frumm speaking the truth. I have never watched the show again. It’s time to shut them down and replace them with a person(s) who have integrity and a backbone.
They’re fearful! That’s why they kissed the ring! Never going to watched their show again!!
If what Frum said was flippant, what then are all the things Trump said about them and MSNBC?
This is why we are in the situation that we are. It needs to be called out and now Mika and Joe want to apologize for the truth. Irritating AF!!!
This false equivalency is killing me! So they are trying to balance what is not "balancable"!
I still don’t understand what about his comment was so offensive.
It was offensive to Trump so Mika and Joe had to call it out for that reason only! They are such cowards for crawling to Trump and have lost all credibility with many viewers! There was nothing wrong with Frum’s remark!
@@PaulSmith-kx8cs Nothing was offensive! It was a sarcastic but true comment.
Agreed..he didn’t say anything wrong. It’s time to cancel their show.
Mika and Joe and their fake outrage is hypocritical. They are just covering their asses because they're about to take MSNBC down the drain. They've lost 50%of their viewers and bending the knee and kissing the ring did it.
It wasn't. They're sucking up to their soon to be new employer. FOX
NO MIKA!!!! YOU’RE WRONG.
If anything frum showed us how deeply flawed the orange man’s nominees are
I'm done with Joe and Mika. That private meeting with Trump is inexcusable.
Morning Joe is done! Period
When you’re scared, say you’re scared and then gird your courage and face your fear and present Truth to lies. Mr. Frum has it right.
MIka and Joe are not "journalists" but opinion hosts like Hannity and Laura Ingraham.
Sounds like Joe and Mika are auditioning for a job with Fox.
Bye, bye Joe....I am so disappointed 😔!
Thank you for playing Mr. Frums complete comment. Everyone is taking it out of context when he made a very excellent point. Reprimanding him was despicable. These people are cowards!
DAVID FRUM IS RIGHT. Joe and Mika have lost all credibility and should not be taken seriously.. Joe Scarborough went on a 22-minute rant trying to justify their BS. If I were David Frum, I would never go on their show again. How can he trust them or their wack-ass producers at this point? Joe and Mika are pathetic. It is sad to see what they have become.
They knew the meeting would be leaked. They just got out in front of it while pretending to be transparent. What a joke.
The cope is off the charts.
Joe & Mika knew that Frum’s comment would upset their Dear Leader. Joe & Mika leapt into action to soothe their Dear Leader and dissipate his fury.
Absolutely!
Just as he is soothing them by PRAISING their stupid programm. 'the circle ooooof a.skiss..g
I think they’re a good fit for Fox News.
AGREED!!
They will most likely try to pivot once they get fully canceled. Those two Boris and Natasha knockoffs have no integrity.
💯💯💯
@@TrangPakbaby The creeps might have a slot on RTV, the Roosie network!
@ Not one ounce…
When you know you've done something wrong but refuse to face the consequence, you tend to play the victim and lash out! They are acting exactly like Trump would have.
💯
I’m glad to see reporting again. Thank you.
The only reason those two told us about the meeting is SOMEBODY saw them there and they decided to try and get in front of it before someone else put their pictures on blast. If those liars were really trying to be transparent they would have told the public BEFORE they went!!
Fire them both!
They are interviewing for FOX because they know msnbc will be firing them for tucking tail and kissing ass.
Joe went on a full blown rant that you didn't show!
It was awful
Joe Scarborough does not bully me! I have never liked him. He and Mika are not journalists and Joe used to bully Mika on the air before they were married! I remember that well! Why do they still even have a show?
And that you don't need to hear. Its like a deflating tire
they need to go away for good.
I think you're right Don. Audiences can sniff out shiftiness and inauthenticity. People are favoring independent sources who aren't held back by suits behind the scenes or worried about corporate, for better or for worse.
If Joe Scarborough’s thumbs hadn’t turned me completely off about Morning Joe….this would have sealed the deal. Want no part of self serving cowards
Joe and Mika have turned themselves into a joke. This is embarrassing.
