‘Morning Joe’ & MSNBC Make Changes After Joe Scarborough Meltdown
MSNBC and Morning Joe are getting a shake-up just days after host Joe Scarborough went on a 20-minute rant at critics who claimed he was trying to appease the incoming Trump administration.
As reported by Variety, NBC News’ Ali Vitali will leave her correspondent role in Washington to anchor the 5 am Way Too Early show, which serves as the lead-in to Morning Joe. Meanwhile, Jonathan Lemire, who currently anchors Way Too Early, will move to Morning Joe‘s 9 am hour as a permanent co-host alongside Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski.
Vitali, who has worked for NBC News for a decade covering politics, campaigns, and Capitol Hill, will start her Way Too Early role on January 6, per Variety.
In a statement, Vitali told the outlet she looks forward to “anchoring a show that’s been helmed by some of the smartest reporters in Washington,” adding, “I’ll continue working my sources and bringing viewers into the halls of power with fresh reporting and news-making interviews from Capitol Hill and across Washington.”

Vitali first joined MSNBC in 2012 as an intern, editor, and graphics producer before working her way up the ranks. In 2015, she moved to the White House to serve as an embed covering the Trump campaign. She also wrote the book Electable: Why America Hasn’t Put A Woman In the White House…Yet detailing her experiences on the 2020 campaign trail.
Lemire, who hosted Way Too Early for just over three years, has frequently made appearances on Morning Joe. He will now serve as a permanent co-anchor, similar to Willie Geist, who also helms the morning news program alongside Scarborough and Brzezinski.

The shake-up comes less than a week since Scarborough delivered a scathing rant on air aimed at Atlantic writer David Frum and other critics of the Morning Joe hosts. Frum was a guest on the show on Wednesday (December 4) when he made a joke about Donald Trump’s defense secretary nominee Pete Hegseth.
After Brzezinski later addressed viewers and referred to the joke as “flippant,” Frum penned an article for the Atlantic where he claimed the Morning Joe hosts apologized on his behalf due to “fear” and trying to “appease” the incoming Trump administration.
Scarborough took issue with Frum’s article and fired back in a 20-minute rant on Thursday’s (December 5) episode, saying his reaction “wasn’t the sound of fear, that was the sound of civility,” adding, “I’m not fearful. If you talk to anybody who served with me in congress, they will tell you, not fearful of leadership. Now? Not fearful.”
He also blasted those who had a problem with him and Brzezinski meeting with Trump following his presidential election victory. “We went down to talk to the President-elect and people wrote articles that were just false,” he stated. “But you know what we did? We did the corporate thing. Corporate said, ‘Don’t say anything. Just keep your head down.’ What did the royals say? Never explain, never complain. We did that.”

No - we loved Mika and Joe all these years let’s aim our anger at the true adversary . It’s not Joe and Mika. We are traumatized by the loss and it doesn’t really help to go after those who were with us every day. We are tired of News not our Joe and Mika. Give it a break.

Really! You're traumatized by the loss. You should get over yourself and you're trauma. In four years you'll have an opportunity to take back whatever you think was lost. I was better off before Biden and belived Harris was going to win. Never in a million years would I have thought to i would be traumatized. The American people made a choice and in 4 years they'll make another choice. So go to your counselor, your shrink, or just buy a binkie to get over your trauma.

Excuse me? Give it a break? We're broken enough. Joe and Mika betrayed us. They weren't with us every day...they led us down a road they weren't really on, and then left us to freeze and walk several miles back to our cars in the dark. That's how it feels to me. They're just like Trump. Stop demeaning others' hurt.

I'm not traumatized just extremely disappointed in the American people. If you were to put everything else aside 1/6 alone should have disqualified Trump from public office in the eyes of the people. But we have set the bar so low at this point.

I agree with you, Jules Smith. I think Joe and Mika did the noble thing, by facing off with the adversary, on his own turf. That's not kissing-the-ring. Instead, that's taking one for the MSNBC team. You have to remember, Joe Scarborough is a former US Congressman who knows the systems of politics, as well as an ordained minister of the gospel, who is quite skilled in facing off with opposing forces. So, it would do us, all of US, well to rally with Joe and Mika, instead of bashing them for going beyond the call of duty to present to us Fair and Balanced, detailed news. "You prepared a table before me, in the presence.of my enemies"...Psalm 23:5(a)!!!

Joe and Mika can call it whatever they want. The reality is, if you think someone is a fascist, as they said he is, and is a danger to our democracy, as they said he is, and is unhinged and crazy, as they said he is - then how do you justify normalizing him by going to see him and discussing the visit as if it was with any normal politician. "Take the measure of the man"? You've been telling us for 8 years who the man is! They both have a right to their beliefs and responses. They do not have a right to not have those beliefs and responses ridiculed. Get over yourselves!

I hope Joe & Mika move on.
They have become obnoxious.
Trump goes after Mika & accuses Joe of being involved in death of his assistant & after showing such anger they just “kiss the ring” like Ted Cruz did after Trump insulted his wife!
Trump has no loyalty to anyone & now Mika & Joe don’t either.
It was a great show but I hope Jonathon & Willie replace them PERMANENTLY!

Yall don’t understand. MSNBC. CNN et al are sinking. These networks are trying to attract a wider audience because… there simply aren’t enough lemmings watching the acidic ramblings of liberal shills. The View- I imagine- isn’t too far behind. They’re begging a conservative to join their ranks.

Anything to get Joe off the show. He's a self-important, blabbering frat boy. I've lost so much respect for Mika. How she can preach "women, know your value" and then let Joe talk over her....she's a simp...
129 10
-
G
How about "Know your value" when Mika was romantically involved with Joe, her boss. Mika is useless and if it weren't for her father and his life's accomplishments, Mika would be irrelevant. Frankly, Joe and Mika make upwards of $8 million a year to report news....they are not journalists they are just talking heads. Going to Florida to kiss the ring was disgusting. I'm done with them both.

Their trip to bend the knee and kiss the ring was a terrible mistake. For years they showed disdain for this evil man, specifically Mika, and when he wins, out of fear...yes fear...they tuck tail and creep down to FL to appease the man that cares NOTHING for them or anyone. It was less to do with civility but rather "fear." I applaud those who stay the course. They may lose some viewers but they kept their integrity. Joe touts his so-called Baptist and Bible upbringing...sir, what does it profit a man to gain this whole world but lose his soul. The Bible does teach us to love and forgive everyone, including those who despite fully use us, but Psalms 1 tells not to walk, stand, or sit with the ungodly, sinners, nor the scornful. You may need to refresh your memory.

We forget that Joe is a politician first. He's not anywhere near a true (Dan Rather, Ed Bradley, or Richard Engel) journalist that embeds in the battlefields of Vietnam or the Middle East. While Congress shall make no law prohibiting the press, clearly Joe and Mika thought otherwise.

-
P
so where is the shake up for morning Joe? I don’t see anything different except adding another cohost. How is that a shake up? Joe Scarborough has lost his fastball and this show has lost its sizzle.
That may be more due to the election results, but the fuel that drove the ratings was the progressive agenda, which is now in a ditch. Therefore, the content is lacking and Joe and Mika are left, kissing the ring of emperor Trump.

The meltdown proves they know they were wrong. They simply betrayed their audience and supporters. Until Lemire or someone else completely takes over that time slot, never watching again.

