MSNBC hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski hit back at President Donald Trump this morning, calling him a liar and questioning his mental health, after their former friend claimed the duo relentlessly pursued him at Palm Beach property while Mika was recovering from a facelift. 'We are both certain that the man is not mentally equipped to continue watching our show, “Morning Joe," they said in a Washington Post op-ed on Friday morning.
According to their account in the Post, Trump invited them to Mar-a-Lago for dinner. When Brzezinski didn't show, he asked them back the next night on, New Year's Eve. They went - but did not attend the party he was having that night, they maintained. 'Mr. Trump also claims that Mika was “bleeding badly from a face-lift.”
That is also a lie,' the op-ed says. While Brzezinski 'never had a face-lift' they admit that she did 'have a little skin under her chin tweaked, but this was hardly a state secret'
They also claimed on the show, and in the Post, that senior Trump officials begged them to call the president and apologize for their coverage or have a nasty piece on them run in a tabloid that's owned and operated by the president's friend. Trump responded with outrage on Twitter: 'Watched low rated @Morning Joe for first time in long time. FAKE NEWS. He called me to stop a National Enquirer article. I said no! Bad show.'
