The president told the TV host about his plans for Venezuela in one of half a dozen calls between the under-the-radar phone pals.

Opening Morning Joe on Tuesday, host Joe Scarborough suggested he has Trump on speed dial, saying he had spoken with the 79-year-old six times on the phone since the president returned to office last January.

In the most recent call, which took place Monday, the pair chatted about the surprise U.S. military operation that resulted in the arrest of Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Scarborough said.

It might surprise a few that Trump would confide in Scarborough, given the president’s outwardly hostile relationship with the host’s network, MS NOW. Scarborough, along with his co-hosts, is highly critical of Trump and his second term, despite his own background in the GOP.

However, Scarborough’s co-host and wife, Mika Brzezinski, said on SiriusXM’s Andy Cohen Live in September that the trio actually maintain contact, despite their public differences.
