Check out ‘Morning Joe’ host's pathetic defense of kissing Trump's ring
Mika Brzezinski, who co-hosts MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” with her husband, Joe Scarborough, defended visiting Mar-a-Lago to pay homage to Donald Trump, in a podcast interview released Thursday.
Despite criticizing Trump for several years, the couple visited Trump following the election as part of a reported attempt to reestablish ties between the pair and the Republican leader.
Appearing on The Daily Beast podcast, Brzezinski was unapologetic about the decision to bend to Trump.
“It’s time to start talking face-to-face—on the record, on background, reconnecting. And it doesn’t have to be easy. It doesn’t have to be fun. It’s not supposed to be. It’s our job. So for us, it absolutely felt like the right thing to do because it is our job,” Brzezinski said.