5
-
O
As much as I used to believe this show was interested in exposing some of the pitfalls and hypocrisy inherent in our current two political system, I have lost faith in this show since the Trump meeting. The election results were so disparaging for many of us that Joe and Mikas meeting with Trump simply was too soon and really added salt to a festering wound. Joe talks of his meeting and his desire to bring civility back in the picture. Really, it's as if he doesn't have a clue who Donald Trump is and the lack of civility he has thrived on for his entire adult life. To say their credibility has taken an enormous hit is an understatement. You do not meet with a wannabe fascist dictator so soon after an election and expect people to believe you are not fearful. Quite simply, it doesn't pass the smell test and that smell is one of FEAR!!!

Trump will be Inaugurated President for a second time on January 20,2025. He has now run for President three times and has won twice. He has successfully dominated our national politics now for over 10 years. Anyone and everyone of sound mind have been trying to figure out what to do about this mess we are going to be in. Trump is now in a position to have complete power. It is more then likely that he will screw up. When he does, will the majority of the American people finally abandon him? At 78 years old will he end up with a health problem that will no longer make his Presidency tenable? Stay tuned…

The true offense was Joe and Mika’s dismissal of their audiences reaction They just wrote off all of social media in favor of phone calls Obviously social media contained viewer reaction and the phone calls were from friends and colleagues They publicly insulted their audience That was the worst offense And they continued to do it by doubling down Fear of retribution is understandable and forgivable Disrespecting your audience is not

I SIMPLY CANNOT BELIEVE how low they have sunk. Trump trashed Joe’s wife and they ran from the Republican Party to become “INDEPENDENTS”.
They trashed Senator Ted C and others for kissing the ring. How can they show their faces on TV?
Morning Joe was one of my favorite MSNBC Program. Next to Lawrence Odonald, Joe was the best.
I CANNOT watch that show again.

I listened to them every morning for years, as a podcast while walking my dog. I live in California, so watching live was unrealistic. Like many on here, I love the panel discussions, and the variety of viewpoints. I even appreciated listening to Joe, whose worldview is very different from my own, but he came across as an open minded conservative. However, their trip down to Mar a Lago was it for me. It felt like capitulation. I wouldn't have had a problem had Trump gone on their show, or even if they had done a phone interview. I was and still am disappointed by the results of the 2024 election, but I accept the results, and accept that he will be in the White House for four more years. Journalists have to interview him. But running down to Florida not even two weeks after the election was it for me. I'm listening to Stephanie Miller, Molly Jong-Fast, and the many podcast from Crooked media instead.

Look I’ve watched the show since the Obama administration never missed a morning if you call someone a fascist there is no need to sit with him .I doubt that you will see Nichole Wallace or Rachel Maddox ,or Lawrence Odoneil going to kiss the fascist ring, Joe and Mika made a huge mistake to their audience and now are trying to blame David Frum for telling the truth sorry Joe and Mika but I’m gone

O
Joe and his wife are LIARS. They went to Trump out of fear, PERIOD.
Real journalists would have at least invited Trump on their show and question him in front of their viewers.
They went to kiss the ring. Afraid of investigations, audits etc. Joe is liar with his BS about not being afraid. They are PETRIFIED, and with good reason.

Along with Johnathan, who is the most boring and in my opinion the least qualified. Just terrible hosting. Joe and Mica should have been gone the minute they went against their constant berratting of Trump, which I agreed with but showed their hypocrisy going down to Miami to kiss his ring. They need to go,my opinion.

I could have bought all their excuses as to why they went to see him in Florida and possibly forgiven it until I saw the picture of Joe next to Trump posing with thumbs up. Why would you ever give a thumbs up with a man who accused you of murder?

I missed that. That is nauseating

I watched Morning Joe for years, but stopped when Joe lost his balanced reporting around 2015. He swung way left and stopped reporting a balanced view, so I left. To me, the appeal of the show had been that liberals and conservatives could watch and feel that it was fair to both. The discussions were fair and well represented. When that ended, I left. Although I am deplorable, there are reasons for being such, but Joe didn't want to know why anymore.

Well the problem is joe and mika, and in particular joe, mika will follow her husband, but joe made some business decision and everyone else on the station is paying for it. Willie and Johnathan great host, joe and mika have lost the trust, joe I don't expect any change in viewership, I know nothing changes for me, I will nor watch until their gone and then maybe
2
-
R
I will never watch them ever again. These changes are minor and do nothing. Joe and Mika are the problem . They need to go they poison the whole network
2

Scarborough's daily droning is stale and redundant. It's time for MSNBC to put him out to pasture, like the did with Mr. Motor mouth, Chris Matthews.

I don't watch Morning Joe anymore after the went to kiss the ring.

I started cutting loose when they began criticizing Joe Biden right around the election. Done, done, done.

Mika always looks very quietly unhappy on air.

So disappointed that Mika and Joe played the "bow down to Trump game." What a horrible surprise after listening to them for years.

“Oh you are the greatest president in the history of mankind”……Trying to save their rear ends after calling it out on trump everyday.

B
Bring Stephanie Ruhle to the morning joe. Pick up Acosta and get rid of Mieka and Joe
1
-
O
Absolutely. No trust in their reporting. You don’t get to soft pedal a guests comments AFTER the segment when the guest is gone. What a slap. I too love all the anchors in the afternoon and evening shows. MSNBC needs to replace them both. I really like Jonathan and Willie. They cd carry the show.
1
-
B
They lost my respect. Hope show goes to Willie and Jonathan.
1

O
Yes I agree Morning Joe is one of the best comedy shows, Joe and Mika are insufferable, but amusing just don't take them serious ! The big question how much longer before they shut down their show ?
1

G
Wow. You've been guzzling the Koolaid

Great guests and co-hosts, but Joe and Mika make me mute them both whenever they speak.
1
-
O
I loved this show for years. Now, not so much. I felt hugely betrayed when they took the trip to see Trump. I watch sometimes but not for J and M. I love to hear from their guest. They capitulated so quickly, I was shocked honestly. They seem disingenuous.
1

Mika and Joe made a classical error- they professed a disdain for Trump shared by their audience, then went to "kiss the ring." CNN is now p

Joe and Mika are toast. Good riddance to Trump ring kissers.

True, Kennieth, but you can't come together with don the con. He'll stab you in the back if you don't worship him.

It's not the same, Joe & Mika made that show. They just have a certain star quality, for lack of a better word. I know Joe rants off & on, but that's just Joe & usually Mike settles him down. I don't like it anymore & am just sick.
2 1

they are traitors. That's my opinion and I will stick to it

That show is a joke. All they’ve ever done is lie , you got exactly what you deserve!! Love MAGA

News reporter's job is to report all the news not just what you or I like. It's a good idea, actually, to interview even those with whom you disagree. The old saying keep your friends close, but keep you're enemies closer applies. Joe and Mika have not changed their stance in any way, they just gathered info, which as journalists they should do.
2 1

Just like Kevin McCarthy went to gather news and take the measure of the man after January 6th . I got it.

