SHOCK: MSNBC’s Trump Derangement Syndrome-Afflicted Morning Joe Beats Out Fox and Friends in Average TV Ratings for First Time Ever
Fox has not been doing too hot since Election Day.

MSNBC’s Morning Joe, hosted by the former Trump-loving and current Trump-hating power couple Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski, has beaten Fox and Friends in average weekly ratings for the first time ever.
The ratings come from TVNewser (paywall) and the news was first tweeted by @TVNewsHQ. Last week Morning Joe averaged 1.6 million viewers while Fox and Friends averaged 1.4 million. It is the first time that Morning Joe has earned the distinction of number one cable news morning show—as well as the first time since 2001 that any MSNBC morning show finished a week at number one.

Morning Joe has likely had some individual days where they beat out Fox and Friends, but never a given week until last week.
Fox News has been falling off a cliff since Election Day. In just one of many recent incidents, the network cut off White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany while she was addressing voter fraud allegations. Anchor Neil Cavuto jumped in and said: “Whoa, whoa, whoa. I just think we have to be very clear. She’s charging the other side as welcoming fraud and illegal voting, unless she has more details to back that up, I can’t in good countenance continue to show you this.”

Immigration
Mara Elvira Salazar is No Friend of America First Nationalism
Republican leaders would be wise to ignore all of her political advice.

If there’s one Republican leader that young activists should never listen to, it’s Florida Congresswoman Maria Elvira Salazar.
Salazar, who is a Cuban American, has been an outspoken advocate of loosening U.S. immigration laws. In fact, she even confronted known immigration hawk and key Trump adviser Stephen Miller at a Republican Study Committee weekly lunch on February 24, 2021. She specifically criticized Trump’s immigration message and demanded that the GOP be more inclusive in its outreach.
“I told him [Miller] that the GOP needs to attract the browns,” stated Salazar. “We, for the last 30 years since Ronald Reagan, have not sent the right message to the browns,” she continued. “Reagan was the last guy who gave a path to citizenship to 3 million people … 35 years ago. It’s time for us to do the same thing that Reagan did.”
Salazar doubled down on her pro-immigration message when she went on Larry Kudlow’s show on March 2 and declared that former President Donald Trump would have done better with Hispanics by advocating for looser immigration. Journalist Ryan Girdusky noted how some of Trump’s advisers were already pushing for amnesty lite policies:
.@RepMariaSalazar went on Larry Kudlow’s show and said Trump would have done better with Hispanics if he had John McCain’s position on immigration. Incredibly stupid

She said Trump's fault was he didn't offer full legality towards all 20 million illegal aliens and increase legal immigration.
Larry then noted that he, Jared, and Brooke Rollins were working on a plan like that (something Jared's people denied)

Girdusky added that Salazar was rather unhinged in her criticism of Miller’s vision for the GOP:
Throughout her anger filled rant, which was full of inaccuracies, she repeatedly took jabs at Stephen Miller who addressed the @RepublicanStudy last week, during which she was totally unhinged, came into the meeting and started screaming at him. She's not even a member of RSC

Salazar made a lot of noise about the Hispanic vote, despite ignoring how Trump improved his Hispanic numbers between 2016 and his re-election bid in 2020 from 28% to 32%. And he did so without much Hispandering or campaigning on passing amnesty.
The unsavory fact that the GOP consultant class and the likes of Salazar refuse to acknowledge is that the Black Lives Matter unrest alone likely pushed significant segments of the Hispanic population into the Democrats’ arms. BLM radicalism alienated Americans of all backgrounds., but Hispanics were not having any of this kind of ruckus. Even Hispanic Democrats, of all groups, largely supported strong military action during the riots.
In reality, Hispanic support for Trump is largely based on his bluster and political bluntness, which many minority groups find comfort in.
However, Republicans like Salazar gets it all wrong by thinking that expanding immigration both legal and illegal is a key to the Republican Party success. The Republican Party will have to concede that they can make gains with Hispanics at the margins but they cannot expect to win the majority of the Hispanic vote due to Hispanics’ propensity to support many causes ranging from gun control to more government involvement in healthcare. Data from the Pew Research Center demonstrates these beliefs among Hispanics. Nevertheless, there are some avenues for outreach with this demographic but they must be done right.
The key for Republican success is the white working class voters, which played a crucial role in putting Trump over the top in the Midwest back in 2016. These voters are not the most reliable in terms of turnout, but they comprise a vast segment of the American electorate. Any candidate who can activate them could potentially build a hegemonic electoral coalition for years to come. The goal for a sane Republican campaign is to maximize turnout and support among the WWC.
Such inroads with WWC voters are more important than meeting a diversity quota the likes of Salazar and naive Republican strategists would like the party to pursue. Any nationalist campaign worth its salt would be promoting the following: Infrastructure projects targeting the Midwest, the restriction of both illegal and legal immigration, and re-shoring programs to bring jobs back.
On the other hand, following Salazar’s program is the way that the GOP will become irrelevant and alienate many WWC voters who are already on the fence with regards to the Republican Party. These voters are not going to gravitate towards Republicans just because of the “R” next to their name. They still must be catered to and pushing for amnesty is one way to turn working class voters off.
Under Salazar’s watch, the GOP will simply be going back to the politically correct ways of the Bush administration. To tap into the sleeping giants that is the WWC, Republican leaders should ignore everything Salazar has to say and get fully behind nationalist policies such as immigration restriction, infrastructure development, and re-shoring.
