It was the first time they had seen him in seven years, she said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tScarborough said, \u201cWe talked about a lot of issues, including abortion, mass deportations, threats of political retribution against political opponents and media outlets. We talked about that a good bit. It is going to come as no surprise to anyone who watches this show, has watched it over the past year or the past decade, that we didn\u2019t see eye to eye on a lot of issues, and we told him so.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\t\u201cWhat we did agree on is to restart communications,\u201d Brzezinski said, noting that her father Zbigniew Brzezinski, national security adviser under Jimmy Carter, would speak to world leaders with whom he and the United States \u201cprofoundly disagreed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tShe said they had not spoken to Trump since March, 2020, other than a call Scarborough placed to him on the morning after the attempt on his life in July.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\t\u201cIn this meeting, Trump was cheerful, he was upbeat, he seemed interested in finding common ground with Democrats on some of the most divisive issues,\u201d Brzezinski said. \u201cAnd for those asking why we would go speak to the president elect during such fraught times, especially between us, I guess I would ask back, \u2018why wouldn\u2019t we?\u2019 Five years of political warfare has deeply divided Washington and the country. We have been as clear as we know how in expressing deep concerns about President Trump\u2019s actions and words in the coarsening of public debate. But for nearly 80 million Americans, election denialism, public trials, January 6th were not as important as the issues that moved them to send Donald Trump back to the White House with their vote. Joe and I realized it is time to do something different, and that starts with not only talking about Donald Trump but also talking with him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tBrzezinski said that they asked for the meeting after hearing \u201cfrom so many people, from political leaders to regular citizens deeply dismayed by several\u201d of Trump\u2019s cabinet selections, and \u201cthey are scared.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tFrom time to time, Trump has lashed out at the two hosts, particularly during his first term. In 2020, he <a href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/2020\/05\/donald-trump-joe-scarborough-lori-klausutis-2-1202943663\/\">spread a false rumor <\/a>that Scarborough was somehow responsible for the death of a congressional aide when he was serving in the House. The woman\u2019s widower pleaded with then Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey to take down the then-president\u2019s tweet, but the platform refused.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tTheir latest meeting was met with harsh criticism from the right and the left. On social media, Trump supporters noted that the <em>Morning Joe <\/em>hosts had warned of authoritarianism and even fascism, yet met with him anyway.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\t\u201cHitler getting alot more meeting requests than I would\u2019ve thought,\u201d Scott Jennings, the CNN political commentator, wrote on X.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tAnti-Trump figures also were harsh over the decision, with former <a href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/tag\/msnbc\/\" id=\"auto-tag_msnbc\" data-tag=\"msnbc\">MSNBC<\/a> host Keith Olbermann posting on X, \u201cLook, this isn\u2019t complex. Joe Scarborough has always been a political whore.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tFormer Rep. Adam Kinzinger wrote on X, \u201cThe fact that they went without getting an interview, but just to make up, is worse.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tDuring the presidential campaign, Trump repeatedly blasted MSNBC owner Comcast and said that the company should be investigated for treason. His rhetoric has raised concerns that corporate media owners, anxious to get in the incoming president\u2019s good graces, would cave to his pressure tactics. The Washington Post saw an exodus of subscribers after it was revealed that its owner, vetoed plans for an editorial page endorsement of Kamala Harris. During his first term, Trump repeatedly attacked Bezos over the Post\u2019s coverage, threatening to investigate Amazon over antitrust issues. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\t<em>On Morning Joe<\/em>, Scarborough said, \u00a0\u201cWe are not here to defend or normalize Donald Trump. We are here to report on him and to hopefully provide you insights that are going to better equip all of us in understanding these deeply unsettling times.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/2024\/11\/trump-morning-joe-joe-scarborough-mika-brzezinski-1236180060\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski said that they met with Donald Trump on Friday, in what they described as an effort to restart communications with the president-elect after years of &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/?p=127410\" class=\"more-link\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8629],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-127410","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-u-s","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/127410","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=127410"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/127410\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=127410"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=127410"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=127410"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