Good job on replacing Joe and Mika at times with Lamire. I was sick to my stomach what they did. PROUD of MSNBC. Don't need some one else to betray our beloved country. Jan. 6 was enough.
1
-
O
Please get rid of Joe. He is insufferable! I can only stand a few minutes of listening to him. The show is SO much better when anyone other than him is in charge - Willie, Jonathan, anybody!
He just bullies his way through interrupting everyone monopolizing the conversation with whatever is on his mind. He’s boring to listen to.
We deserve better. Please show him the door!
1
-
G
Dump both Joe and Mika. Both are just trumpers and hypocrites. Let Willie run the show.
1
-
P
I like morning joe and watch it faithfully. Sometimes have to mute the rants but love the guests and regulars that appear. I thought visiting trump was a mistake and unexplainable. In the future I hope they show their principles in a more disciplined way. They have made Steve Schmidt apoplectic, can’t do that to your friends!
1
-
G
Haven’t watch this show since I heard they ‘kissed the ring’. Never will again. I watch Meidas Touch on YouTube now. And the podcasts. They explain everything and don’t give any BS.
1
-
O
Stopped watching them completely. Surrender is not an option.
1
-
G
I have stopped watching Morning Joe right after they went to talk to Donald Trump. They were afraid of retribution. MSNBC should let them go. Willie and Jonathan would be a great team and would get back many of the folks that they lost. Do the right thing MSNBC.
1
-
P
Definitely kissed the ring. I KNEW it!
1
-
O
Let’s get real …
In 2015 both Mika and Joe were public Trump supporters (even off - air friends) having Trump call into the show almost every morning. Nicole Wallace would even make occasional appearances espousing her support for Trump stating frequently, “My folks and I are staunch Trump supporters.”
Then came the infamous Trump New Year’s Eve party in 2015 in which Mika and Joe showed up (uninvited) at Mar-a-Lago in which Trump (a) wouldn’t them in to attend and (b) made fun publicly afterwards of Mika’s face bleeding from plastic surgery and how he hadn’t invited them and wouldn’t let them in.
As a result 2016 began with Joe and Mika starting to take pot shots at Trump. The morning phone calls ceased into the show. Trump started to speak publicly about Scarborough’s possible connection to the death of a young woman who worked at his office.
1
-
B
I stopped watching MSNBC a year ago,so I'm not missing anything The Miedas Touch Network is much better!
1
-
O
Dump J&M, and call it Morning Willy. Or MorningJon.
1
-
G
They went down to kiss the ring. As soon as Trump won, they started the turnaround, parroting GOP "talking points". Their "analysis" is about an inch deep, like a seventh-grade book report in depth. Becoming a co-host on their program is the kiss of death to being viewed as a responsible reporter.
1
-
B
I taped Morning Joe every day and looked forward to watching it when I woke up each morning. I enjoyed Joe’s take on issues and tolerated his, too frequent, look backs on his time in Congress. I didn’t watch the show when I found out he wasn’t there. The Mar A Largo visit was a huge betrayal and the fact that they didn’t apologize to the viewers a bigger mistake. I will never watch again.
1
-
P
I think all you elitist thinkers are not nearly so bright and informed as Mika and Joe are...Mika and Joe are making an effort at reaching some kind middle ground. All you want to do is to sow seeds of dissension...Good for you, Joe and Mika!
2 1
-
G
Once he & Mica went to kiss the ringʻ I was done!
1
-
P
Really Joe and Mika do not represent even an average American. You've got two wealthy people on air who caved to corporate pressure. That's why I watch independent news on YouTube. Not only is the incoming former guy rich, so are all his picks. They're the ones deciding how much social security I should get? That's the problem folks. Rich people know nothing about us. Sure Joe and Mika will be just fine. They're wealthy. They can withstand 4 years of fascism. But will the USA?
1
-
G
I am still not watching morning Joe until Joe and Mika is off the show and they get more progressive young journalist that are not scared to fight back on Trump and the Republican Party and tell the truth and stop disrespecting Democratic's then maybe I’ll go back to watching corporate media. They are the reason why Donald Trump won the election.
1
-
O
I think Joe Scars is scared of Trump. He thinks Trump will try and do his dictator thing and go after his enemies and Joe Scars feels it includes him so he went to see Trump in person and kiss his ring. Joe Scars has no credibility anymore!
1

O
There is NOTHING Joe and Mika can do or say to make me watch them again, after being a loyal viewer for many years
1
-
R
They first created Trump in 2016. When the wind blew the other way so did they. Now the ill wind reverses yet again and... SO DO THEY. Kinda gross, really. Rant all you want. Joe is a politician who is proudly on the side of the latest power puff team. Not sure if this is bait & switch delusion or self-delusion but I haven'twatched any of it in a month... cause none of it rings true. Love being on a pundit free diet. I glance at a few headlines on less partisan websites and haven't felt this clear in years. Rant away, Joe. It seems very inauthentic whatever you're actually thinking. Rant on! Rant on with hype in your heart and you'll never rant alone. You'll never rant alone.

I quit watching them as I could no longer their behavior.

“Morning Joe” is arguably one of the best shows on cable news, with the exception of Joe and Mika. The panel is great and the guests are superb, but the Scarboroughs are insufferable. I’ve had enough of his pompous rants to last a lifetime.

Every time I try to watch it I wonder why they're so popular. I see his ego and her capitulation to him and I don't like either one.

Yup. I have never been able to watch them. I watch ALL the shows after 1:00 pm. Great guests, good conversations with Nicole around the table. All afternoon and evening hosts are pretty ego-less, smart and informative.

G
I feel the same, I watched them since 2016,,faithfully but when they went to see Trump, and he didn't even invite them, they invited themselves I said I can't watch them anymore,,I loved there guests, and Willie to me Joe was funny at times, but this was my Morning Show, I do not record them anymore either..I'm so Disappointed.

It has been a lie. The lie is now shown for what it has been all along.
Remember... This past Summer, when we heard from Joe, that Biden is the best version of himself. We now know that was a lie... MSNBC'S Morning Joe has been nothing more than an echo chamber for those who are very light on reality...

MSNBC is the laughing stock of Mainstream news. Known for its anti Trump bias, and it's employ of known, convicted liars, (Al Sharpton), and ridiculous anchors (Joy Reid), watching their broadcasts leaves one's IQ lowered significantly.

There is an old saying, 'Keep your friends close, keep your enemies closer.' I don't count Joe Scarborough and Mika out so quickly. I would love to swing down to Mar a Lago and have a little conversation with Donald. You need to understand a narcissist people.

Trotting down to Cheetos fiefdom to "talk" with him feels like capitulation to me. Everything since from the two of them is an attempt at justification. If you're afraid just say so.

It would have been appropriate for them to apologize to Trump for all the lies, hate, and unacceptable names they called him. Politics is full of namecalling but Hitler? Seriously, they don't believe that. If they did, they would not have visited him and why did they stop? It's because they spewed lies and trashed a man for the sole purpose of trying to tear him down. Can't win on Democrat merits or successes so trash Trump with lies.

I stopped watching for about 10 days. The appeal of the show is having everyone around the table in person. Mika and Joe were hosting from a remote location. It they can't come to their own show in person and sit at the table sy should I?

You’ve never been “around the table.” Not even remotely.

I believe if they would have kept their heads up instead of down it may not have looked so apologetic. Like they did something wrong. Let's face it, everyone know if you go to Mara Lago to meet with tRump, you kiss whatever he asks. You have been pulled in by him and will have lots of trouble not doing his bidding. Nothing will tell me they didn't drink the kool aid. It's mandatory. We citizens are not dumb.

I totally agree. I loved the banter and different viewpoints. When Joe and Mika started broadcasting with different backdrops, even though we knew they are sitting next to each other, I find it insulting.

Who cares about their backdrops? I take your point but find it largely irrelevant to the words coming out of their mouths. Superficial.

How long had you been watching? Five days? This is perfectly normal and has been for years.

