So it was Bill Clinton in the WH, and Joe in Congress.  Joe Scarborough personally, by himself, balanced a budget. 

Joe said on a previous show that he had meetings with Clinton & gave Clinton several suggestions on how to balance the budget. Clinton agreed with Joe. Joe said Clinton wasn't mad at him for voting to impeach him. Clinton realized that it was just politics.

Joe always seems to forget there were 434 other members of Congress, and that the Speaker  would be meeting with POTUS, maybe along with the House Budget Committee, but not solely with a junior Congressman from FL, and certainly not discussing budget with the chairman of the  House Committee on Civil Service, a post so valuable that the committee does not even exist anymore.  Joe was NOT on the House Budget Committee.  He wasn't Majority Whip so I'm not sure where he gets off believing he had all this power. 

As Nancy put it, he's one vote. 

Here's his Congressional CV if anyone wants to fact check his daily on air bullshit.

Perhaps Joe had back channels to the White House ?

Joe said he led the revolt against Speaker Gingrich.

It's possible that every one was afraid of Joe ranting in the Capitol building.

Mika said issues are important to defeat Trump.

Mika said that Democrats have to appeal to Trump voters and stop promising Medicare for all & Healthcare for illegal immigrants. She is parotting Joe's talking points.

Goodness I haven't watched the show all week but am exhausted reading your comments.  Nothing ever changes.  Sigh, God help us I beg of you on so many levels including these two bobble heads that man the MSNBC anchor desk from 6am-9am.  What a waste of premium air time.

It's a tough show to watch & recap.

I think some of the show will be pre empted tomorrow with coverage of Robert Mueller's testimony.

NBC has refused to allow Mika & Joe to be the sole anchor's on the Mueller testimony.

It’s something I ponder - why is Joe, a former Congressman, never used as a commenter when there are Congressional hearings? Personally I’d rather listen to David Jolly, but hasn’t Joe told us he’s personally responsible for all that is good in Congress?  And isn’t Mika the one that taught Pelosi to KYV? Just weird they wouldn’t anchor the  hearings...

8:30 AM:  "And we will be having gavel to gavel coverage all day".  How wonderful.  Let me take a PTO day so that I can sit at home in front of the TV and watch something that will make no difference whatsoever and in no way no how.

WTF was that whole Jar Jar Bins riff?  How will the testimony be anything like Jar Jar Binks?  I did not watch that Star Wars movie.  Mika and I were not getting plastic surgery together that day.....

I must have woken up in an alternative universe this morning as I am actually enjoying Joe's commentary/ranting this morning.  I was not happy about how Bob Mueller's testimony was covered and I am glad Joe is defending him (loved his Ragin' Cajun imitation) and I'm glad they showed those clips about how awful some of those representatives were.  I pray nothing is wrong with Mr. Mueller and that his demeanor was due to him doing exactly what he said he was going to do and would not be dragged into the political fray.

Looking good Morning Joe!

Money well spent, looks like he even dropped a few bags off that were under his eyes.

And, as per usual, Mika hasn't added a single syllable that anyone needs or wants to hear.  And Joe is right, Mika's a sexist for saying Kasie needs to put her feet up when Kasie is there to do her goddamn job and hasn't asked to put her feet up.  

Does Heilemann have new glasses?  I thought so yesterday on Nicolle's show.

Oh I know right?  I am so glad I tuned in and stayed (I usually have wandered off by now).  He is my absolute favorite.  So calm, reasoned and fair.

And yes Heilemann has new glasses.  Can't say I am a fan, they have that 70's aviator vibe but I'm always happy to see him too.  Glad he's back from vacation.

What we saw is who he is. He does not schmooze. He is irascible, he is a ball buster. His idea of a morning greeting is to say "How, exactly, does a person find a tie like that?" 

Holy hell, Mika is a waste of time, effort and space.

Thursday recap. Mika is wearing all black today. Willie showed up. Joe is wearing a new shirt.

His hair is very puffed up again.

The opening montage of Trump 's statements vs Mueller was brilliant.

