You are trying to set Date Object in your text field. Please try as follows

Example: 

String convertedString = convertDateToString(mClip.get(position).getJoin_date());
holder.mjoinDate.setText(convertedString);


private String convertDateToString (Date date) {
    //change according to your supported formate 
    DateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss");
    return dateFormat.format(date);
}
