Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski met the president-elect at Mar-a-Lago on Friday.
“Morning Joe” co-hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski have agreed to “restart communications” with Donald Trump after a long-standing feud with the president-elect but insisted they would not “normalize” him.
The pair, among the most vocal cable news critics of Trump during the 2024 election campaign, revealed they sat down with the incoming president at his Mar-a-Lago, Florida, estate on Friday to have clear-the-air talks. It was their first face-to-face meeting in seven years.
