Hillary's visit to Morning Joe this morning will go very well. I can tell by two things: Mika will
be the interviewer and she just stated how Trump's racist words along with this supporters are so negative and have a terrible impact on U.S. citizens. Not exactly her words but this was the message. The other thing is that Joe is not there today. I'm sure his absence was pre-planned but he must be furious/upset about not being there. Unfortunately, mouthy Nicole Wallace is there, hope they can muzzle her for the time Hillary is there. I'm looking forward to it.

1. Not exactly. Mika said that Joe will call in to the show
and will be part of Hillarys interview at 8:30 eastern.
Mika very emotional this morning about Trumps racist campaign. I think she feels guilty that she and Joe were instrumental in getting him the nomination. |

2. Oh sorry, I did not hear about Joe calling in. I was making the much needed coffee
at the time. I doubt he will be snarky though. I agree that she is quite emotional this morning. She is projecting such disgust.

3. It does appear that this morning Mika has grown a spine
Right before our very eyes.
MIKA: Donald Trump just doesn't know what his words are doing. He has no idea what his words are doing to this country. Better, this a.m. |

And if Mika wants to continue to pretend he doesn't, she's useless.

11. Her tone was utter disgust with him
Personally, I think today she held the right stance.
Today -just today - I thought she was useful in furthering the narrative of just how unfit he is to lead even a Boy Scout troop, let alone this country. |

18. I didn't see it so I have to take
your word for it. She's been so busy trying to magical balance fairy this entire election, I can't watch her anymore. Meanwhile she and Joe did more to get that clown nominated than anyone else in the media.

19. Oh I completely agree
They were one of the first talking heads with a national platform to treat Trumpy's campaign with an air of legitimacy.
It's funny, but Mika seems like a stronger, more sure of herself voice when Joe's not on the set...like this morning. I tend to watch only when he's got the day off. Less aggravation ~ |

In the past I noticed she's much better when he's not there. Their behavior this season has been horrible.

5. Yes. I think that she and Joe had
developed a personal friendship with Donald.
I'm sure they let Donald know that they are now a romantic pair and he tweeted about that the other day. Could not have made her happy since they haven't yet gone public about it. She prob feels personally betrayed by that. |

Several different news sites reported on it and her "quiet" divorce

12. I'm looking into my crystal ball.
It's coming into focus.. I see... I see... I see multiple "I'm offended by what Mika/Joe said" posts. Followed by quite a few, " can you believe what tweety said" posts.

15. It's amazing to me that Mika and Andrea are outraged by the racist element
in Trump's candidacy (and rightfully so), but utterly blind to the sexism that they facilitate on a daily basis.

So it should be a good interview with her this morning.

an opportunity like this be left to a woman...LOL..

28. She did very well. I also wonder if the ratings at MSNBC have suffered since they have taken the
rightward stance. This would have much to do with the change of heart I would think. I don't know..

27. Mika is obviously distraught right now.
In the interview with Hillary, she was basically BEGGING Clinton to assure her there were no bombshell e-mails or anything else to come out that can derail her run. When Clinton assured her everything was fine, Mika softly said, "I hope so". It would not have surprised me one bit to see Mika break down in tears. We may see it yet before this is over.

29. I think Mika has other issues that are upsetting her, possibly her daughters reaction to the divorce
etc, and the affair with Joe. Politics is the cover story. IMO that is..
