When White House aides appear on MSNBC's "Morning Joe," they're often booked between 7 and 7:40 a.m. ET. That's so they'll reach one crucial and loyal viewer: President Biden.
Why it matters: Biden's years-long love of MSNBC's staple morning show affects how the White House runs — and who Biden listens to. ,p> Zoom in: The president often calls co-host Joe Scarborough — a former Republican congressman who's now a harsh critic of Donald Trump — to get Scarborough's take on issues and sometimes vent about media coverage, according to people familiar with the relationship. ,p> During the day, Biden has long asked his staff whether they saw a story, a poll, or a segment that had been on the show.

Regardless. It is actually good to see that Biden actually has somebody he listens to! At least now we know who is running the country.
/sarchasm. That gaping hole between a liberal and the real world.
Didn’t they rip into Trump for watching Fox News in the Oval Office? At least most of the Fox people aren’t certifiable.
