I didn't see the Paul Ryan segment. Anyone mind to fill me in on how they took his "spend more time with his family" line since that was the same line Joe used when he left Congress? 

Did you know Joe was in Congress? Florida. He was groundbreaking in his need to control the bodies of women. Probably the best A+ rating the NRA ever gave. A true conservative, that one.

ETA: Mika's crush is on Nicolle Wallace's show right now. I wonder if he is banned from Morning Joe or if he refuses to go back because of Joe. I sorta need to know which one it is. Lol

 

Xoqueens, the very first clip I believe is the Ryan discussion:

Not to mention the alleged "addition to the family" . . . barf.

eta:  And listening to the clips from Comey's book I would imagine this will take front and center as it combines the dish from Fire and Fury but written by an adult (I love Michael Wolff but an historian he is not).

Whatever's happening, the show is in a deep rut.   It's rare that they even have timely guests.   Madeline Albright?  

Madeleine was a friend of Dr Z. She has friend of the show status. I am mad that there are no segments on the workplace or business. They used to had a very nice journalist from Fortune or Forbes magazine on regularly. Now it's just cronies. I like Robert Costa. I can FF through the show pretty quickly now. Joe is becoming like Andy Rooney from 60 Minutes. He has a 5 minute rant from his bunker. Rooney used to rant from his office filled with books.

After Joe's prolonged rant about Trump having "Daddy's billions," I think he asked the first question of Leon Panetta, and then was he ever on the show again?  Joe used the word "Daddy" about 20 times.  Trump doesn't watch MJ, Joe.  He watches Fox. 
What did Hannity do?  I guess I missed that.

I found Joe's rant about Trump inheriting hundreds of millions from his dad to be wrong. How come Joe never ranted at Trump when he was a daily guest on Morning Joe? Joe likes to take cheap shots at guests when they can't defend themselves. I doubt Mika's new crush Mr .Avenatti will be on the show ever again.

The pee tape has made a comeback (per Comey exerpt) plus apparently there may be more Trumpettes than we realize.  Those ill-written NDA's are rapidly becoming a problem and now Cohen is starting to take the fifth.  With Mueller apparently moving on without actually interviewing his highness, that leads me to believe he has enough on him and his merry band of grifters and Cohen has seen the writing on the wall.  Everyone wanted this investigation wrapped up quickly and it looks like maybe Mr. Mueller may be obliging.  What a sad day for our democracy that we elected this filth in the first place.

He is one of my favorite guests on this or any of the MSNBC shows. He's knowledgeable but he's also almost . . . dispassionate? I'm not sure that's the right word. He seems to try hard to keep his emotions in check, no matter how wacky the story.

One bit of trivia about him . . . he and Hallie Jackson went to the same high school, at around the same time, I think.

I still want to know how he lost so much weight.

Mika & Joe made the list ! No mention of Joe being able to host from a bunker. The report is optimistic about the show's ratings. Fox News already had a lead on Morning Joe. Ratings for all 3 cable tv morning shows are up 30% + or so.

I think we were watching an  interpretation of foreplay. That clip is from almost exactly one year ago. Didn't she rip her earpiece out at the end and fling it on the desk? IIRC we didn't see her for awhile after that morning, just him. Then they went to Cap d' Antibes for her bday and came home officially engaged.

They're both on set today.

So I'm thinking the producer called Mika late last night and told her, "Don't worry, he's broadcasting from the bunker tomorrow.  See you in the studio!"

Then called Scarborough: "Don't worry, she has the day off tomorrow.  See you in the studio!"

Friday Recap. Mika & Joe on set together. Donny, Katty Jonathan Lemire & Carol Lee.Mika is wearing her dark blue top with the V neck. She wears this top a lot. Joe has a tie from Griffindor. Willie is there too.

First topic is Trump.

Mika & Joe & other panelists played the game of is Trump too stupid to have an interview with Mueller.? Theskit went on for five minutes. They made fun of Trump going to Wharton & not Princeton. They have done this before. Do they need new writers? Iis this still a live news show or doe Mika & Joe get transcripts of old shows & try to replay the "funniest bits"

Joe is talking about Rachel Maddow beating Hannity in the ratings. That's not true but whatever. It's a good talking point.

Joe & Mika are joking around today. Katty's book sales are doing well. Willie bought Katty's book! Didn't he get a free book?

Someone should bring up Joe's book sales! Ha!. They are very low. Mika's book sold much better than Joe.

Comey wrote  a book. Comey's doesn't like Trump.

I liked Joe's rant this morning but I would love to see Joe invite Newt on and have a head to head debate.  I would cheer Joe on.

One thing though, I did find it a bit awkward that Joe's got a table of four other people sitting around him while his doing this and I'm wondering, is that idiot Donny giggling?  Because that's what Donny did at the beginning of the show when Joe asked him a "serious" question for insight into trump.

Is this part of the show?  The crawl this morning says trump will pardon Scooter Libby who was convicted in 2007 of lying to the FBI and obstruction.  Figures.

Morning Joe's ratings went up on Wednesday. They were .14 ( 18-49) & 1, 124,000 total viewers They were at 924K on April 9. It's a big variance.

Mika thanked Anthony Weiner& Bill Clinton for helping electing Donald Trump.

Mika is trying to sell the book as a bombshell. Donny Deutsch disagrees. They haven't discussed Comey mentioning Trump's small hands. Oh, Katty just did.

Did Joe just rant that the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?
Good god, that was a blustery rant.  Economy of words, Joe.  Try it.  Be succinct like Steve Schmidt.  It's better rhetoric and easier to follow.
Did he just say that Ted Kennedy called US Troops "brownshirts?" 

Those rants are absurd.  He's never going to goad Hannity to reply or Trump to act or me to change my mind, let alone agree with him.  He's so all over the place I never know his thesis anyway.

Was that in the middle of his Gingrich rant as I believe Newt may have said things along these lines?  He's really on a roll today, a complete 180 from the past couple of weeks.  It's like his jaw had been wired shut and now he can't stop talking.

I liked Scarborough's blowhardiness this morning.   Everything he said was spot on regarding the cretins at Fox.   It goes back to the question I posed yesterday -- what is it about Trump that causes all these people to debase and dishonor themselves for his benefit? (Not that Hannity and Gingrich had any honor in the first place.)

ETA: I think I just figured out the answer: by flattering and cajoling Trump, who frequently acts upon their twisted opinions, the Fox lunatics get to influence national policy even though no one ever cast a single vote for them. 

Carol Lee looked cute this morning.

Joe hasn’t had a fair debate with any guest in a long time. He likes sycophants . He talks over most guests.

Joe had a chance to influence Trump during the transition. He blew it by attacking Miller. There has to be a better way to get through to Trump. He is acting in a way that is unhealthy. Trump just called Comey a slime ball

I absolutely loved Joe going off the rails today regarding tRump and his delusional loyalists attacking decorated military veterans.  It was a thing of beauty - and I'll probably never have cause to use that description regarding Ol' Beady Eyes ever again.

I would have had a lot more respect for Comey's integrity if he had waited until after Mueller's report before releasing his book. He seems to be jumping on this timetable for maximum sales ( I know, duh) but I'm concerned that this just proves what Trump was saying about Comey being a grand stander and puts him in the Michael Wolf category where the whole book will seem tainted.
