The husband of the Jet Blue passenger who was kicked off a flight Thursday morning seemingly confirmed on Twitter that the man set out to “harass” Ivanka Trump and her husband Jared Kushner.
Hunter College professor Matthew Lasner tweeted (and then deleted) the following.
banality
(“Banality of evil” is a term coined by journalist Hannah Arendt to refer to the cold, uncaring nature that allowed Nazi official Adolf Eichmann to oversee the Holocaust.)
Shortly afterward, Lasner then claimed that his husband actually only spoke in a “calm tone.” That tweet was also deleted.

TMZ reports that the Lasner’s husband was “out-of-control.” They also posted an image of Ivanka on the plane that came from Lasner’s Twitter, but appears to have been deleted as well.

In a statement, Jet Blue defended kicking the man off the flight and seemed to suggest that his tone may have not been all that “calm.”

“Hunter College professor Matthew Lasner...”
The college must fire him because he is too unstable to be in a classroom.

Ivanka flying Jet Blue coach???? And with no security?? LOL Not credible - FAKE.
I imagine he sounds like Jack from Will & Grace.
I’m sorry, but for a moment there I thought that it was a woman who had a “husband”. I forgot that we live in a space warp, and that now a “husband” can have a “husband”. Silly me, for living in the 20th century.
So the putz who harassed a woman and her children knows a lot more about schmeckels than most men.........
Faggies don’t smile, they smirk. And they hate straight women.
Oh, an hysterical fag? Typical! When they blow their stack, they go postal. He should have been arrested.
I saw reports of Secret Service on the plane - but apparently they left it to JetBlue staff to deal with the issue. There was no immediate physical threat - just a violation of JetBlue acceptable behavior guidelines.
All I want for Christmas is his two front teeth.
The use of the pronoun It would be helpful.
For some reason I have a hard time believing Ivanka and Jarred were on a commercial flight. Also wouldn’t she qualify for Secret Service protection?
The Trumps, I think, are cheapskates! But I doubt she’ll do that again. She can’t really.
Thanks, that's one word I coulda/shoulda chosen to make the thought/posting clearer.
I was wondering how probable it would be that she would fly commercial...doesn’t even look like first class, IMHO.
Maybe they flip(each other) for it.
Time to get out the branding irons tha say “Liberal geek tard.” A forehead tattoo of course.
Welcome.
Was thinking the same thing myself, you said it.. and then the word clicked in my head afterwards.
Been a long week here on my end.
I’m beat.
Went to twitter to see that Matt Lasner is being given a fantastic taste of his own medicine. He might even lose tenure over this? One could hope. Be careful, those in the protected classes (gay this time). We don’t think you are better than anyone else just because the elites find you useful little stooges to achieve their alinsky goals. Smiling at all the people of different walks of life giving him his ass on Twitter. Merry Christmas, happy Chanukah.
“I was wondering how probable it would be that she would fly commercial”
If I am DJT, I would be ticked off at Ivanka for putting herself and her children at risk by flying commercial. Everyone knows they’re rich, no reason not to take a private aircraft. Obviously, this in now way defends the idiot, liberal butt pirate for bothering her. The Secret Service should have thrown him out the door at 30,000 feet.
Either they forgot to use 'scare quotes' around 'husband', or they inadvertently left off the editor's (sic) markup.
Yeah, and then they'll be criticized for not flying commercial like "working people" do.
