Once again, a hostile liberal -- this time Chris Hayes, host of the MSNBC weeknight program All In -- has shown that he is willing to go to any length to diminish President-elect Donald Trump and his family before the Republican officially moves into the White House on January 20.
On Wednesday, the Politico website's Julia Ioffe complained about the fact that one of Trump's daughters -- Ivanka -- will set up an office in the White House that is usually reserved for the first lady, which led Ioffe to post on Twitter: “Either Trump is f***ing his daughter or he's shirking nepotism laws. Which is worse?”
The reason given for the family's departure from tradition was that Trump's wife, Melania, will continue living in New York City until their son, Barron, completes his coursework in a nearby school next year.
In an article on the Twitchy.com website just hours later, Lori Ziganto noted that it didn't take long for the political website to fire Ioffe, whose post the reporter called “beyond foul” and led to Ioffe doing some “faux apologizing” on Twitter.
In her post, the reporter stated:
It was a tasteless, offensive tweet that I regret and have deleted. I am truly and deeply sorry. It won't happen again.
All that said, I do regret my phrasing and apologize for it. It was a crass joke that I genuinely regret.
“Oh, really; the phrasing?” Ziganto shot back. “Should you have used 'banging' instead then? Is that it? All you regret is being fired.”
“One thing that 2016 has sure taught us: The Left is going above and beyond in exposing just how twisted fringe they are,” she continued. “And when they are bitter, the nasty reaches epic levels.”
This tweet is "an obvious violation of Politico standards,” reporter Alex Pfeiffer stated before announcing: “Julia Ioffe is no longer with the publication.”
Enter MSNBC anchor Christopher Hayes, “who is currently literally defending Ioffe. Perhaps not surprising, as he has also defended bombing attempts because the explosives are 'not guns.' So sanity ain't his strong suit.”
Hayes first posted that he was “just now seeing the @juliaioffe news. Are you telling me after the last 18 months we're gonna get the vapors because of a single tweet !?!”
“Are you KIDDING me?” Ziganto asked in response. “You have the utter audacity to talk about vapors, Mr. Fainting Couch extraordinaire?”
“The press loses its collective mind (I think they do just share ONE) over every single Trump tweet. Every. Time,” she added. “Pearls are clutched, histrionics are rampant, and fainting couches have huge arse-shaped divots in them now.”
“Further, how on earth can you in good conscience defend Ms. Ioffe’s reprehensible statement?” Ziganto asked. “Oh, that’s right. Conscience is hard.”
Hayes then stated: “I mean, I've said it once, I've said it 100 times: Take @juliaioffe seriously but not literally.”
“Hardy-har-har,” the Twitchy reporter replied. “Boy, you are sick. She both literally and seriously mentioned incest. INCEST. That’s no joke, buddy.”
“But honestly,” the MSNBC host noted, “it almost feels like the only person in America who will never lose his job over an offensive tweet is Donald Trump.”
“Of course,” Ziganto asserted. “There we go: Because of TRUUUUUUMMMPP. Man, you guys are really getting old. It was funny at first: Tear-filled porn, really. But now? It’s just pathetic. And becoming sickening.”
Todd Wilder chimed in by stating he feels: “That was a horrible thing to say, and I'm no Trump fan.”
“It was a horrible thing to say,” Hayes responded, “but I generally think people shouldn't be fired over tweets. I've said this a bunch.”
Ziganto then offered her opinion on the matter: “Perhaps she should be fired because she let it clearly be known that she not only has a bias against President-elect Trump, but that she cannot even control it. At all.”
“Imagine a journalist saying Obama was sleeping with one of his daughters,” @back_ttys remarked. That ”would be a year-long hissy fit.”
Regarding Ioffe's future, poster Gabriel Malor said her firing was an “easy call” since “The Atlantic announced her hiring last week.”
Meanwhile, @baldingschemer called her firing “the equivalent of going home early on your last day of work.”
Of course, all of this has happened long before Donald Trump takes the oath of office. Once that happens, things are just going to get even worse. Remember, “real news” outlets actually pay these people to "cover" politics.
PS: Two years ago, Chris Hayes did not seriously object to House aide Elizabeth Lauten resigning her job after a personal Facebook post knocking the Obama daughters for acting rudely at the Thanksgiving turkey pardon. It was a "worthwhile conversation" to debate whether she should have left her House job, but, actually that wasn't a "real issue."
HAYES: The Obama daughters appear to have had the indisputably, objectively correct reaction towards the entire turkey pardon tradition. In fact, there is perhaps no public event on the president's entire calendar more deserving of adolescent standoffishness than this bizarre, cringe-inducing ceremony.
So, let's focus on the real issue here: teenage contempt has never been more appropriate in any situation than when you are the president`s daughters watching him pardon a turkey named Cheese.
Julia seems to be just another common ignorant democrat slut.
How about Obama molesting his daughters?
Does it sound different to you Chris Hayes, in those cases? Still OK? Still amusing?
You creepy lowlife bottom feeders...
Maybe so but this is how the internet will remember her:
He does look like the type. And that little girl does look uncomfortable.
Bwaaaaahahahaaaa, just kidding. Just a funny joke to pass around the water cooler!
I’ve read these ugly remarks (and worse) about Trump, Ivanka and Melania (and even Barron) at several other websites. It makes me sick.
I hope the Trump family stays strong and doesn’t let this kind of vileness get to them. Unfortunately, it’s probably only going to get worse.
“hired by “The Atlantic””
The Atlantic is turning into a sewer of far-left wingnuts.
“I hope the Trump family stays strong and doesn’t let this kind of vileness get to them”
I think that we will see Trump hold them accountable - sue their pants off, and prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law. Hurt them. Really hurt them.
He is a counter-puncher, and is litigious. Melania is suing some hack right now, who threw out a slur in the media during the election that she had been a prostitute. No evidence whatsoever, just throwing turds on the wall.
Trump is a counter-puncher, and about to become the most powerful man in the world.
I don’t think that these privileged snowflakes are prepared for an honest to goodness ass-kicking - they are used to bullying defenseless people at a distance. I look forward to the shock and tears of the first few examples that he makes. I recommend some metro prison time with a bunch of gang-bangers - none of those clean, fancy federal prisons...
Turning ?
“How about Obama molesting his daughters?”
Now, if Obama had a son...
Nice looking? I think the adjective I’m getting is “insufferable.” I truly pity whatever beta male ends up subjected to her.
“This tweet is “an obvious violation of Politico standards,” reporter Alex Pfeiffer stated before announcing: “Julia Ioffe is no longer with the publication.””
No problemo; with a resume-enhancement like that, Julia will be hired by the New York Times within 24 hours.
Chris Hayes looks too much like Harold from The Red Green Show for me to take him seriously.
Fitting that she joins The Atlantic, home to demented Trump-hater David Frum (who was worthless in the Bush White House and has fallen very low since).
“Either Trump is fucking his daughter or he’s shirking nepotism laws. Which is worse?”
Keeping it classy, eh?
Curious about what “ nepotism law” says the First Lady can’t use a room in the WH for an office, and that Ivanka can’t sit in there coordinating WH activities while melania is still in NYC?
After all, the first mother- in- law Mrs Robinson lived in the WH fir 8 years traveled as a vip, and was just granted a $160,000 government pension for life for babysitting ( raising) barack and Michelle’s daughters
Would everyone quit repeating this false fake news about this pension BS. It is getting really old fast and makes us look stupid for repeating it over and over.
the “nasty women” sure are coming out of the woodwork
Please post valid link debunking it
How about you posting a link supporting it?
Here is mine.
