Morning Joe co-host Mika Brzezinski was stunned on Thursday’s (March 26) show when she learned that Republicans had created a new award to bestow on President Donald Trump on Wednesday night (March 25).

The show opened with a clip of House Speaker Mike Johnson unveiling the first-ever America First Prize at the National Republican Congressional Committee’s annual fundraiser, saying they “want to honor [Trump] in some small way as a token of appreciation for his leadership.”