I find Joe's misogyny and arrogance(the way he talks over Mika and other guests) extremely annoying. Mika shouldn't put up with it. Where is her spine? Joe sure loves his own voice. Maybe he shouldn't bother with his wife or guests. Just the Joe Show.
-
G
I have watched Morning Joe with My Husband from the beginning of the show when it was Joe, Mika, Willie, and Mike Barnacle. Since Johnathan Lamire Willie Giest is not on as much as he used to to be. Joe and Mika take off every Friday my head spins us working people work I wish we could get awaway what Joe and Mika do. Willie Giese is not on as much as he used to to be. And I am so sick of hearing “I am just a simple Country Lawyer” get over yourself!!!
-
G
Turns out Morning Joe is the one who can't handle the truth. He looked out at America and said F-You to us all. Dump this clown. He fed us the cover-up lines for months about Biden's supposed mental acuity. Dishonest rat.
-
P
Theory: Joe and Mika were ordered to go to FL, Kiss the Ring, and kiss ass!! There were weeks when they weren't on their show. When they "returned," their whole demeanor had changed. Mika no longer speaks her mind and Joe has gone back to conservatism.
-
R
I agree 100% Joe & Mika should both be canceled just goes to show how hypocritical they both are. I have also stopped watching them, though I do miss Willie Geist.
-
P
I love Morning Joe. I hate the days when he isn't on. The show is different when Joe isn't on set. It's not as good. I guess he only works 4 days a week now. I always miss his voice!
-
C
I think Joe's a liar. Stories about trump are true& his presidency. Joe was part of the PROBLEM in the 90s with Newt that made things more toxic. Go home work less, don't let your children become friends with other side. He's a serial adulterer who hoped in 2016 trump would offer him a job then turned on him.
-
B
I gave upon Joe and Mika Just after they went to see The Orange Man.. I Have not tuned in since. Long time viewer but that was the last straw. Does not matter who MSNBC will bring in to clean up the mess at Morning Joe. Best clean up would be to Dump Them into TV HISTORY. MSNC must lick There wounds and get on with what the liberal voter wants to grab on to not just Bashing The Orange man 24 ours straight.
-
O
Last time I looked Mika had been given part of the show, on her own so that Joe isn’t always jumping on top of her script.
-
O
Because Joe won’t let her talk.
-
O
If I get up that early I go to the bathroom.
-
O
“Ring” is a metaphor.
-
O
I didn’t think Joe Scarborogh was that great. He’d pick around looking for something to say about every issue. Just blabbing off the top of his and interrupts Mika all the time while he listens to what the men had to say. I eased away from their show a long time ago.
-
G
Joe Scarborough is such a braggadocious person never more than a couple of times does he have to refer and reminisce about his brilliant leadership while in Congress and what he did, what he stands for and how great a party the GOP was back then which is baloney then and now. The only reason the show has been worth watching his The two young guys Jonathan Lemire and Willie Geist and their very excellent guests that are mainstays second to no one in political arena. Wish they would promise Lemire and Geist and young female anchor to host the show and rename it. Joe thinks he is a rock star.
-
R
Four hours is way too long for Morning Joe to be on M-F. Especially when one of the hours is a repeat. They lost me as a viewer after their visit to Mar a lago. Then they berated their guests and viewers who didn't agree with them.
-
G
Trump is the greatest president in modern history and Joe and Mika know it. They went to Mar-a-lago to beg for forgiveness.
-
G
Thou dost protest too much!!
-
C
I got tired of his constant ranting and preaching while Mika sat there looking like a disapproving nun.....I want news and opinions. I don't want to be preached to
-
O
The Scarborough’s have made a fatal decision to visit with Trump. After all their grandstanding about him and his unsuitability as President of the greatest country in the world, they travel to Florida to be in his presence. No excuses will be accepted! They have betrayed us viewers who have been faithful viewers and believers. MSNBC will do what’s necessary to remove them or it will pay a huge price of lost viewership such as mine!
-
O
Never could abide Mika. She adds zilch. Liked Joe unless he was talking about baseball or on a tirade. The Trump visit did us in, we haven't watched since.
-
O
Will never watch the show again until they replaced.
-
R
I hope Joe and Mika get to visit their friend Donald again soon. Maybe they can get a job in the new administration.
-
C
I will never watch Joe and Mika again. Joe was always obnoxious, constantly interrupting people, but the fact that they went to kiss trumps behind sealed the deal for me. If they give the show to Willie, I'll come back.
-
O
Thank you. It’s refreshing to see others feel as I do. Joe was insufferable before and I’ve not watched them since they went to MarALago to kiss the ring. It’s only if enough people stop watching that advertisers will put pressure on the network.
-
C
So disappointed in ‘Joe and Mika’. They fired up their audience for years about Trump and his immorality and felonious behaviors and yet, given the opportunity, he and Mika kissed Trump’s ring. Despicable action on their part.
-
G
Joe & Mika have really betrayed their loyal viewers. I am one of them. Mike also has become increasingly obnoxious with her constant nasty remarks about Starbucks and her abuse of Jonathan Lamere. Donny Dutch, Sam Stein etc. They’ve become so arrogant as well. They’ve lost me.
-
R
Joe never, never shuts up. There have been many informed, intelligent guests who can barely get a word in edgewise. He blithers with his constant reiteration of personal biography, political experience and opinions. Mika tries so hard to be relevant, but misses the mark daily. They have joined my worst hosts of MSNBC list with Katy Tur (the worst) and runner-up worst, Stephanie Ruhle. They all suffer from the me, me, me plague and CNN stomps them into dust.
-
O
MAKE STEPHANIE RUEL the new host of Morning cup of Joe!
-
J
I stopped watching all news cable, YouTube, podcasts, after the announcement that Trump won. I won't even look at a headline that has the word "Trump" from NYT's, or Washington Post, which are my primary sources for world news.
Let's move forward already and focus on the future and fixing critical issues. We are supposed to be a nation of one, not a nation divided.
-
P
Haven’t watched morning Joe for months now. Getting hook on BBC. You should too!
-
C
I always felt Joe was a frustrated preacher man. He'd go off on these eternal monologues like an expert and then claim to be just a country lawyer fallen off the turnip truck. I feel sorry for Mika who couldn't get a word in - otherwise copying down in long hand Joe's most profound words. Maybe getting ready for an autobiography.
-
G
Are they comparing themselves to 'royals'?? Wow, now that's hubris.
-
O
Love these comments so funny !

I'd like to return to MSNBC once Morning Joe is gone.

