Alleged facelift, I should say. It’d be a fun postscript to this own-goal if the president of the United States got sued by a cable-news host for defamation.
As nasty and stupid as it is for him to sink to this, increasingly I think it’s the least he can do for his base. We may not get a decent health-care bill or tax reform or stronger borders but we’ll have plenty of sick media burns to look back on when we reflect on the Trump years. This panem et circenses is the best panem et circenses, believe me:
I heard poorly rated @Morning_Joe speaks badly of me (don't watch anymore). Then how come low I.Q. Crazy Mika, along with Psycho Joe, came..

The standards for presidential decorum were higher not so long ago! Anyway, he’s getting it from all sides in the aftermath. From Brzezinski herself…

…from her network spokesmen…
Never imagined a day when I would think to myself, "it is beneath my dignity to respond to the President of the United States."

Please just stop. This isn't normal and it's beneath the dignity of your office.

Mr. President, your tweet was beneath the office and represents what is wrong with American politics, not the greatness of America.

MESSAGE DISCIPLINE! Today ALL comms coming out of WH shd be focused on #KatesLaw and #NoSanctuaryforCriminalsAct — not cable TV hosts.

Although one man remains ever loyal:
Maybe liberal Joe should stop calling the @POTUS a schmuck, a liar, a thug and mentally unhinged. Were they kissing @POTUS ass at xmas? Yes https://t.co/Ehf4EHvcjS

And of course, Team Trump is on message — not about health care or energy but about the president’s main preoccupation. Keep in mind, Melania Trump’s main initiative as First Lady thus far has been, uh, combating cyberbullying:

I wonder if “Morning Joe” imagined when it was promoting this guy during the Republican primaries that the story would end with him tweeting about Mika’s plastic surgery from the White House. And to think, less than six months ago Trump was supposedly offering to officiate at Joe’s and Mika’s wedding. In hindsight, perhaps we’ll remember today as the day Scarborough resolved to primary Trump.
I’m already looking forward to the investigation into Mika’s facelift on tonight’s very special episode of “Hannity.” In lieu of an exit question, I’ll just link you to this old post by Kevin Williamson written the day of the Indiana primary last year, when Trump eliminated Ted Cruz and effectively clinched the nomination. Ben Shapiro makes a fair point: In certain ways, Trump is the right-wing equivalent of late-night liberal comedians like Samantha Bee or Stephen Colbert. The difference is that the left hasn’t sought to make any of them president. Yet.
All the whiners here remind me of the British during the revolution who thought it ungentlemanly when we shot the officers long range leaving them essentially leaderless. I am sure none of you has ever led anything morv than a discussion on what type of bread is appropriate for a Peanut butter and jelly sandwich
Strategy and tactics, you never cede ground to your enemy and obviously they are whining (as are many here) because we are not conducting press conferences and such
U see no issue with Tweeting and I am over 60, you take the fight to them and ridicule is the “choice of weapon” they made, so fire for effect
Sheesh,grow a pair
“I think the clue to this tweet is the facelift comment”
Yes it is the reason for the tweet. You are right about these people that loved him before. My guess is that they used Mar-a-Largo as a discrete getaway to do the dirty deed on their spouses. President Trump has the dirt on them.
Hannity said something about Joe trying to get a gig at CNN and Fox, but they both turned him down. The MSNBC bosses turned the heat up on Joe to get nasty with the President and the poor boy had nowhere to go.
Scarborough is truly one of the dirtiest backstabbers on cable. He is not even his own man. Once the “well educated” Mika got her fangs into him, he has turned himself into some fake conservative/fake liberal/fake man.
Now when the man talks, he sounds like a twisted blend of DC/NY/CT elitism, turning a simple word into a pretzel, as he tries to get rid of any hint of his Panhandle background. He puffs up his hair and puts on the Mika approved,”smart” glasses.
What a waste of human being!
“Fact is, we finally have a Republican who smashed these people in the mouth.”

I agree with everything that you wrote,but———Trump smashed them in the mouth with his debate style and rally speeches,not his 3:00 AM Tweets. That got him the votes,the win,and the ultimate smackdown.
.
Sounds like someone needs a hug....
So are you saying his tweets had no effect, or a negative effect?
not sure mika is worth a trump tweet..who pays any attention to what mika thinks...why would trump bother with her at all???
Trumps’ message to the Left: Don’t start none, won’t be none....
A master of the field of battle. Like a surgeon, wielding the sword of truth with precision and animus!

RE: AllahPundit is a never Trump jerk. Always wrong.
You mean Trump never tweeted the things AllahPundit says he did?
“So are you saying his tweets had no effect, or a negative effect?”
IMHO the Tweets had no effect on his election and a negative effect on his presidency.
He’s become a joke to many people-——not liking him is one thing,laughing at him is another. He has SO MUCH to offer-—it’s sad.
.
He acts like I would having grown up in Da Bronx and Brooklyn! He fights back and he has the stage to prove that not only is he a fighter but he’s a bloody Winner too:-)
When the SHTF whatever it takes? Or just talk?
Bless your heart.
His Tweets are the real deal. I love it when he sends out authentic messages.
“Bless your heart.”

I watched Hannity on you tube a video called you are a phony. It’s really just Hannity ripping Joe Scarborough.
Near the end around the 3:30 mark, Joe Scarborough is shown doing his new song about DJT called mystified. I tried to find just the song, but can’t except for this Hannity clip. It is sooooooooo bad, that it is hilarious. You can tell he actually thinks he is cool and he’s all serious in the video. Please try to find it and watch. My goodness, there is nothing worse than some older fart, who thinks he is hip and cool, but comes across as just pathetic. That video should go viral.
