Conservative media personality Megyn Kelly on Monday blasted “Morning Joe” hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski, calling them “grifters” for a trip to see President-elect Trump. On her Sirius XM show, Kelly noted comments from liberal pundit Keith Olbermann that he posted to the social platform X about the trip. In the comments, he said the MSNBC hosts “are confidence tricksters — and grifters.” “That’s exactly right,” Kelly said on the show highlighted by Mediaite. “They’re grifters. These two, yes, worked day and night to try to get Trump the nomination back in ’15,’16. They embarrassed themselves and sacrificed any pretense of journalistic ethics in doing it. It was true bootlicking.” Scarborough and Brzezinski said Monday that they made their way to Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate last week to speak with him about unifying the country and cooling political rhetoric. On “Morning Joe,” Brzezinski said it had been seven years since she and her co-host, who is also her husband, met with the president-elect. “In this meeting, he was upbeat, cheerful and he seemed interested in finding common ground on some of the most divisive issues,” Brzezinski said. Kelly said on her show that she “searched for a way to respond appropriately” to the “Morning Joe” Monday show, later adding that she believes she “found the perfect phrase: go f— yourselves.” “Go f— yourselves, you dishonest jokes of faux journalists,” she added. The Hill has reached out to the Trump transition team and MSNBC for comment.
