(Daily Caller) Megyn Kelly called out “Morning Joe” hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski on Monday after they did a “180” on their views of President-elect Donald Trump.
After the hosts and a handful of their guests repeatedly likened Trump to Adolf Hitler and alleged he would be a fascist dictator, Scarborough and Brzezinski announced Monday that they had visited Trump in a face-to-face meeting at Mar-a-Lago for the first time in several years. On “The Megyn Kelly Show,” the SiriusXM host began by highlighting how the MSNBC hosts had pushed fears of a second Trump administration, telling them to “fuck off” for their alleged insincerity.
“That is where we are beginning today with the absolutely ridiculous pair on the MSNBC morning show, Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski,” Kelly said. “How long have they been telling us that he’s an existential threat, that he’s a Hitler-esque figure, that he’s a fascist, that women will die, will die if he gets elected? Well, they’ve done a 180. They’ve done a 180 as their ratings circle the bowl.”
“I searched for a way to respond appropriately, and I called on my 10 years as a litigator in addition to my now 20 as a journalist,” Kelly said. “I think I found the perfect phrase. Go fuck yourselves. Go fuck yourselves, you dishonest jokes of faux journalists. What an absurd farce that was, Glenn. Which one was insincere? He’s Hitler or now we’re gonna speak truth to power and find a way of speaking to and working with Donald Trump? Which one was a lie?”
Guest and independent journalist Glenn Greenwald then jumped in to state how the MSNBC hosts take the “crown” for being one of the most “humiliated and pathetic” pair in corporate media.
“This is not hyperbole. I’ve given actual thought to this. I’ve done rankings. Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski are the most humiliated and pathetic people on all of corporate media,” Greenwald said. “I realize there’s a lot of serious contenders for that crown. So if other people have someone they wanna slot in number one, I wouldn’t necessarily say it’s unreasonable.”
