I remember when a guest brought a box of donuts to set. Willie and Joe each took one, but Mika took the box and threw it in the garbage. It wasn't polite. Let the staff eat some of the donuts.

Yes, but I am surprised anyone from Beverly Hills would want to buy a condo in Dubai.

I always thought it was strange that a company in Dubai would hire a real estate agent from L.A. to market properties there.

I will never forget when Joe said Abraham Lincoln never tweeted during the Civil War.

Thanks !. I love the USA & my grandmother was born in Fitchburg, Massachusetts. I support closer relations with the USA but don't want to be annexed into the USA without a vote by the Canadian people.

I still record the show on my DVR, but I only watched a few minutes today. Joe supported AOC and Senator Sanders' campaign against Oligarchs in Arizona and Colorado. I watch CNBC & Canadian news now since Canada has a federal election on April 28. The top issue in Canada now is how to deal with President Trump's tariffs & proposal to make Canada the 51st state. I wonder if this will be covered on Morning Joe. Canadians are very anxious about the USA these days. Travel to the USA is discouraged. People refuse to buy US-made goods at Grocery stores, etc.

Joe's credibility has disappeared since he bragged about President Biden being in the best shape ever in March 2024. Joe claimed that he visited the White House, and Biden beat him running up the stairs to the private residence. After the June 27 debate, Joe called for Biden to step down from the race but flip-flopped for a few weeks while Mika was adamant that Biden could serve for four more years. I find it hard to believe that Mika & Joe were unaware of President Biden's medical condition. They have lied to their viewers & sucking up to Trump by going to Mar A Largo after calling him Hitler etc, which makes them look foolish.

MSNBC is paying Mika and Joe $16M annually for 67,000 viewers in the key demographic. Lemire makes $750K per year. The last I read, Willie was making $4M per year. This is $238 per viewer for Mika and Joe alone. I bet they could get Kasie Hunt back for $3M per year with fewer viewers. “Morning Joe,” meanwhile, has been losing viewers in the 25-54 demographic. Prior to Nov. 5, the show averaged 123,000 viewers in that age group. Since then, that number has shrunk to just 67,000 viewers, per Nielsen.

Morning Joe ratings have been cut in half since the election. https://nypost.com/2025/02/26/media/fox-news-fox-amp-friends-outpaces-struggling-morning-joe-of-msnbc/

Huma is engaged to Alex Soros! https://www.cnn.com/2024/07/11/business/huma-abedin-alex-soros-engagement/index.html Anthony Weiner was her ex-husband. Joe said that when he was in Congress, the other members knew he had the "balls" to make tough decisions about balancing the budget. He bragged that he didn't have to show them his genitals, unlike Anthony Weiner.

Mika advised Huma about dumping Congressman Anthony Weiner who kept posting photos of his genitals to young women. Huma somehow let her husband gain access to Hillary Clinton's emails which prompted an FBI investigation shortly before the 2016 election. It helped Trump win the election in 2016. It amazes me at how stupid some people are whose actions affect the world. If Trump had lost the 2016 election , the world would be in a different place.

Joe made fun of Mika reporting from the South of France when she was clearly in Abu Dhabi. Mika is much happier reporting From the UAE. She wore a black scarf and top in mourning of the potential tariffs on luxury handbags. Mika said she hopes France works out a deal to exempt LVMH & Birkin bags from Trump's tariffs. Mika recommended shopping at the duty-free shop for good deals. Mika said there are women from 46 countries attending the Summit. Maggie & Huma are her new besties. Mika told Joe to clean up the house before she came back to Florida. Chris Matthews denied that he & Barnicle would get their own show on MSNBC to attract new viewers to MSNBC.

Mika is broadcasting from Abu Dhabi today as Chair of the Forbes Summit. Joe was upset that Trump gave a long partisan speech. Trump's speech was over 90 minutes, almost as long as it takes Joe to let some guests speak on his show. Mika fact-checked Trump, saying Inflation was high under Biden at 9 %. It was higher after WW1 at 24%. Mika is learning about Economics. Joe said the US economy was the envy of the world. Steve Rattner looks pale today. Joe is worried about tariffs & the stock market.

Unless Mika & Joe violate the morals clause in their contracts, MSNBC has to pay them until it expires. This could also explain why Joe is reluctant to go on a rant where he says something that could allow the network to fire him for violating the morals clause. MSNBC can renegotiate their salaries at a lower level or replace them with lower-cost hosts. Current ratings do not justify $16M per year in compensation.

Tina Brown was an original Morning Joe panellist. Katty Kay replaced her. Mika & Joe should consider retiring. They hit the jackpot by being friends with Trump before he entered politics. They were on The Apprentice as special guests/coaches to help the show. They were on a golf course together. Joe was receptive to letting Trump come on Morning Joe and mouth off on whatever he wanted to say in the 2016 primaries. They got caught on a hot mic when Trump and Joe told Mika not to ask any tough questions during the Town Hall. After he won the nomination, Mika and Joe started attacking him, etc. It's like the WWF. Mika and Joe have made at least $100M since Trump became a political candidate. Their kids and grandkids will all benefit from their relationship with him. I could see MSNBC letting Joe do a few Scarborough presents interviews with celebrities. Mika could work with Forbes on the Know Your Value summits.