G
Please get rid of Mika and Joe. Please. Please. Please.
-
G
No, they say what you want to hear.
-

Before Joe and Mike crawled down to Mar-a-Lardo to kiss the Orange Felon's (insert body part here), I was a faithful viewer of MJ. Now I watch Million Dollar Listing LA, This Old House, or Maine Cabin Masters in the AM.
-
G
The so-called Rev is the DEI guest.
-
R
I think Morning Joe should get back to their original format. It was smart tv and I never missed it. It’s still smart when Joe is actually in the studio at the table. Mica should remember the name of the show and quit trying to be the main attraction. I don’t like the addition of Limire. I turn off the last hour.
-
G
I liked MORNING JOE before Joe & Mika got married. Mika now often comes across as a "Stepford Wife." I view her as slowly losing her own identity and has become "Mrs. Joe." I now watch CNN more often.
-
B
There's a world of difference between politicians and media hosts.
-
G
Joe & Mika need fired immediately. I miss my morning news!
-
R
I think they need to get rid of Joe and Mika, they are destroying the entire network and the other hosts.My suggestions, Jason Johnson, Melissa Murray, Katie Phang, Leah Litman. We need progressive’s that will fight against the lies and gaslighting by the republicans.
-
O
Joe talks over everyone. His guests are interesting, but his behavior is so annoying that I can't sit through the show.
-
O
Morning Joe is a great show when he isn't on. They have great guests but Joe constantly interrupts them.
-
R
These people covers the NEWS!… This is their job! If going to interview a sex predator without morals that is incompetent on everything legal but shows narcissistic behavior towards one’s self and a lack of empathy and loyalty towards everyone else EXCEPT the one daughter that he has a strange attraction for…then that’s what the hell they have to do! I wanna know what that psychopath said so I can prepare for the fallout beforehand!
-
B
Mika is back now, but no Joe. They need to have an explanation cuz this is looking even worse than when they visited Trump.
-
C
Love Joe and Mika !! I had no problem with them choosing to meet with the incoming President even though I cannot stand Trump!!
-
O
I'm not watching MSNBC until Joe and Mika are gone gone gone
-
G
I quit Morning Joe because I couldn’t stand the rude blowheart Joe Scarborough. Who the hell would tune in to watch the host talk over guest, interrupt his co- host & generally didn’t report the news! BLECK‼️‼️
-
C
This show is no different than any other far left biased media outlet. They are all garbage
-
O
Fake tough guy - coward. Joe & Mika make about $8m per year, each. They have been leading the cushy life for a long time. They figured they could skirt the dumpster fire that is about to happen. Unfortunately, #FAFO.

Not just posterior smooching
Some serious foreplay.

Morning Joe has been my necessary fix for more years that I can remember.
I haven’t turned on MSNBC even once since their betrayal…and the more they defend that act, the creepier it sounds.
Like so many, they sold their souls.
Will never return to MSNBC until they are gone.
-

Use to never miss the show. Now it is repetitive, Joe and Mika are missing more and more, They have lost really great contributors. Replaying during the 4 hrs is boring. And talk about news, not just political rhetoric

Traitors

how can joe scarborough claim to be religious when he's now on his third wife?

mika is even dumber than joe. good riddance to both of them.

Like them or not - they are off so much more than they are working that it is ridiculous!

B
I miss them dearly!!!!!!!!! I've been watching since it's inception and have been faithfully devoted. Their integrity, honesty, challenging partnership in sharing and reporting current events has always been self evident of professionalism in the media. As a 71yo senior living on a fixed income (SS), I have been researching how I could keep watching the show either for free or at a low cost. I left Comcast because of the outrageous monthly bill expense ($145. and up) just so I could rely on my daily fix of MSNBC. There were only two platforms; Sling and Hulu that offered choices just under $50. I'm not at all enjoying the routine hosts in the morning and weekend shows. Good talented people but they do not offer the same stimulation that Joe & Mika have been illustrating through their dynamic enthusiasm as co-hosts. Living alone I always have that station (MSNBC) playing in two rooms whether I'm watching or not. I'm not into "streaming" my tv shows.
Keep them on! Don't allow E. Musk to dictate and perpetuate the fall of "freedom of speech" and the current political autocracy. I'm with you Joe & Mika please don't give up!
Sincerely,
Barry Fischer, EdD 👍

I LOVE Morning Joe and watch it faithfully every weekday morning. Joe was more than entitled to react the way he did. I have never once heard either Mika or Joe lie. That show is about the truth, which seems to have become unimportant to too many MAGA followers. The brightest minds in every area appear on that show, all highly-respected in their respective roles, i.e., historical scholars, professors, world leaders, Generals and Admirals, sports announcers, government officials, etc. The list goes on and on...always the BEST of the Best. For those of who STILL recognize and crave TRUTH and FACTS, Honor, Respect, and I.Q., nothing begins to compare to everyone and everything associated with Morning Joe.
-
G
Total cowardness!! Should take lesson from Liz Cheney on believe in something not waver. Total cowards!!!!
-
P
I’m a firm believer that good consumers of current events must use multiple sources, especially now. I used to look forward to Morning Joe; good guests, good panelists, etc. When Joe and Mika became a couple, Joe moved left and became a never-Trump disciple. Mika’s position on the political scale became Joe’s views. He lost all sense of loyalty to conservative roots and must have drank from the punch bowls at too many East Coast liberal parties. He has always had thin skin that was coupled with arrogance, but he had some sense of fairness or objectivity. LOST!

MJ provides real time, informed opinion to people who like to keep up with news and politics without worrying about misinformation or alternative facts. Joe is incredibly smart, informed, and educated in history and politics. These comments are so representative of our failed education system, failed media, Faux News heavy, just so glaringly insufferably shining a light on mass stupidity. He’s too intelligent, intellectual, too well read and all around too literate for the American news and culture consumer. Come back, Joe for the millions of us who get more from you than from any other easily accessible source. And Joe and Mika never indulge personal attacks on anyone. Just straight good thinking and conversation with other such individuals.

Betrayed!!! Will not watch Morning Joe ever again!!

I like the new format of Morning Joe! It sound mature and intelligent now with their comments as opposed to middle and high school political comments earlier. You can still get your point across without being crass. It’s too bad the Five on Fox cannot be like that!

MSNBC isn’t worth watching until 4 or later. That’s when we hear from the real reporters, the real former prosecutors. The hosts after 4 pm are willing to ask real questions. Integrity matters to them.. not to Katy Tur or Chris Jansing.

Would watch it once in a while , just to see how far off the norm it had gotten. Any show with Rev ? On it has no credibility. Basically a terrible show - and it is a SHOW and not news or anything close to that

Scarborough acts conservative or liberal with the climate. A few years back he was a Trump supporter. Before that a detractor. And a supporter before that. Now, he's back to being a supporter when guess who is in power. Frankly, I haven't seen a real journalist in broadcast news since Cronkite retired. Broadcast news is corporate messaging, and corporations own the politicians. Democracy? Only if you count shares in the stock market.
-
G
I don't know how Joe and Mika come back from this disaster. Joe's screed really turned me off, I felt like he was talking down to his viewers, in a nasty way, and Mika was no better. First rule of TV: Don't insult the audience.
-
R
OH, SHAT UP JOE. YOU'RE JUST LIKE MOSCOW MITCH, REMEMBER HIM?
-
B
Anyone has a RIGHT IN AMERICA to go anywhere, at anytime to ascertain the FACTS about anyone, INCLUDING THE TOTALLY COGNITIVELY IMPAIRED PRESIDENT ELECT TRUMP. PERIOD. GET OVER IT FOLKS. THIS IS STILL AMERICA. Joe and Mika did just that, IMO. No other explanation is needed. When you look eye to eye with someone you see exactly who they are. Mission accomplished: Trump IS A TOTAL NUT CASE WHO SHOULD BE IMPEACHED AND EVICTED FROM OFFICE ONCE HE SLITHERS INTO THAT ROLE. HE IS A PUPPET OF ELON MUSK. THERE IS ONLY ONE PRESIDENT AT A TIME IN THE US.

joe and mika have lost credibility period.

