The hosts of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” said Monday that former Republican National Committee Chair Ronna McDaniel — NBC News’s new paid contributor — will not be asked to appear on their show as a guest, pointing to her role in helping former President Trump’s efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election.

Co-hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski in their Monday broadcast sharply criticized the network for hiring McDaniel and called on NBC News to reconsider the decision.

“To be clear, we believe NBC News should seek out conservative Republican voices to provide balance in their election coverage. But it should be conservative Republicans, not a person who used her position of power to be an anti-democracy election denier,” Brzezinski said.

“And we hope NBC will reconsider its decision. It goes without saying that she will not be a guest on ‘Morning Joe’ in her capacity as a paid contributor,” Brzezinski added.

Joe has always been who he is now.

He was paid for his acting role as a representative of Florida.

That's who they all are.

Paid actors lying through their teeth to further their father the head liars agenda.

She’s a Romney. I don’t know what their problem is with her. She’s going to stab the repug party in the back and they should love that.

LOL. She got all the plastic surgery she needed on the donor’s dime. Time to “WHORE” somewhere else.
