MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski rekindle ties with President-elect Trump, highlighting mainstream media’s opportunistic flip-flopping.

I was in media for forty years. I can smell a media kiss ass. They smell like Joe and Mika, the dynamic duo of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.” After years of flip-flopping like a fish out of water, they’ve decided it’s time to “restart communications” with President-elect Donald Trump. Why not? They’ve just spent the last two years calling the President Elect a fascist and Hitler – literally Hitler. Because nothing says journalistic integrity, like changing your tune every election cycle.

They’ve adequately brainwashed their tiny audience into believing their gas lighting blather, and now they’re changing their tune.

Remember when Joe and Mika were all buddy-buddy with Trump during his 2016 campaign? They laughed at his jokes, gave him free airtime, and practically handed him a megaphone. But as soon as the winds shifted, they turned on him faster than a weathervane in a hurricane. Suddenly, Trump was the enemy, and they were leading the charge against him. Now, with Trump’s unexpected victory in 2024, they’re back at Mar-a-Lago, trying to cozy up to the man they once vilified. Talk about having your cake and eating it too.

But let’s not just pick on Joe and Mika. The entire mainstream media has been playing this game for years. They’ve lied, manipulated, and gaslit the public, all while pretending to be the bastions of truth. They’ve been shills for the Democratic Party and other radical leftists, pushing narratives that suit their agendas. And now, with Trump’s victory, their credibility is in the toilet. Americans are wise to their scam, and the ratings are plummeting faster than a lead balloon.

The media’s hypocrisy knows no bounds. They preach about journalistic ethics and integrity, yet they flip-flop on issues and politicians whenever it suits them. They claim to hold the powerful accountable, yet they cozy up to those in power when it’s convenient. And now, as they scramble to stay relevant in a world that’s moving on without them, they’re willing to do whatever it takes to get back in the game. Even if it means crawling back to the very people they once demonized.

So, here’s to Joe and Mika, the poster children for media opportunism. May your ratings continue to tank, and may the public continue to see through your charade. The mainstream media is dead, and you two are just dancing on its grave.