G
omg. if given the chance to have lunch with any dictator or facist I would scream. why are people running on fear? Meeting with Trump and any other mad person is actually a good thing. Imagine the knowledge you would gain. I’m so angry with everyone who turned against Morning Joe!
-
O
Used to watch, but the Joe and Mika thing became TOO MUCH. The trip to Mar-A-Loco was the final straw. I’m sticking with the evening line-up, but if I want morning TV it will be CNN or Sports Center.

Mourning Joe Kissed OLD Cheeto Face and We The People called him out on It and Myself Included No Longer watch Mourning Joe because of his Kissing Up to a Dictator and He Don't like It. Well We Don't Like Kiss Asses or a Trader so there Now we're even Get Over Yourself Kisser Joe. 💋
-
R
I watched Morning Joe every day until the trip to visit Trump at Mar a Lago. Mika and Joe have lost credibility. Trump must have enjoyed every moment of Joe and Mika kissing the ring. So sad, I’ll stick with Rachel, Ari and Joy, wish Michael Steele had a weekday show. I’ll catch Willie on Sunday And CBS Sunday Morning.
-
G
Joe and Mika are fakes! They pretend to be tough but they are two self absorbed hypocrites . When it sounded good they hated trump and as soon as he won they go down and kiss the ring! I have watched the show for years . Joe and Mika’s egos have gotten the best of them. Joe can’t help himself to interrupt their interesting guests to act like he is the smartest person in the room, just like trump does. When Joe and Mika aren’t on the show it is great. Let Wille and Johnathon host the show and your ratings will come back. They let the guests talk!
-
C
Common! These two phonies Mika and Joe need to go. MSNBC please get back to respecting your audience!
Who would believe these two? They are phonies and fakes who only care about the money they are making.
And, they only appear to want to be included in trump's inaugural parties and to go to his place to swim in the pool.
-
K
Something more is happening at morning Joe. Watch Mika she is on rattle mode. Her confidence has been shaken. I wonder after the Scarborough meltdown and trump visit if the riot act wasn’t read to both of them. Something happened my spider senses are fir
-
C
I used to set up my alarm clock to wake me up at 5 a.m. central time to watch 'Morning Joe' and also have it automatically recorded. That was until they went and bent their knees and kissed the ring at Mara Lago. They then tried to justify their cowardness by saying that they just went there to "talk" to the coming "Dear Leader." Yeah, right! I lost all respect for the couple since then. As much as I respected and loved watching them on the show before then, and even though I always loved most of their guests for their expertise and candid opinions, I haven't been able to continuously watch the show since their sell out. It has been extremely hard to see and/or believe in anything these two Journalists that I used to have great respect for say now. They are hypocrites.
-
C
I think people need to redirect their anger someplace else. I think Joe and Mika do a great job, it can’t be easy to try and appease everyone. The show covers great context and yes they have options, who doesn’t, but hey call it like it is. Cud ose Joe and Mika, please keep doing what you do…
-
C
Jonathan will be a terrific permanent host. Morning Joe has a great panel and excellent guests, but the Scarboroughs are insufferable and need to go - ASAP.
-
R
Wow. I find it refreshing that so many share my views. Joe is insufferable. He overtalks everybody and disrespects his wife. I agree that they got Trump elected in 2016 by allowing him to lay on his bed and call in for a campaign interview, and it was no better this cycle. I watch because of the quality of guesses they bring on.

Ditto!

I did not appreciate being yelled at and mocked by Joe Scarborough after his and Mika’s ill advised visit to Mar a Lago. That angry rant was very revealing about Joe’s temperament and his lack of respect for his audience. Mika’s blind obedience to Joe and his defensive attitude was disappointing. I have not watched the show ever since and won’t until those two entitled and arrogant bobble heads aren’t there anymore.
-
R
Exactly!

ooooooo, will u leave the country?

Get over it...

Joe and Mika must go! I won’t watch until they leave. I like Willy and Jonathan!

Great that Jonathan is joining the team as a permanent member but, as long as Joe is there, I will continue not to watch: he’s insufferable.
How about if they ditch Joe and Mika and call the show “Morning Willy!”

Get rid of Joe and Mika, then I will watch MSNBC. Let them go work for Trump or Fox news.
-
G
After correctly comparing Trump to Hitler, he goes down to kiss the ring. We used to watch Morning Joe EVERY morning. We immediately stopped doing so when he and Mika humiliated themselves and will never watch again as long as those two are on! Give that slot to Keith Oberman. He knows what’s up!!!!
-

They should of told their viewers their plans ahead of time and maybe they could have saved a huge loss of viewership that feels angry and betrayed.

Yaaaawn, second YAAAAWN always bigger - there now- ahhh soooo, MSNBC early a.m.. drama team being prepped for byeeee bye. We had E N U F of that gab feast SHOW little of substance. Seeking substantive verifiable global news not a constant rehash op ed by M & J re US political trash day after day. Quit them AGAIN this time permanently. No interest in replacement talking heads tryouts while MSNBC/NBC attempts to placate remaining viewers.
-
G
Anyone watching this show or should I say trash, full of lies and bs needs their heads examined. What a bunch of losers the Democratic party is and this is coming from a lifelong Democrat. Get ready for 8 yrs of Vance as president after Trump you losers. And you will keep losing with your lousy anti-American policies. Go back to being a party of the people, American citizens, not putting illegals above us.
-

I think that if you don't like the show or Joe or Mika, you should just not watch it. All I ever read are complaints, so go back to bed or change your channel.

I stopped watching that crap!

that show will be off soon anyway bootlickers and all

Good Lord, Joe and Mika screwed everyone, beginning with his spouse. Now all of the rest of us. Grifters and climbers.

I used to be an every morning watcher- haven’t watched since the election and I am certainly not watching Joe and Mika anymore, period-end of discussion.Adding other personalities along with them is just …. Oh… putting lipstick on a pig

The trip was a mistake...the end.
-
B
As Joe was loudly melting down and Mika was nonstop defending, I was thinking "The lady doth protest too much, methinks." I haven't watched the show since.
-
P
Oh, and I haven’t watched since they announced they visited Trump. @msnbc
-
P
What has always annoyed me is when Joe proclaims when he was in Congress they balanced the budget four years in a row. But not once, not once, did he say who the president was! It was Clinton. I was turned off then realizing he couldn’t give a Democrat credit, but not failing to take it for himself, and think he’s nothing but a Republican pretending he’s independent. Nope!
-
C
I still love Joe and Mika. Stop the Joe and Mika bashing. Now, please get back to bashing tRump.
-
O
Most of the people in this conversation need to look up the word journalist. It’s painfully obvious they don’t know what the job entails. Talking to someone you don’t like is part of the job. It doesn’t matter who it is. Y’all need to grow up and stop this stupid behavior. You should all be embarrassed.
-
G
Why won't MSNBC have real conservatives on to have their arguments? It's boring when everyone is a liberal .
-
O
Mika and Joe described everyone who ran down to Maro Largo as Supplicants, kissing the ring on bended knees......and then they went.
They always knew that Trump was a liar. Why did they go? To hear the truth? I am done.
-
O
Joe and Mika labeled Trump Hitler. They claimed Trump was a danger to democracy and worse. It comes as no surprise that the left thinks Joe and Mika are hypocrites.
-
R
Trump won...get over it losers
-
G
Neither one of them is a journalist. He's a former congressman with an oversized ego and she is a former (and current) news reader. Keep the award winning experts in various areas and the real journalists/writers and dump the Scarboroughs.
-
B
They lost me after the election they are such hypocrites, going to see Trump what was that about. Now they are upset because the viewers were not happy with the visit, they need to be replaced.

