'If the word "spineless" had a picture next to it in a dictionary, no doubt, we'd see Joe Scarborough and his smug mug. Or, we might see Mika Brzezinski...
Either way, MSNBC's Morning Joke lived up to its name with the dynamic duo's most recent list to Mar A Lago. Still Scarborough "does not understand" why loyal viewers and Democrats might have been confused by his sudden change of heart. He saw this for the first time...
For the first time what a massive disconnect there was between social media and the real world."-Joe Scarborough
That "massive disconnect", Joe? Largely brought on by you and the Missus. But, moving right along, colleagues and those familiar with Mr. Scarborough's sleazy dealings had a few things to say about the Morning Joe anchor:
He is the hollow man. There is nothing inside him except for a need for success and social status.
There is nothing he won't do, say or bend. If he was a cartoon character - which he strongly resembles - he would be called Breaky Bendy."-Anonyomous Morning Joe Guest
He gives opportunism a bad name, they say. Personally, I think they are being very kind and generous here. Did anyone else feel like taking a shower after hearing Joe and Mika paid a visit to Mar a Lago? Yuck.
Truth.
Will Scarborough be returning to his "Republican" roots?
Twenty-five years ago, he spoke at the Princeton Club and came there as an elected office holder. The event was sponsored by Pfizer with free drinks and free hors d'oeuvres. I was shocked when he sold out at MSNBC. My guess is that there was no climbing the hierarchy as a Republican."- Doug Dechert
Opportunist, as we have said, would be putting things mildly here. Likely, Scarborough has realized how much of the proverbial crap he has stepped in and is now trying to backpedal and kiss DJT's ring. As if. He is not good at his job and certainly not good at saving face-or whatever he and Mika are trying to do here. He may say it's "in the name of journalism" but, really?
It's not.
I think two words are worth going back to here: THEY LIED. For eight whole years. Now, suddenly, miraculously, they want to "do things right?"
How many lies did Donald Trump tell, Joe? Now, Joe and Mika want to "reopen the lines of communication" as a "quest for better journalism" or something.
Joe Scarborough is the epitome of what is wrong with the talking heads of television. Joe and his cronies, for eight years, lied to people who sat in their homes. Joe Scarborough, and his wife, Mika Brzezinski, were content to collect a paycheck by lying, instilling fear and perpetuating division and hatred. They drove the political and ideological divide. And now, these two want the American people to believe they want to play nice?
First off, anyone who buys this is further along the path to being braindead than some of us once thought. This is the guy who called people who did not get at least four COVID booster vaccines "morons" and "freaks". Now, Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski want to save face, save their jobs and dial back the crazy. May be a good move in considering the hosts of The View are still pretty off their rockers.
The problem is, the crazy has already been unleashed. And, it went unchecked for years. Whatever olive branch the hosts of Morning Joe offer Donald Trump. Whatever "responsibility" they want to claim in "providing quality journalism", we, the everyday "freaks and morons", who did not line up to get our fourth COVID vax, will not forget the crazy the likes of Joe Scarborough and his peer group of "elite journalists" made over the years.