Never watching them ever again!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mika defending Fox with a straight face, and Joe's eyes burning into her profile! So done!🙄
So much for knowing your worth
WOW! What is happening? They need to just give up the show if this is what they're going to do.
Bending the knee
They keep making it worst.
The phrase “obeying in advance “ has been used a lot
They don't need to defend Fox News for any reason ever!
This is Joe’s karma for what he did to Tiffany Cross and the Cross connection show. Bye Joe✌️
They are not reporters, they are adults, they basicly are yelling and at their own fan.
They are kissing trump orange butt.
Kissing it Bigly
His butt is not orange, only his face is.
@ ha ha ha ha ha. I wouldn’t even want to imagine what the rest is. 🤮🤮🤮
For years, I’ve watched Morning Joe with excitement, enthusiasm and most of all, trust. This show gave me, what felt like a balanced view and not necessarily what I wanted to hear. It was sobering and needed.
They have betrayed my trust. I have no desire to watch them. Even seeing this small clip made my stomach turn. After everything Trump has done to them, personally. They made fun of every Republican that kissed the ring. Heck, Joe left the party.
They sold their souls and expect their viewers to follow. No, thanks!
Stopped watching when they kissed DT's backside when he was 1st time Prez, got into a disagreement, DT made fun of Mika's facelift then they shifted back again to not liking him. They have no scruples and glad they've shown folk AGAIN who they really are!
@@carbar3936first time around, they kept saying he was acting and that wasn’t the man they knew. I gave them the benefit of the doubt because I didn’t think he/it could be as bad as it was. He was meeting with people from both sides of the aisle. He hired generals and some solid folks to be part of his cabinet.
The whole thing of Joe being accused of murder and what Trump said about his wife. There’s no coming back from that. It’s scary.
I felt same way and supported their show for years. I enjoyed the various perspectives and thought they had some amazing guests for an early morning news show. Watching their announcement a few weeks ago made my stomach sick. If they had done an exclusive interview to get 'A read of the man', as Joe described, maybe I could've understood the purpose of meeting Trump. Their continued berating at audience makes it worse because it's as if they believe their fan base is as loyal to them as a MAGA Rally Attendee is to Trump. Must be a rude awakening for them to discover their audience really do have certain core ideals/beliefs and don't roll over so quickly in cowardice and fear.
It seemed like they were after 2 things: trying to get easier access to the next administration with all the perks that come with it and to see if they are on Trump's Naughty List and if they can schmooze their way out of being one of the 'Enemies Within'. Most of Joe & Mikas fans don't have millions of dollars with an elitist persona to boast while allowing their ID Complex to play around without consequences. Whatever the reasoning, one thing's for sure, they completely misunderstood the pulse of their fan base and how strong the loyalty they have to democratic constitutional values that we thought Morning Joe had shared.
Hopefully, some of the filler co-hosts and regular guests I enjoy are not as wrapped up in their selfish/ego boasting stunt and able to bounce back; especially if this show gets cancelled.
Frum is NEVER flippant! He calls a spade a spade! And is also Canadian by birth, of a beloved Canadian journalist, Barbara Frum. I have always agreed with him but he ❤States his opinion clearly. He worked with Bush and so has a solid understanding of GOP government.
Too flippant? Seriously? Wow, they have totally lost it and should be fired from MSNBC.
David Frum is my hero to speak out and stand on his principles
Too bad Joe and Mica couldn’t do the same
Is their next gig FOX News to the nice people they have have
I wouldn't be surprised if one day Joe & Mika completely disappear from MSNBC, and then a couple months later wind up working for Fox News.
Wait till January 2025. Bet you'll find them over there on Fox
Why are we still having to listen to them? They had the right to go wherever they pleased. And we the people have the right to not watch them. As, Mika said, Why not?
Joe and Mika are scared. That’s why they went.
They are hypocrites! Cowards!
The issue I have is that Joe keeps saying that he visits with all of these people so that he can share what was talked about with the viewer. However, he still hasn't shared what they talked about. Also, the only reason they mentioned the visit is because they didn't want Trump to mention it first, because he would have put his own spin on it.
You really can’t apologize for someone else any more than you can go to the bathroom for them.
