Contributing sentiments towards policy:

63% : Biden is reportedly a big fan as may have been evident when he phoned in during a Morning Joe episode in early July to explain why he was resisting demands to withdraw from re-election after a disastrous debate with Trump, though he eventually caved and made way for Harris.
54% : But Brzezinski said she and Scarborough agreed to resume a dialogue with Trump during what was their first in-person meeting in seven years.
54% : ""This is a president who is not seeking re-election," Scarborough said of Trump, who served for four years beginning in 2017 and is set to be inaugurated again in January.
45% : That comment came after reports that Trump reportedly told members of the US House: "I suspect I won't be running again, unless you do something - unless you say, 'He's so good, we have to just figure it out.
43% : Anticipating condemnation from Democratic viewers and other liberals who were upset that voters returned Trump to the Oval Office in the 5 November election, Brzezinski said "why wouldn't" she and Scarborough - her husband - meet with him.
35% : But she said none of those issues proved as important as ones that sent "Trump back to the White House".
31% : The first of those was a personal phone call between Scarborough and Trump shortly after the incoming president survived an assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania, in July.
27% : Trump" who insisted the president-elect would not try to seek a third term in defiance of the US constitution.
15% : On the other hand, Morning Joe repeatedly drew ire from Trump during his first presidency, when he called Scarborough "crazy" and Brzezinski "dumb as a rock".Brzezinski on Monday said it was also her and Scarborough's second conversation with Trump since March 2020.
14% : One social media account claiming to have supported Kamala Harris in her defeat to Trump wrote: "In other words, Joe and Mika went to see the king at his castle, and they bent the knee."
