Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski, hosts of MSNBC’s Morning Joe, revealed that they met with Donald Trump for the first time in seven years.

Mika said,

β€œOn Friday, we were given the opportunity to do just that. Joe and I went to Mar-a-Lago to meet personally with President-elect Trump. It was the first time we have seen him in seven years.

…

What we did agree on was to restart communications.”

Mediaite reported:Β 

Morning Joe hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski opened Monday’s show with the stunning revelation that they had traveled to Florida to β€œmeet personally” with President-elect Donald Trump on Friday in a bid to β€œrestart communications” and set a β€œnew approach” to their coverage of his incoming administration.

The MSNBC hosts led coverage throughout the presidential campaign that was previously critical of Trump and his rhetoric and actions.

Brzezinski began on Monday by acknowledging that many viewers, spanning β€œregular citizens” and β€œpolitical leaders”, had expressed feeling β€œscared” and β€œdismayed” at Trump’s cabinet selections. As a result, she and Scarborough decided to reach out to Trump’s team to see if they could have β€œthe opportunity to speak with the President-elect, himself.”

She continued: β€œOn Friday, we were given the opportunity to do just that. Joe and I went to Mar-a-Lago to meet personally with President-elect Trump. It was the first time we have seen him in seven years.”

Scarborough, taking over the monologue to detail the conversation: β€œWe talked about a lot of issues, including abortion, mass deportation, threats of political retribution against political opponents and media outlets. We talked about that a good bit.”

MSNBC’s primetime viewership plunged after Donald Trump won.

New York Post reported:

MSNBC primetime viewership plunged 54% in the days after Donald Trump won the White House as the network’s audience tuned away from its left-leaning coverage, according to a report.

The Comcast-owned cable news channel β€” which drew a daily average of 1.1 million viewers throughout October – saw its audience shrink to a daily average of 736,000 on the Wednesday, Thursday and Friday after Election Day, according to Nielsen Media Research data reported by Fox News.

That amounted to a 31% drop following Trump’s decisive victory, in which he swept the popular vote and all seven key swing states. Meanwhile, Fox News ratings surged a whopping 61% during the same period, according to Nielsen data reported by Fox.

MSNBC was hit hardest during the primetime hours between 8 p.m. and 11 p.m.
