Sean Hannity took to Twitter to mock MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough after the “Morning Joe” co-host criticized Trump advisor Stephen Miller.

“Joe why don’t you focus on getting your horrific ratings up,” the Fox News host tweeted late Sunday. “They totally suck. And I’ll take Steve Miller on my team over u any day.”

Miller appeared on numerous talk shows on Sunday to defend Trump’s travel ban and criticize the court that ruled against it. Scarborough, who has had a bizarre on-again, off-again relationship with Trump throughout the last two years, mocked Miller’s performance on Twitter before Hannity chimed in.

In the month of January, “Hannity” averaged 3.1 million viewers while “Morning Joe” averaged 625,000. But Hannity’s late-night tweets didn’t impact the content of “Morning Joe” on Monday, as Scarborough bashed Miller even further.

After playing a clip of Miller’s visit to ABC’s “This Week,” both hosts appeared dumbfounded by Miller’s remarks that the power of the president should not be questioned. “That’s not even funny,” Mika Brzezinski said. “Oh my god,” Scarborough gasped.

“[Trump’s decisions] will be questioned my young, little Miller,” he added. “They will be questioned by the Court. It’s called judicial review. Alexander Hamilton and James Madison wrote about it in the Federalist Papers. It was enshrined in Madison’s Constitution. It was enshrined in Madison’s Constitution.”

Scarborough continued: “You really need to go back and read the Constitution and seriously, the White House has got to stop embarrassing themselves by putting this guy on.”

Miller appeared on numerous talk shows on Sunday to defend Trump’s travel ban and criticize the court that ruled against it. Scarborough, who has had a bizarre on-again, off-again relationship with Trump throughout the last two years, said, “That was the worst performance out of anybody… that was horrendous.”