I'm done with self important Joe and smarmy Mika. They can go bend the knee if they wish

For one thing Joe interrupts constantly! No one can complete a sentence without him interrupting.

The show was unwatchable before the election. I recorded it so that I could fast forward thru Joe talking to hear what the guests had to say. "Know Your Value" Mika should take her own advice. She embarrassed herself sitting next to that clown every day. I might come back to a show hosted by Geist & Lemire if they were on the same set as their guests, but not if they normalized the incoming administration. NEWSFLASH - Barnicle & Sharpton will keep the 25-54 demographic from watching. Get some young blood in there.
-
P
Joe and Mika have always been the largest sellouts on cable TV. During the Me Too movemen, Mika was disgusted with Hillary Clinton for her insensitive comments about women that she was done with her! Mika then writes a book and powering women, and goes on tour with Hillary Clinton. It was totally disgusting. Watching Joe lecture us on how Joe Biden was the best Joe Biden ever and that F us if we thought differently watching all that I’m surprised that anyone can think they were news.
-
G
Liberal crazy on liberal crazy where's my popcorn
-
O
I am done with this show after years of watching it. Joe and Mika, if you are scared so easily you are working in a wrong business. You don't deserve to work for any TV or radio station.

His 20 minute rant is exactly why viewers have left. He has nerve lecturing anyone after he and Mika bent a knee. I’ll never watch that traitor again.

R
viewers to leave. 🤷

G
I stopped watching awhile ago. Joe and Mika are both full of hatred. Bags of hot air
-
O
(Continued)
Trump continued to pick at Joe and Mika and started (after Trump’s inference that Scarborough was connected to the death of the woman) to hint at Joe and Mika being involved in an affair with each other. Within 24 hours, Scarborough and Brzezinski got married at 5:30 p.m. in a panic
In essence, everything witnessed for the past 4 years between Trump, Joe and Mika in the public eye wasn’t political but personal due to the humiliation of being turned away on New Year’s Eve 2015 at Mar-Lago by Trump then having Trump go public on the turn-away and his ridicule of Mika’s face bleeding from plastic surgery. When Joe fired back on air publicly in Jan. 2016 Trump came back with inferring a Scarborough connection with the death of a woman who worked for him in his home district. Trump then started inferring a Joe and Mika affair which led them to marry the next day. Quite a saga.

I was hoping to hear the show was cancellled. It's just a left left wing propaganda tool that's wrong about everything. Russia collusion and pee pee tape, this is the best version of Joe Biden ever and then two weeks later. Sleepy Joe needs to step down...lmao
-
C
The show has become exceedingly irrelevant. Morning Joe spent time talking about economics but not about the cost of living. Why should they? We know how much they are paid. During the campaign they were all over the place, but treated inflation as an annoyance. Where was the investigative reporting on how migrant labor is the bedrock of our service , construction and farming economy.
MJ Mika Brezinski is not a good journalist, or host , never was and hasn’t gotten better.
I still wince at the memories of her stilted and ungracious interviews.
If Scarborough has a strength it should be getting members of congress to come on the show and pitch their legislation to help the American people
-
G
These two have done as much as they could for the last 8 years to make Trump look bad (all for naught) they turn around and do one honest journalistic act and they are being made out to be traitors - and that’s the hypocrisy of the liberal mind
-
R
Is Willie Giest still there?
-
G
Time to end the show , just move over to" Joe and friends" on foxnews.
-
C
Joe and Mika, i trusted you both for years. You both have broken that trust by going to maro-lardo simply to kiss the ring. I believe both of you are very nasty human beings. For me it all started a few days after the election when Joe asked a guest what the election of tRump meant for the news media and its reporters. Then and there was the moment i knew something was not right. It was very obvious... Joe was not simply "asking for a friend". He was being very selfish in a way, asking with a very scared and worrisome demeanor. I knew then something was out of character. Its very obvious both Joe and Mika are fearful of tRump sending out the goon squad their way. They completely abandoned their moral character and broke the trust i had in them. Great job you two.

What a moron Joe is- listen to this guy "we act like the royal family". Ratings continue to crater. Out of touch

C
Joe and Mika's air of superiority is getting old. Tired of Joe's rambling questions interjecting himself in every subject. I'm impressed at the guests, reporters and contributors can figure out what the heck he is trying to ask. I watch for the guests.....not those two.
-
P
MSNBC single handedly helped The dumpster fire win. Nonstop coverage of nothingness. Hell, he got more coverage than Harris. Welker should be fired for not fact checking his interview in real time. Orange man doesn't need another channel stumping for him. MSNBC is a disaster.

As soon as I found out that Joe and Mika went to go kiss the ring I immediately unsubscribe their show in a heart beat

Keep "reading the man" Joe...pure 110% cowardice and a joke...Morning Joke is now a fitting theme for the show...Keep kissing the ring...you have lost me and my wife as viewers...Pathetic and sad...

Be it ‘Right’ or ‘Left’, I find media (print, TV. Radio, etc.) corrupted by billionaires and sycophants. Democracy, we hardly knew ya.

Joe Scarborough can kiss TRump's ring and my buTT at the same time because I'm not tuning in to Morning Joe ever again. Nope.

I haven't watched Morning Joe since the Mar-a-lago visit. Mika and Joe have proven to be as spineless as all the GOP politicians who dissed Trump then got down on their knees to kiss the ring.

This is why I only read/watch independent media now.

I have watched Morning Joe for years and will continue to do so. Those who are so butt hurt over Joe and Mika meeting with Trump. Get over it. It's what journalists do! Duh!
-
C
I'm a dedicated MSNBC Viewer. I think that Joe/Mika should have gone and interviewed Trump. I believe Joe has always called Trump out for his lies and crazy behavior. Joe reports new and getting it from the source is commendable. I believe it's okay to disagree as long as the news is factual. Let's focus on the real issue, Trumps unqualified nominees.

The show would be better without Scarcarborough anyway!! Way too many rants and he a tremendously hard time letting anyone finish a thought without interruption. His wife does her best but the guy is just out of control!
-
C
Joe never stops talking. He talks over Mika daily. He asked long, meandering questions that leave the guests waiting for a chance to answer. The trip to Trump’s dump in Florida days after the election was a blatant kiss to the butt, and a plea for mercy from the orange menace. Will never watch their show again. But truthfully, I haven’t watched cable news since the election. Maybe not again for the next four years.
-
C
I stopped watching a while ago because Joe was never there and Mika was always on her pedastool clutching her pearls, but I will NEVER go back now, not after the groveling to a wanna be dictator. NEVER!!!

I stopped watching morning Joe years ago because of Scarborough’s unrelenting sarcasm. I think it’s important to note here that Mika‘s father never ever liked Joe.

Morning Joe are sold out!

I’ve been a watcher of msnbc throughout the entire Day, I’ve always like the evening shows a lot where they’re REALLY telling it like it IS. I think we could use some of the fire🔥 in the morning, and I Doubt if any of them would be kissing anyone’s ring
-
P
I am very disappointed in these two. I stopped watching the sycophants. There is no excuse. Did MSNBC force them to do this, all in the name of civility? Joe has a lot to learn about humility, manners, and mansplaining. Meanwhile, let's save our country from these maga monsters.

Joe is like Ed Sullivan. Nobody liked him, but they liked the guests. Willie and Jonathan would do just fine. Mika does nothing.

