President Donald Trump is not a fan of MSNBC’s Morning Joe co-host Joe Scarborough.

In a Monday morning tweet, the president suggested the network’s parent company Comcast, which he called “Concast,” should “open up a long overdue Florida Cold Case” involving Scarborough.

Calling Scarborough “psycho” and then “nuts,” Trump also called out his co-host Mika Brzezinski as “Crazy Mika.” 

"I know him and Crazy Mika well, used them beautifully in the last Election, dumped them nicely, and will state on the record that he is 'nuts,'" Trump said. 

The cold case Trump referenced involves the death of Lori Klausutis. Klausutis worked as an intern in Scarborough’s district office when he was still serving as U.S. Congressman for Florida’s 1st Congressional district. An autopsy concluded that her death happened after heart problems caused her to fall and hit her head on a desk in 2001.

He called out the show for having “bad ratings!” and ended his tweet with #OPENJOECOLDCASE. 

This isn’t the first time the president has suggested foul play in the Klausutis case. 

The president tweeted a similar message in Nov. 2017 asking if NBC would fire Scarborough based on an “unsolved mystery” in Florida, AP Fact Check reports. He also called for the network to “Investigate!” the case.
