If this “feud” is authentic (and I don’t think there is anything legitimate about either Trump OR the Morning Ho) then it is just one more of, really, countless internecine disputes between Republicans. Each of them brings joy to my heart. And we still have six more months of this delight!
There is nothing cute about any of these buffoons…They have turned into raging media whores just like drump!
“They misrepresent my positions!”
What positions, Donald? The only thing I recall JoeScar mentioned was your ban of Muslims entering the country which you’ve repeated numerous times to many people.
How about you define your positions, Donny? Flip flop doesn’t even start to cover the muddled mind of a mad man with a mic.
Halperin tried to redirect the conversation, saying the only way a Republican can win the White House “is if the press favors them in coverage,” a chance he said Trump is missing.
WTF?? So the press wants to favor Trump…they just need to have their boots licked?
I mean, what is he saying here? Not that we didn’t know, but he’s admitting the press is completely corrupt.
What a joke this is. Joe and Mika packaged and sold the Trumpster to the American public just like other news media outlets did. By asking ridiculous questions with out following up with out trying to pin down the Donald with his lies and giving him free airtime, only made the Trumpster what he is today. Now Joe and Mika are the news over this being treated badly by Donlad Trump? How naive does Joe and Mika believe the American public is of this game that they are playing to boost their ratings.
Mika and Joe are now on the same level as YouTube comment posters.
mutual masturbation is extremely disturbing to watch…
It was one of the most craven, unprofessional and unethical acts of journalistic misfeasance when MSNBC left these Morning Ho’s on the air after they were caught RED-HANDED (well, open-mic’d) PLANNING their questioning of Trump, promising they would “go soft” on him, kissing up to him before an interview. It was as obscene as Faux News’ leaving liar O’Reilly on the air after Mother Jones and numerous other entities demonstrated conclusively how O’Reilly completely fabricated “reporting” stories in the past. In both instances, there should have been without question, at the least, a suspension. Of course, one does not expect it of Faux. But I and many others expected more of MSNBC. They lost my respect and my viewership
This is all probably a masquerade to cover up the incestuous relationship between Trump and the Morning Ho. I mean, they were caught on tape colluding together before an interview. So now they’re “adversaries”? I don’t buy it for a minute.
Halperin is over of the few people who can make Scarborough seem like less of a tool.
Trump demonstrates why the old “equal time” rule had a sound justification. Had the media been required to actually provide even the appearance of balanced coverage during this campaign Trump would have had only a fraction of the air time he was given.
Trump has proven that the media does not live up to it’s responsibility as the provider of invormation needed for a representative democracy to function. We need to reevaluate the preferential treatment given to them.
Mark Halperin can’t win the “World’s Biggest Douchebag” war against Donald Trump, but MAN, he’s trying.

Trump has a lengthy list of nonsensical statements every journo should have at the ready when interviewing him. They're famously blatant lies and falsehoods, or idiotic on their face. He was against the Iraq war before it started. He thinks the U.S. can negotiate down debt. He will deport 11 million illegal/undocumented aliens during his Presidency. For those doing the math, assuming two terms, that's 628 people per hour, every hour of every day, for 730 consecutive days, no interruptions. You can go on for pages and pages of this stuff. Yet he can say something in an interview and it's "OK, now, let's move on to another subject" from the interviewer. Halperin implies Trump needs positive coverage to win. He's not already getting that, free, hours and hours a week, right now?
Who watches these two clowns?
They learned everything they know about journalism from Bryan Williams and Chris Matthews…who have always considered themselves the story instead of the subject being discussed?
Apparently, Trump?
Donald Trump. The Original Stand-up Politician.
• Has a routine.
• Knows his crowd
• Riffs for response
• Puts down hecklers
Tip your talk-show host!
Trump will be here all week, er, year!

A riff between Scarborough and Trump opened last week
I didn’t know they both knew how to play music.
With a demagogue any coverage is good coverage. Works well for most South American dictators.
Trump comes from the WWE School of Publicity Chasing. The indecent propaganda comes straight from the GOP’s Lee Atwater/Karl Rove Playbook. No wonder both Trump and conservative Republicans think Americans want to be a third world country?
