Trump Threatens to Expose Joe Scarborough’s ‘Real Story’
Takes to Twitter to allege Joe and Mika “romance.”

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump took to Twitter on Monday morning to attack MSNBC’s Morning Joe hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski. The real-estate mogul and onetime “friend” of the political talk-show stars threatened to expose Scarborough’s alleged “long-time” relationship with “insecure” Brzezinski, saying that after everything “calms down” he’ll tell the “real story.” Earlier this summer, Brzezinski finalized her divorce from ex-husband James Hoffer, a WABC reporter, further fueling speculation that she would go public with an alleged relationship with Scarborough. Trump’s tweets seemingly came in response to a Monday morning segment in which Brzezinski mocked his recent Virginia speech as “the most impolite delivery I’ve ever seen,” at one point joking that he was belting “like he’s had a lot to drink.”
Some day, when things calm down, I'll tell the real story of @JoeNBC and his very insecure long-time girlfriend, @morningmika. Two clowns!

Tried watching low-rated @Morning_Joe this morning, unwatchable! @morningmika is off the wall, a neurotic and not very bright mess!
