Within minutes of President Donald Trump attacking them on Truth Social, the co-hosts of MS NOW’s “Morning Joe” fired right back with derision, a fact check — and some life advice.
Coming out of a commercial break after an interview with “Monty Python” founder Eric Idle, co-host Jonathan Lemire reported, “Just now, so I follow President Trump on Truth Social so you don't have to, he writes this about us, ‘Joe Scarborough’s show has been cut way back and will soon be dead.’ He puts that in quotes.“
"What does that mean?” Scarborough asked.
“Goes on to say, ‘too predictable and boring,' so maybe he’s tired of Monty Python, I guess,” Lemire smirked.
“I didn’t think it was boring,” Scarborough joked.
“No, I thought it was nice,” Lemire replied. “He goes on to say, ‘really bad ratings’ — all capital letters, ‘just like the rest of MS NOW,’ which he puts as MS DNC and he signs it off as President DJT.”
“You don’t have to watch,“ co-host Mika Brzezinski advised, with Scarborough agreeing and adding, “Exactly. But number one, number one cable show in the morning in Washington, D.C., right where you are, Mr. President. But you don't have to — in fact, I have asked you not to watch. I specifically said: ‘Please Mr. President, don’t watch our show.” It’s not good for you and it's not good for America.”
“Just, like, watch channels where they say s—t that you like,” he suggested.
