I must admit that I now eagerly tune in to Morning Joe to get my daily bashing

of Drumpf. However, it is excruciating to watch the way that Joe treats Mika. He constantly cuts her off when she is trying to speak and gives her a"shut up" look if she does not yield to his blah, blah. This is what he does in public and I would hate to see how he acts in private. It makes me want to mail her a #ME TOO shirt. She sits there with that "I just love him look on her face. When he did it this morning, I've had enough. Apparently she has not.

I have the sense that she can give as good as she gets. In fact, I think off screen Mika runs the "Mika and Joe" show.

before Trump started calling in, and that's why they gave him all that free positive airtime.

The Trump presidency has certainly been a boon for them ratings-wise.

How often does he say "Trump is a Democrat" without any push back from the so-called Democrat? How often does he have right-wingers like Rich Lowery talk up Trump's supposed accomplishments?

Too often.
