Macho MSNBC host Joe Scarborough continued to expose his troubling obsession with outward manifestations of masculinity. Macho Joe was back at it Tuesday during Tuesday's Morning Joe, twice referring to the Republican Speaker of the House as "little" Mike Johnson.

On Morning Joe, legal analyst Chuck Rosenberg says that, based on his experience, when a supervisor on a case is involved in a relationship with a subordinate, one or the other should be removed from the case. He said that should apply regardless of whether the relationship between Fani Willis and Nathan Wade began before or after she hired him on her prosecution team.

On Thursday's Morning Joe, MSNBC host Joe Scarborough used the Kansas City parade shooting to break out into a commentary attacking Republicans for supporting "radical gun laws," leading co-host Mika Brzezinski to predict that Democrats would own issues like guns and immigration in this year's elections and to advise the audience not to vote for Republicans.

Morning Joe mocks Speaker Mike Johnson for partially blaming the Republican loss in the NY-3rd special election on an Election Day snowstorm. But the show ignored the fact that Democrats enjoyed a major advantage over Republicans in early voting and mail-in voting, and thus were not as affected for same day voting by the snowstorm.

Claiming it was a "district Republicans should have won," Joe Scarborough blames Donald Trump for the Republican loss in the special election in NY's 3rd congressional district to replace the disgraced George Santos. This, despite Biden having won the district in 2020, voters surely wanting to punish Santos retroactively, and the Republican candidate is still a registered Democrat who…

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough and Michael Steele suggest that people not worry about Biden's age and forgetfulness, but focus instead on how well their 401(k)s are doing.

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough puts on a goober accent to mock MAGA supporters who believe Donald Trump's claim that he told the leader of a large NATO country that if attacked by Russia, he would not defend it if they were delinquent in their payments, and to the contrary would tell "them," i.e. Putin, to do "whatever the hell they want."

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough, who was recently revealed to be a frequent phone buddy with and adviser to Joe Biden, in discussing a new NBC News poll fails to mention its most important finding: that among registered voters, Trump is beating Biden by 5 points, his largest lead yet. 

After Morning Joe plays a clip of President Biden mentioning his son Beau first among the "fallen soldiers" that Donald Trump failed to visit in a military cemetery in France, Jonathan Lemire covers for him, saying that Beau died of cancer "shortly after returning from Iraq."

In the course of discussing pushback from some conservatives complaining about Taylor Swift showing up during NFL broadcasts, and the prospect that Swift, who endorsed Biden in 2020, might do so again in 2024, Joe Scarborough mocks Trump followers who pretend to be "manly." This despite the fact that Scarborough has often boasted of his own supposed toughness.

It was too good to be true -- and sure enough, it wasn't. Joe Scarborough began a segment about illegal immigrants being released the day after they viciously beat two NYC cops by calling the outraged reaction a "bipartisan issue."
