I don't know if stage-4 Trump Derangement Syndrome-riddled MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace is among the TDS Starting Five, but I do know that if she's not, she's gotta be the first to come off the bench. I mean, the former pretend Republican regularly spews venom at Donald Trump like nobody's business.
Such was the case on Thursday's episode of "Dateline: White House" when Wallace absurdly claimed that her cartoon network doesn't "amplify" the former president's "most dangerous comments," only to have her equally TDS-riddled guest promptly compare Trump to Adolf Hitler.
Hypocrisy, much? You can't make this stuff up.
Here's Wallace at the beginning of her stand-up comedy routine:
On this program, we try our hardest not to ever amplify [Trump's] most dangerous comments. But we're going to play them for you here today right now because we believe you should hear the comments from the man himself.
Ms. Wallace of course didn't claim that MSNBC doesn't amplify her most dangerous comments, or those of her Trump-loathing MSNBC comrades, including racist host extraordinaire Joy Reid.
Anyway, Wallace then played an innocuous clip of Trump referencing Biden's illegal alien invasion before pretending to be offended — as if she and her cohorts didn't regularly make far worse comments about the former president of the United States — as she launched into a faux dramatic diatribe.
It's poisoning the blood of our country. [Sighs] So much to say, right? But what makes these comments even more dangerous is the fact that Trump's rhetoric and his ideas, we know by now what happens to them. They seep into the fabric of a large swath of our country, largely people who identify as Republicans.
[...]
Deeply dangerous, racist attacks on migrants by an ex-president with a history of fomenting violence in America is where we start today.
The total lack of self-awareness of condescending leftists like Wallace is damn near breathtaking.
Wallace then dragged out Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO and national director of the Anti-Defamation League, to kick up the rhetoric of an already ridiculous segment.
Jonathan. I want to start with you. I want to read you something that our friends over at Matto blog have reported. This is from Laura Barrón-López, the White House correspondent for PBS, who told her viewers last night, "I checked with a historian, Ruth Ben-Ghiat, and she said that the language that he's using echoes language used in Nazi propaganda by Adolf Hitler, when Adolf Hitler actually said that Jewish people and migrants were, quote, causing a blood poisoning of Germany.
Not only did Greenblatt agree, he took it a hypocritical step further:
Well -- in some ways it feels like, there we go again, Nicolle. I mean, to be frank, I don't know how much Donald Trump is a student of history, or if he even reads books, and what's on his nightstand. But I do know, as the reporter said last night on PBS News Hour, that the language that he used in that interview is the same, or intended to evoke, the kind of language that's been used by many who hold vicious anti-immigrant, racist, antisemitic views, like Hitler!
And there it is.
The Bottom Line
Again, these people, and other leftists like them, are laughably unaware of the hypocrisy of the bile they regularly spew, not only against Trump but also against conservative positions on everything from opposition to the Biden Border Crisis to Critical Race Theory to so-called "gender-affirming care" — the irreversible mutilation of the bodies of minors — and beyond.
And the hell of it is they have no shame — but they sure as hell think you should.
