Joe Scarborough is not on Morning Joe

this morning. Wonder if it is because of the words he exchanged with Donald over Twitter yesterday. Oh and lead story is DNC hack and the Clinton emails. They are asking if more damaging emails will be released before the election. Wonder if they will back off Trump after he criticized their show yesterday.

I like to see the sexual tension between him and Mika. I like to hear what most of the guests on the show have to say. I'm loving the dance repukes are doing to explain away their candidate.

Oh, and my husband feels just like you do about Scar and the show...

shit like a "good little girl". And she is not very bright in my view; she just nods and goes along with whatever he says.

I enjoy observing people as they react to various stimuli. Apparently many people on DU like to get their news from MSNBC, but many complain about the personalities or the messages. I find that rather amusing.

I simply wanted to point out that some people like me prefer to their news not previously screened for particular political view. Based on some of the comments I'm getting the impression that MSNBC is attempting (in a rather clumsily fashion) trying to move to that model and many long time viewers aren't happy.

Of course I could be 100% wrong since I never watch MSNBC or FOX.

You don't think MSNBC would WANT him to start feuding with Trump?
