Mika: Hard to tell if people talking about Kim Jong Un or Trump
Trump “hungry for war” and “hungry to make unhinged decisions”
There was an extended conversation on today’s Morning Joe as to whether Kim Jong Un could be deterred.
The discussion centered around the question of whether Kim is a rational actor. There was absolutely no ambiguity. The panel was discussing Kim’s rationality or lack thereof. Sample statement: John Heilemann asked what Mattis, Tillerson, and McMaster “think about the rationality of this North Korean leader?”
But that did not, ahem, deter Mika Brzezinski from saying, in her most serious and somber tone:
“When you talk about the rationality of the leaders . . . I honestly did not know which leader you were talking about, whether it was Trump or the North Korean leader? And that’s the sort of elephant in the room . . . So there’s this part here that is unspoken.”
There’s no reason to give Mika the benefit of the doubt in saying she was feigning confusion. But if indeed Mika did not know that the panel was discussing Kim and not Trump, then it is Brzezinski’s hold on reality that is seriously in question.
MIKA BRZEZINSKI: So we talk about these two leaders, and then Mattis, and Tillerson, and Kelly. The only problem is, when you talk about the rationality of the leaders, and a lot of this conversation, I honestly did not know which leader you were talking about, whether it was Trump or the North Korean leader?
And that’s the sort of elephant in the room, that we are dealing with a president that some might argue is very hungry for war. Or is hungry to make unhinged decisions. And I’m not sure how much influence our foreign policy leaders have over that ultimately, when a decision is made. You remember over a year ago, General Hayden saying on our show that it was quick. It’s quick when it happens. So there’s this part here that’s unspoken.”
Note: watch Joe watching Mika as she plunged off the deep end. What do you think was going through his mind?

It is interesting. Democrats are afraid to confront anything but Republicans. Republicans have always scattered like little mice with a cat in the room. Finally the Republican’s have a man who stands up to the Democrats. They think he must be unhinged. Talk about projection.
Too late. He married her.
It might not be too late. According to this article, they’re not getting married until next year:

I’m not an expert on CTE, but had her ex considered the advantages of a padded headboard, we would not be having this conversation.
Are bare headboards a form of domestic violence?
Mika like so many on the left has let her Trump hate destroy any credibility that she/they had. In her case it wasn’t much but now she’s just silly. Come to think of it, she always was.
That doesn’t say much for the man sitting next to her and who is going to marry her. He sort of has to marry her now because what happens to the show if they split?
Think about it Joe – it’s the “Morning Joe” show and they are a whole lot of other dumb blonds who could take the Brzezinski nitwit’s place. There are even a whole lot of smart blonds that actually might make the show more interesting.
But then there would still be Joe and his company of lefty loons…
Maybe this is where Megan Kelly will finally hit bottom.
Trump must have really hurt her bad with his comments about her face lift! 🙂 ahahahaha 🙂
It’s only hard for you to tell, Bubbles.
… if it were kim, mika, you’d be in prison…. could you tell then?
The editorial discretion around here and the infatuation with certain frivolties makes me shake my head. Do we REALLY need a commentary on every single episode of the Morning Joke on MSNBC? Both of the vapid clowns on there are oxygen thieves and a waste of protoplasm.
There is much more fertile and important ground to be plowed in the legal commentary sphere. For instance, to date, there still has been no analysis and commentary here on the ridiculous order that district court judge Orlando Garcia entered staying the statute in Texas that proscribes sanctuary cities and prescribes cooperation with feds. The judge accepted some highly dubious First Amendment arguments and ignored that they were acting within the scope of their employment and the necessary Pickering analysis of the issues, that the state authorized the establishment of local govts and LEO agencies and some are even constitutional officers, and that all of them had taken an oath to uphold the constitutions of Texas and the US, which would include the Supremacy Clause and Immigration and Naturalization Clause. Further, it was not Congress that mandated such things, it was the state legislature, so the subtle hints of SCOTUS’ reasoning in Printz present in the district court’s reasoning is specious.
ODB, I respect your preference for serious legal analysis. But although I am still a member of the New York bar, legal analysis is not my beat here. Professor Jacobson does offer a lot of excellent legal analysis.
My niche is critiquing the liberal media. Some find it useful to know what’s being said out there. Others, such as yourself, not so much.
If occasionally one of my items seems interesting to you, please do jump in.
As much as I despise these two media clowns, cant stand seeing them, and am nauseated having to read about them, we do need to know what is being said. Ignorance is not always bliss–especially when dealing with liberals/progressives. So, I must say, well done (no criticism towards ODB intended).
I must say, I admire your intestinal fortitude in being able to watch this garbage and report on it like you do. And your stomach lining must be made of miraculous stuff to handle all the acid produced just listening to those two wallow in their own stupidity.
This just in: Joe took an emergency blower in Mika’s dressing room bathroom, and Mika got mad that he blew it up and caused her to gag.
Seriously? C’mon man, that’s just crass.
This whole Trump/NoKo thing just goes to show that none of these experts have ever negotiated anything bigger than buying a house or automobile.
They have no idea how to negotiate.
An example: “The time for talk is over”
Translation: “you’re done getting freebies from us .. go talk to the Chinese or Russians, but remember they are tight wads”
He’s thinking, “Wonder how bad it would be if I asked for a divorce? Would anyone really blame me?”
This woman has become as great a joke as hillary clinton, minus the crimes.
Funny, listening to Brzezinski – or clinton – and it’s hard to tell if they are Americans or Valerie Jarrett.
Some liberal women just love to marry a pusillanimous man until that singular moment of clarity when they wake up, look over at their partner, and realize they have married a pu**y …
I think by now Joe knows what he’s getting. And he thinks the plusses outweigh the minuses.
He’s probably wrong—on this topic, men usually are—but he has the right to make his own mistakes.
Pathetic.
Trump lives in Mika and Joe’s head rent free 24/7.
