Morning Joe devoted Wednesday's opening segment to President Trump’s latest comments about Ohio Senator John Husted's physique. Trump had once again described studying the senator’s body at a rally, including an explicit reference to his “ass” as “a pile of muscle.” One week ago, we noted the show's innuendo-laden comments on the same subject. Today, Willie Geist edged even closer to the…

Whether or not you believe in “karma is a bish,” or “tempting the fates,” it’s undeniable that Joe Scarborough went on an unseemly riff on Thursday’s Morning Joe, gloating over what he saw as various woes facing Trump and the Republicans at the midterms. The screencap shows him holding up one of the headlines he described as “bad news” for Trump. Joe stopped just short of rubbing his hands in…

Joe Scarborough opened Tuesday's with an innuendo-laden routine—even working in a Village People reference—about President Trump's habit of commenting on the physique of men in public life. On Wednesday, they suggested Vice President Vance's implication that James Talarico had weird sexual interests was "projection."

On Thursday, the broadcast network morning shows continued to push the idea of Republican losses in the midterms, continuing to focus on the Texas Senate race between Republican Ken Paxton and Democrat James Talarico. In addition to the Texas Senate doom, ABC continued to mention “fierce backlash from Democrats” over Trump’s misconstrued rally comments in Nebraska, while NBC feared more…

On Tuesday’s Morning Joe, the premier liberal morning show, led off with a clip from a Trump rally in Nebraska and insisted Trump called for Iran to bomb Los Angeles and San Diego. Ignoring the context of the clip, hosts Joe Scarborough and Willie Geist called for impeachment. Later, Scarborough even insisted that some of the media not covering the out-of-context “take out” clip was evidence…

On Wednesday’s Morning Joe, the premier liberal morning program on MS NOW once again went after ICE, this time in defense of the described “DoorDash driver” shot by ICE in Texas who is now charged with assaulting an ICE officer. Host Joe Scarborough proclaimed “ICE lies” and gave no credence to ICE’s claims.

Joe Scarborough and Bernie Sanders: same struggle! The Morning Joe host continues to sound ever more like the socialist guy ranting, in his inimitable Brooklyn accent, about "millionaires and billionaires." On today's show, Scarborough went off on Trump's claim that, thanks to him, people have gotten richer. Scarborough distinguished between billionaires and "working" Americans. 

After repeated claims on his Morning Joe program that President Donald Trump promised to "only" target "the worst of the worst" illegal aliens, and that he was therefore breaking a promise by including all illegal aliens, MS NOW's Joe Scarborough on Tuesday finally admitted that Trump promised mass deportation, and not just of "the worst."

On Thursday, the second hour of MS NOW’s Morning Joe turned into a prolonged discussion on transgender athletes in women’s sports as co-hosts Joe Scarborough and Willie Geist minimized the issue and said Republicans were "obsessed." Then, Scarborough and Geist attacked Republicans, with Scarborough saying there was a “raging current” and “reservoir of beta maleness underneath this Republican…

On Thursday, the Morning Joe crew remained shocked that former Secretary of State and Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton lost the 2016 election, as co-host Mika Brzezinski and former Biden National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said Clinton has seemed “better than ever” in recent interviews, where she has bashed Trump policies, along with private meetings.

Texas Democrat James Talarico sat down with Fox News this week and walked back some of his most controversial lines on a non-binary God and six genders He even said he would support a national ban on gender surgeries for minors. On "Morning Joe," Talarico's revisionism was treated as a master class. CNN said "We're gonna ask whether the voters can believe what he's saying now."

Morning Joe spent Wednesday selling James Talarico as the man who bats away every dumb question. Nobody asked the one that matters: what does Talarico say when two pastors at his own church say that people in the pews were disappointed that Donald Trump survived two separate assassination attempts? 

On Tuesday’s Morning Joe, the MS NOW program promoted a new book by The Bulwark’s Sarah Longwell that planned for an end to the Trump era, as Longwell clamored for an end of the Trump movement and hoped it would go to the ‘Ash Heap of History.”

Morning Joe on Friday unloaded on President Trump’s planned 250-foot arch near Arlington National Cemetery and the Lincoln Memorial, a project Interior Secretary Doug Burgum said is moving toward excavation within two weeks. The panel called it an “obscenity,” “grotesque,” “imperial,” a “manifestation of ego,” and a plan to “deface the nation’s capital.” No one dissented.
