MSNBC’s Morning Joe hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski have suddenly decided they want to be all diplomatic with president-elect Donald Trump, after openly calling him a nazi days before the election, and it has not gone down well for them at all.
The pair announced that they travelled to Mar-a-Lago to meet personally with Trump, with Scarborough saying “It was the first time we have seen him in seven years,” adding “We talked about a lot of issues, including abortion, mass deportation, threats of political retribution against political opponents and media outlets. We talked about that a good bit.”
You were literally crying and saying Trump was a fascist nazi two weeks ago. The only time anyone sees you is on X when we're all laughing at how F*cking crazy you sound. https://t.co/J6GqzS9BqL

They took a look at their tanking ratings and decided to go meet up with ‘literally Hitler’ and see if they can “restart communication.”

Morning Joe now: We met with Trump at Mar-a-Lago to settle our differences. pic.twitter.com/UkfMt9ScuP
Suffice to say, this hasn’t played well with anyone, from Trump supporters, all the way over to shit-libs and everyone in between.
Mika & Joe’s own viewers are viscerally disgusted with them. Which is funny.
Hahahahahaaaa 🤣🤣🤣

And their own MSNBC colleagues are disgusted with them. Which is also funny.
You’re deluded.

You’re in a dying industry with a tiny and shrinking audience.
You don’t have the power to normalize or not normalize Trump.
Whatever you do doesn’t matter.
He's been elected President twice.

He was "normalized" years ago ... by the VOTERS.
You folks in the media aren't the arbiters of what's "normal" ... WE are.https://t.co/2F04teocgf
Absolutely mental leftists are disgusted with Mika & Joe for shrinking the screeching echo chamber even smaller. Which is also funny.
Fuck Joe & Mika.

Fuck Morning Joe.
And fuck MSNBC if they keep them on the fucking air.
You're... surprised?

For 25 years I've been saying Scarborough is a creature free of morality or ethics. For 25 years, he's proved me right. pic.twitter.com/jWnVjFw6B1
Even the cackling witches on The View, perhaps the most clownish ‘journalists’ out there, were laughing at Mika & Joe, with Sunny Hostin declaring they went to see Trump to “kiss his ring” commenting “they’re not journalists in the true sense.”

American Enterprise Institute’s Matthew Continetti pointed out that Joe & Mika are acting as if they went on a pilgrimage to conduct “international diplomacy.”

Nikki Haley said of Mika & Joe that “the truth is, it’s not that they suddenly saw the light. It’s that they saw the ratings.”
“I mean, let’s be clear. They saw the ratings tank and they realized, oh, we better get on with Donald Trump or else we’re not going to have a show,” Haley asserted.
Begging Trump for their media careers is all they have left.🤣

By far the most epic and brutal reaction, however, came from Megyn Kelly, who urged “I searched for a way to respond appropriately and I called on my 10 years as a litigator, in addition to my now 20 as a journalist, and I think I found the perfect phrase… Go fuck yourselves.”
“Go fuck yourselves, you dishonest jokes of faux journalists,” Kelly steamed, adding “What an absurd farce.”
Discussing the issue with journalist Glenn Greenwald, Kelly noted “How long have they been telling us that he’s (Trump’s) an existential threat, that he’s a Hitleresque figure, that he’s a fascist, that women will die – will die! – if he gets elected?” she seethed. “Well, they’ve done a 180. They’ve done a 180 as their ratings circle the bowl. This is so juicy.”
Greenwald declared that “Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski are the most humiliating and pathetic people in all of corporate media, and I realise there’s a lot of serious contenders for that crown… Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski don’t believe in anything other than their own career, in their own ratings.”
“I never thought I’d utter these words, but I agree with Keith Olbermann. Keith Olbermann’s reaction is my reaction,” Kelly quipped.
It’s worth watching the entire segment:
There’s no doubt, we just discovered who the absolute worst people in media are.
Reports suggest that Comcast is putting MSNBC up for sale, and you can bet that these two know their days are numbered. They’ve put together a desperate exit strategy, but lets face it they’re absolutely fucked.
And it’s glorious.
