MS NOW’s “Morning Joe” co-hosts Willie Geist and Joe Scarborough couldn’t contain their laughter during a pun-filled roast of former MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell — stunning fellow co-host Mika Brzezinski when the jokes took a crass turn.
“Mr. Pillow had the stuffing knocked out of him last night, the feathers all over the floor,” Scarborough began his takedown of the Donald Trump-backed Minnesota gubernatorial candidate, who refused to concede after losing in the primary Tuesday to Minnesota House Speaker Lisa Demuth.
“And here he is talking about irregularities. Irregularities in a Republican primary, just like he talked about irregularities in the 2020 campaign,” he said in a nod to Lindell’s repeated false claims and lawsuits pushing that Trump won the 2020 presidential election.
Scarborough then latched on to the term “irregularities,” taking things in a new direction.
“The only irregularity here may be in his bowel movements,” Scarborough said as Brzezinski tried to interject and covered her face with her hand.
“I don’t know his personal business,” Scarborough continued, insisting that “it makes me uncomfortable!” as Geist laughed and Brzezinski begged him to cease talking about Lindell’s bowels.
“My God, Joe, stop!” she exclaimed, adding, “I can’t. It is so early in the morning.”

The MS NOW personality, however, went on his potty-mouthed ridicule of the Trump-backed candidate, joking that Lindell needs to “try some prunes.”
Geist joined in on the fun, quipping that “Mr. Pillow might be a little backed up from all the lawsuits.” Brzezinski laughed as Geist added, “We’re not doctors. We’re just speculating here” while Scarborough added a sound effect.
