The hosts of MSNBC&#8217;s flagship morning show &#8220;Morning Joe&#8221; announced on Monday that they were attempting to mend fences with President-elect Donald Trump — but not everyone was ready to simply forget their years of pointedly negative coverage.
Hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski explained during Monday morning&#8217;s broadcast that they had met with Trump at Mar-a-Lago over the weekend — the first time they had spoken face to face in seven years — and that while they had not agreed on a number of issues, they had agreed that it was past time &#8220;to restart communications.&#8221;

Joe and Mika went to Mar a Lago to talk with Trump over the weekend. First face-to-face meeting in seven years. &#8220;We didn&#8217;t see eye-to-eye on a lot of issues and we told him so,&#8221; <a href="https://twitter.com/JoeNBC?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@JoeNBC</a> says. &#8220;What we did agree on – was to restart communications,&#8221; <a href="https://twitter.com/morningmika?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@morningmika</a> says. <a href="https://t.co/lyWZWK4CwX">pic.twitter.com/lyWZWK4CwX</a>

Brzezinski began by attacking Trump&#8217;s cabinet picks thus far, saying that she agreed with many concerned people she&#8217;d spoken to and &#8220;they are scary.&#8221; Still, she said they had visited Mar-a-Lago to speak with Trump when they got the chance.
Scarborough noted that they had discussed a number of issues with Trump, from abortion to deportations and threats of political retribution — and that, unsurprisingly, they had not agreed on many things.
Brzezinski also revealed that Scarborough had made a personal call to Trump the morning after the first attempt on his life at the rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.

&#8220;Joe and I realized it&#8217;s time to do something different and that starts with not only talking about Donald Trump, but also talking with him,&#8221; Brzezinski added.
But still, there were those on the Right who felt that &#8220;Morning Joe&#8221; was offering too little too late.

&#8220;So all that stuff about Trump being a fascist, etc was a load of crap. MSNBC viewers are the biggest dupes on earth,&#8221; another said.

&#8220;Annals of shamelessness: They call Trump a fascist, and much, much more, and then, just 22 days after his &#8216;Nazi-like&#8217; rally, they fly to Florida for an audience. Afterward, they say, &#8216;We didn&#8217;t see eye-to-eye on a lot of issues,&#8217; but they want to &#8216;restart communications.&#8217; What?&#8221; Byron York said.

&#8220;MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough and Mika went to Mar-a-Lago to meet with Trump and agreed to &#8216;reset&#8217; their relationship. Proving yet again that Democrats never actually thought Trump was Hitler or a fascist dictator. If you were propagandized, it’s ok. You got played. Usual dem playbook,&#8221; another said.