Joe ranted against the GOP for allowing Trump to get help from the Russians .

Joe took a shot at Chuck Todd who said that optics of Mueller's testimony was a disaster.

Hopefully, Joe will demand a meeting with MSNBC to reprimand Todd.

Joe is demanding an impeachment inquiry.

Joe said Mueller is a Vietnam war hero He was shot in Vietnam.

Joe said he was asked to stay on as FBI director after 9/11.

Joe said Mueller was challenged by a physical condition.

I don't like Heileman's new glasses.

Joe said the GOP is doomed.

Epstein is injured. He is on suicide watch.

Color me shocked that Joe said something I agree with--if the Republicans are going to label capitalist Democrats as Socialists, it's only fair that the Democrats label the Republicans as Fascists.

Joe tweeted yesterday "Jesus please forgive me for ever being a Republican".

I woke up to his rant about Trump and thought the same thing, what world am I in that I agree with Joe. If Dems are going to fight Trump then they better get ready to fight back, hard.  Call in Mueller's staff to testify now. Stop letting Barr intimidate you. You have oversight over DOJ.

Heileman was upset that Democrats wanted the testimony to be exciting like watching a movie.

Mueller did not do his job to be a good actor for the Democrats.

Heilemann wants the Democrats to launch an impeachment inquiry.

Heilemann is mad at Bill Barr for lying about Mueller's report.

Democrats didn't fight back against Bill Barr.

Democrats need a leader like Joe. Joe said Democrats are inept.

How, exactly, is Mueller physically or mentally challenged?  Granted, I could not bring myself to watch yesterday's hearings in their entirety.  His voice is weak,...he is maybe 74?  His body is 74 years old? He suffered a wound in Vietnam.  He has not testified at a hearing like this in maybe years? After 9/11?   

When I saw some of the reviews of Mueller's testimony (the morning one) I was depressed when I read what some "journalists" were saying about him...his legacy was destroyed, terrible performance, etc.  But the clips I saw of the afternoon hearing reflected a man who measures every word he says.  Maybe not in a forceful tone; but geez! I wonder want pundits like Joe would have said had Mueller raised his voice? Ranted a little?  Said we are all doomed?  You know, like Joe does every day.

I am not trying to defend Mueller; he is who he is.  But I agree with ... maybe Heileman? .. that the Dems need to do THEIR jobs (sorry for the caps) and stop depending on others.  And Yes! to Joe on the Chuck Todd criticism.  I have seen funny/sarcastic criticism of Todd in several print outlets.  At least he didn't lead the coverage yesterday.

Agreed!. Mueller is not a blowhard like Joe. He had to be very careful with his responses.

Joe is discussing his political career. Joe said he wanted to defeat his opponents so badly that their dog would be embarrassed.

Joe said he campaigned fairly.

Joe said he had an instinct for winning!.

Mika stated swooning at Joe's tough talk.

Joe blasted Cruz for not fighting back against Trump.

Joe blasted Jeb Bush for not fighting Trump.

Joe is Rambo today!

Mika 's head was bobbing in agreement with Joe.

I heard it explained that he did not prepare every bit of the report, his staff did, and like all of us, we aren't going to remember every word of a 400 page complicated report, without pausing to look something up, etc. 

Why aren't they having his staff testify???  Why just him?

As soon as I saw Mueller walk into the hearing room, I thought "He's not well". Perhaps he is now suffering from the wounds he received in Vietnam? Maybe his body is actually older than 74 due to his past injuries? No matter, I think the important points were addressed. I just saw the hearing today because we lost our cable all day yesterday. As I listened to the hearing, I also wondered if he has a health problem. I guess we will find out soon enough.

Hey ho, happy Friday everybody.  Apparently today's Drinking Game is "Moscow Mitch" as Joe is loving that phrase bigly.

Another watchable show (so far).  For me, I think it's because Joe doesn't bring up Joe very often.  He's more focused on outrage at various issues that I too have angst/fear over so this is working for me.

Ok they have a poll graphic and I believe the photo they have attributed to Steyer is actually Sen. Michael Bennett . . . ooopie.
