For months
Morning Joe has offered up a steady stream of apocalyptic condemnation of President Trump: his
mental health has been explicitly questioned and comments on Charlottesville were
blistered, with one panelist calling on his aides to resign en masse or be "forever tainted with the stench." Just last week, Mika Brzezinski was calling Trump "
unhinged," claiming she couldn't distinguish between Trump and Kim Jong Un.
All of which makes the praise for President Trump on today's show all the more remarkable. Joe Scarborough led off by observing that
"everywhere I've gone, people have been talking about Donald Trump's sort of shift." He praised the president's "even-keeled" tweets and the "steadier" organization inside the White House.
