On Thursday’s “Deadline: White House,” MSNBC host and theoretical Republican Nicolle Wallace wondered aloud about how Melania and Ivanka Trump could possibly put up with the president’s “incredibly sexist, misogynistic views” day-to-day in the White House. Ultimately, Wallace suggested that the Trump women must be “dead inside” or “paid off” to maintain their support of him. The MSNBC host reached her tenuous conclusion together with guest panelist and Vanity Fairreporter Emily Jane Fox during a discussion about Rudy Giuliani’s recent comment that he does not respect Stormy Daniels because she “sells her body for sexual exploitation.”
Wallace and Fox began the segment in question by reacting to Giuliani’s comments and tying them in with President Trump’s purported hatred of women:
WALLACE: And I guess what struck me -- I will never play a moral policewoman here, but these are Donald Trump’s morals, because Donald Trump sought out Stormy Daniels for sex. So my reaction wasn’t, you know, wow -- it’s just, [Giuliani] represents a man who didn’t share his judgement that Stormy Daniels is worse than a criminal. He sought her out as a sexual partner.
FOX: Oh, he allegedly sought her out as a sexual partner, and I think…
WALLACE: [interrupting]: And he allegedly sought out Playboy playmate Karen McDougal. I mean, so Ruby Giuliani, and – no opinion on his personal conduct – but he is the president’s lawyer and the president didn’t have these views about women who were porn stars, or Playboy playmates.
FOX: Sure, but the President has incredibly sexist, misogynistic views about how he treats women in general. We’ve heard the way that he talks about women, calling them dogs and pigs, talking about grabbing them by their genitals. So he may not have shared these views about these specific women, but the way that the president talks about women and behaves towards women, it’s not so out of line with what Rudy Giuliani said. And what he said about Stormy Daniels was disgusting, it gave me a pit in my stomach from the second I woke up this morning. But, my first reaction was – this is so disrespectful to the First Lady.
At this point, Wallace jumped in and speculated about how it would be possible for Melania and Ivanka Trump to put up with both Giuliani and the president’s joint misogyny [emphasis mine]:
“Well, let me ask you, I mean -- you know more about the Trump women, the Trump family, than anyone. What do they do on a day like today?Are they just the most stoic human beings? Are they numb? Are they dead inside? Are they paid off? I mean, what’s their deal?”
Fox immediately responded in the affirmative to Wallace’s rhetorical questions about Melania and Ivanka before going on to accuse the Trump women of having a distorted and false image of the president [emphasis mine]:
FOX: Yes, yes, and yes, but I think they do not see President Trump the way that all of us see President Trump. They have such a distorted image of who he is that they don’t have the kind of reaction that we do.It’s almost some sort of trick…
WALLACE: [interrupting] But they’re mothers now. I mean, what kind of -- I mean, and they seem to be raising nice kids. I mean, what do -- how do they wall it off?
FOX: You are looking at this as a rational person, but I have written this a million times – Ivanka Trump is the most masterful compartmentalizer that America has maybe ever seen. And so her ability to separate something like this out from then going and sitting in the West Wing and doing her job or going and visiting her father in the Oval Office, she’s able to separate those things in a way that you and I probably can’t understand.
Indeed, I have doubts myself about whether liberal journos can truly understand Donald Trump better than his own close family members, but MSNBC might just have a magic crystal ball to plumb the depths of the president’s soul. The news network’s hosts certainly seem to think that they possess such an object, so you never know.
Feel free to check out the brief MSNBC segment for yourself at this link.
Calling these traitors Republicans is like referring toto Bennedict Arnold as an American warrior.
Their treason and duplicity have far surpassed anything in their favour.
Not like Hillary who was very active in denigrating the women Bill was raping.
The LSD in MSLSD is not a joke.
Typical Manhattan termagants.
Yes, that kind of feeling you get when your precious global order is breathing its death rattle - you know some of us are elated that this evil spirit is passing on to another world.
where did an ignorant deplorable learn to use a word like that? Spot on!
she endorsed Hillary—an idiot and a traitor....
So She and Mueller and Comey are “”””Republicans””””.
What is the definition if they (and McCain and Flake) are called that, too?
Not a club I want to join. Would have to clean off my shoe bottoms and go home and take a shower.
Nicolle Wallace is "dead inside," and she is "paid off" to slander Trump and his allies.
The liberal news channels have gotten totally unhinged. And the people that watch them are ridiculous. I have had to listen to people who spend their nights watching this crap. They are so emotional that argument it a waste of time. Its like Trump sprang out of nowhere and did not have a life in Manhattan. That the Clintons went to his wedding and Oprah had him on as a favorite guest because they enjoy the company of NAZI KKK women hating men.
The truth is that The Donald is exactly as he has always been. He is doing everything he said he would do when he ran. And the only new thing we have learned is that the press is not quietly filled with democrat leaning people. But they are activists, using their position to help the DNC every chance they get and with no scruples whatsoever. We suspected it to be true, but now we know it to be true.
And we learned that the Midwest and rust belt are tired of Washington.
Just remember Nicole made not a peep about Hillary possibly being dead inside when she stood side by side with old Bill.
Easy there Tiger.
You wouldn’t want to assault her and get crap on your hands.
Wallace’s parents both voted for Trump. She admits they can no longer discuss politics. It’s heart warming to hear.
‘Those look fake. (her teeth)’
you want to see some bad looking fake teeth, you oughta see the monstrosity I have...
MSNBC and CNN reporters, pundits and journalists... Pffffttt...
Remember, these are the same people, who for years, put up with the likes of Harvey Weinstein, Matt Lauer, Bill Clinton, Charlie Rose, Al Franken, Kevin Spacey, Algore, Eliot Spitzer, Mark Halperin, Anthony Weiner, Eric Schneiderman , etc., etc., etc.
A couple of 2s sniping about a couple of 10+’s.
‘where did an ignorant deplorable learn to use a word like that?’
‘A termagant wife may ... in some respects, be considered a tolerable blessing, and if so, Rip Van Winkle was thrice blessed.’
The only reason my family voted for McCain was She was on the Ticket and I hoped he would vapor lock soon after taking office
Here’s another one for the “ladies”:
Tistamee-tah-peh!
I hate fake ones they do look fake
