Trump Mocks Mika Brzezinski; Says She Was ‘Bleeding Badly From a Face-Lift’
Crazy Mika, along with Psycho Joe” and describing a meeting with Ms. Brzezinski in which, he said, “she was bleeding badly from a face-lift.”
I heard poorly rated @Morning_Joe speaks badly of me (don’t watch anymore).

President Trump faced a swift and bipartisan backlash on Thursday after he assailed the television host Mika Brzezinski in unusually personal
and crude terms, the latest of a string of escalating attacks by the president on the national news media.
President, your tweet was beneath the office and represents what is wrong with American politics, not the greatness of America.”
The president has fumed for weeks about his coverage on “Morning Joe,” where Mr. Scarborough
and Ms. Brzezinski have been increasingly blistering in their commentary about the Trump administration.
Mr. Trump is famed for his online provocations, but the coarseness of his remark about Ms. Brzezinski — coming from a president who has faced criticism
for his attitudes toward women — drew immediate denunciations in the political world, including from prominent members of his own party.
Mr. Scarborough and Ms. Brzezinski visited Mr. Trump’s Florida estate, Mar-a-Lago, this past New Year’s.
In a statement, MSNBC said, “It’s a sad day for America when the president spends his time bullying, lying
and spewing petty personal attacks instead of doing his job.”
Mr. Trump’s deputy press secretary, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, defended Mr. Trump’s tweets in an interview on Fox News.
