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.”
