As I was watching I couldn’t help but wonder if Michael Steele now has more political capital to take them on. His weekend show with Alicia and Symone is a hit. I would love to see the three of them take over the the Morning Joe slot. I also think Joe knows it too. That’s why he was so obnoxious constantly interrupting Michael. He sees him as a threat.

I was watching MJ when this conversation took place. Joe can’t help himself. He interrupts every guest and especially Mika. He’s downright rude. I thought Micheal Steele had the best of him, however.

ETA: Welcome to DU.

That must’ve come on after I left for work.

Steele's smart, and civil.

and started a thread
Bravo Michael Steele

tabletop in front of her.

God bless Michael Steele.

Joe's fallback position nowadays is to argue that people who participate in social media are unserious and, as he said weeks ago, "stupid." He's a total failure.

Joe Scarborough is so phony, so inauthentic, so insincere and so washed up. He rea

Thanks for posting this! I hope this will be discussed.

Will Michael Steele ever be invited back on the show?

a clip on DU of that encounter. I can’t stand Joe and Mika and they really screwed up going down to kiss trumps ass after the election. Haven’t watched them since Biden became president in 2021. Michael did a great job.

It’s because Joe knows he’s wrong and has been called out on it. Joe mistakes volume for veracity, his loud bellowing makes him look like a weak bully who can’t handle being wrong, or disagreed with

Good for Steele standing up to the bully.

I stopped watching the show some time ago. Joe & Mika kissing up to Trump is disgusting and not worth my time.

Joe was a republican congressional representative. He still is at heart. Probably loved going to kiss trump's ring.

So he demonstrated how uncivil he is by interrupting and talking over Michael Steele, in an effort to defend his civility.

Sling. Democracy Now. Stephanie Miller, who is getting a lot of their same guest speakers now. No more Morn Joe, cause he can't shut up.

I haven't watched any of it for over 2 months and don't intend to watch any shows going forward, so it's good to see Michael Steele talking up like that. I had been wondering how much criticism in general Joe and Mika had gotten from their various guests after The "Visit"

Joe and Mika have always been a dumb pair of talking heads. And Joe always talks over everyone and doesn't listen to anyone. They are unwatchable. What a pair!

until those 2 fucks are FIRED. not one minute. fuck you msnbc.

I knew that most people would side with Michael Steele.

He’s high on my list of Republicans who have redeemed themselves, which includes David Jolly, Anna Navarro, Nicole Wallace, Adam Kinzinger and others. Joe Scarborough, not so much.

To the degenerate scumbags destroying our democracy???

Fuck YOU, Joe.

I’m sure he’s demanding from the higher ups that Steele be fired, pronto. Keith Olbermann has had Scarborough’s number for a long time. If anything, that morning show should be called Morning Mike, maybe I’d start watching again.

... I heard the part about Joe saying we should be civil to Crooked Donald. I'll take Michael's word for it... we do not need to be civil. Peaceful, yes... civil disobedience... What's more surprising is seeing BOTH Joe & Mica in the STUDIO, presumably LIVE on a Friday withing 3 weeks of a Holiday!

Because that's what's on MSNBC in the morning.

Nobody actually wants to watch Joe Scar. He doesn't have actual fans. (Rachel has fans. Lawrence has fans.)

Joe was quite cringy here.

Good for Steele. He was too soft on them in my opinion I would’ve said much worse.

I wouldn’t mind hearing what he has to say again,, if i ever turn on TV news again.

My dilemma is which Republican do I think won? I’ll pick Steele.

And don’t come at me with, “ They’re not Republicans anymore.” Once a Republican, always a republican. That’s my only similarity to an elephant I don’t forget