My hope is Trump does evrrything he promised and burns the government to the ground. Then the morons that voted for him will suffer just as I will at the hands of an obviously mentally ill tyrant. Joe, Mika, and Trump are just symptoms of the moral rot in America.

All of the changes referenced in this piece were announced several weeks ago, long before the Joe rant. But I do not like his rants at all

Yeah the guy speaks the truth he knows a pos when he sees one Hes like people that are not lying to there selfs cause most of us had good parents who told you never trust a lyer or a theif cause you will always be sorry you did in the end and thus is no different.Mike Pence was honest with the American people and still out greed people put these 2 pos in the white house unreal people think this administration is going to do anything good for the middle class fools
-
O
I use to watch MSNBC but I am done watching biased corporate media. I can’t wrap my head around the fact both of them headed to Florida to “interview” the disgusting traitor. If they categorize their visit as being an interview, then why haven’t they broadcast it. Seems to me it was a more let’s go and kiss the ring.
-
C
I think everyone should stop all the grumbling. We watch Morning Joe to be informed and we enjoy hearing Joe and Mika’s thoughts, they give us honest information with their own personalities and we like them a lot. Why fault them for doing their job, America voted for him.

I too was done with the program after they the two of them went to grovel at the feet of the MAGA criminal and King. I will never watch their show again.

I'm up for way to early I like Jonathan smart traditional reporting on facts not opinions minus sports . As for Joe and Mika it's called Morning Joe not morning William or Bob. I don't always agree with views they ar not the only ones around the table. Rant away it's still more truthful and easy to fact check. Unlike fox or X

I loved morning Joe but I am not watching the show again after what he and Mika did. They kiss the bum ring. I am not watching no more shows on msnbc. Except Joy Reid and the 8am weekend show. Joe also threw professor Eddie Glaude and reverend Al Sharpton under the bus on what he did.

This show needs.to he cancelled. Very obnoxious to continously insult the colleges of the ACC, Big 12 and others with his 15.minute lambast to impress Finebaun and the other NFL analyst. Maybe some.truth to their.POV but geez does he have ti be so rude ? All a bunch of critiques who do nothing . Not.men in the ring. You want to weigh the CFP rankings by strength of schedule, how about add in a.GPA factor or SAT factor. .Take them off off the air.

What a nonsensical article. Almost as bad as the stupid comments. Morning Joe is a great program that provides outstanding guests and gives me a good sense of what's happening in the world. Haters love to hate—even so-called progressives who have piled on after their trip to Mar-a-Logo. Criticize them only if their rhetoric begins to praise Trump. Won't happen.

These changes have nothing to do with the ill advised trip Scarborough made to mar a Lago to "interview" Trump. Interviewing could have taken place remotely, by phone or video, but Scarborough chose to kiss the Trump ring in person in Florida. I have not watched Morning Joe since and will not ever watch again. Scarborough is a not a journalist any longer.

I stopped watching Morning Joe also, I still wonder why they had to visit the head of MAGA MORONS, after all the negative banter Joe & Mika had said about Donald Delusional. It is hypocritical and a bit disingenuous to be kissing president elect’s smelly bum!

He's already been president and you're still here, so what will be so bad that you won't survive ? Thats hilarous. Besides Joe is the demented one
I bet you paid less for gas and food, 4 yrs ago.. we weren't involved in wars, and Trump got things accomplished that Joe could have never have dreamed of, besides his ice cream.
RELAX...Trump will get America back on track, after Biden wasted hundreds of billions in taxpayer dollars. Law and order will be brought back, and hopefully the Trump deranged people will come around, and be prosperous with our new leadership. Let's Make America Great Again

Stunningly ignorant comment. 4 years ago this Country (and the world) was shut down. That's why gas prices were down. Too much supply. You did know that fewer Americans were working when Trump left office then when he entered office. Oh, and by the way, the unemployment rate was double when he left too. You did know this, right?

So you prefer the rants of Shawn Hannity, Tucker Carlson, Steven Miller, etc. who report lies and conspiracies rather than truth and good journalism facts not fiction just to backup the orange dictator who will bring this country down to a race to the bottom in our world standing.
Far right crazy people are now in charge and they will take your social security and Medicare away, NOT Make it better!
MAGA will hurt every American but the wealthy who want to pay 0 zero taxes!
Cosy up to all the dictators and let them tell him what to do?

After years of leading the of "Trump's a NAZI, the end of democracy, etc." it is a great relief to know it was all simply not true, as Joe and Mika well knew all along. I just hope the traitorous maniacs in the Biden administration that these 2 morons along with all the other MSM demons have provided cover to for so long do not burn down the country with WW3 before MAGA 2.0 can usher us back to safety and prosperity. Look forward to the total collapse of MSNBC and hopefully Elon can scoop it up at a bargain.

Much to do about nothing!
Continue to enjoy Joe and Mika!
So do my friends!
Personally, would not have gone to FL, but they have known him. My take is that if it opens up dialog, then it works!
Mika stated that her Dad always believed dialog with friends and foes!

No - we loved Mika and Joe all these years let’s aim our anger at the true adversary . It’s not Joe and Mika. We are traumatized by the loss and it doesn’t really help to go after those who were with us every day. We are tired of News not our Joe and Mika. Give it a break.

There is nothing wrong with the; Morning Joe Show. I say this because what I like about this show is that he goes across the aisles to talk to people of different ideologies. And after reading these emails from people that say that they will never watch his show again is despicable. We have to learn how to work with people and when we don't even agree with them. I say this because I work for a corporation called General Mills Corporation and every day of 22 years there was people I did not like but I had to work with them. These people are writing these emails are angry they're liberals or as we would say latte liberals. And they have been demise of the black community white folks that think or say that I have black friends but when you need them to stand up for you they never stand up for you. So who cares if they never watch the show again good riddance I'm with Morning Joe

By doing what would be done under normal circumstances, Joe and Mika are being castigated by quite a few "know it alls". I suspected there was more to the story. As usual, some on the left are too quick to "eat their own" (see Senator Franken) before all of the facts are in.

For one thing, I think Joe talks too much. He doesn’t let make a Harley say anything. He’s wishy-washy. One day he’s bashing the Republicans complaining about Trump. Then after the election, he’s kissing the ring and complaining about the Democrats. You can’t play it both ways. But much of the media tries to do that. I keep saying what’s wrong with the Democratic Party. Well, let me sum it up for you. They think and talk too much. That’s all they do think and talk. But they don’t do anything. There’s no action in them. President Biden didn’t do anything for the office.. If his attorney general had went to work in the beginning of Biden’s term, Donald Trump would be in prison right now. This country has a problem with people just wanting to be president and that’s all. They don’t wanna do anything. They just wanna be president.

It's their job to report the news so they went and met with Trump that doesn't make them traitors it doesn't make them wrong that makes them doing their job appropriately anybody who has a problem with this still has TDS and they need to get over it because he's here for the next 4 years.

The network is hopelessly out of touch. A handfull of wealthy uber-libs who live and play with each other in Manhattan in their own little echo chamber, telling the world how it is. I laughed out loud the day Joe was telling us how fortunate we were to be alive to witness the "Amazing presidency of Joe Biden".....a few months before he was finally flushing him when he finally had to.

Feel however you want, watch it until it's canceled. Do you think it was an accident that everyone else felt slapped in the face? I don't mind differing points of view & it was okay that they brought on republicans to tell their side. But J & M did a 180 and everyone else can see it. Don't piss on our shoes & tell us it's raining.
