18. When I wake up they're the first cable news show to start the day...

so I find myself watching it. Often the show has worthwhile guests but Scarborough is not my cup of tea (guess I should say my cup of joe).

That show and its hosts are still psychically, in the abstract, trying to make up for its robust promotion of trump four years ago as he would frequently call into the show and both Scarborough and Mika would enthusiastically welcome him to chat and campaign. It was millions of dollars worth of free publicity for trump and helped his campaign tremendously.

Once trump showed the nation what an inept idiot he is and a disaster as a president, they've become as enthusiastically opposed to him as they were once enthusiastically welcoming to him.
