Once again, hypocrisy from the right (maybe we should call them the wrong)
Thin-skinned Donald Trump, who personifies the "dish it out but can't take it" brand of bullying once again skipped the annual White House Correspondents Association dinner. But he had something to say about it afterward.
The WHCD was supposed to celebrate the 1st Amendment. Instead they celebrated bullying, vulgarity, and hate. They got all dressed up so they would look nicer when they had a hired gun savagely attack their guests. Do they really wonder why America has no respect for them? Sad!
Those who think that the tasteless classless bullying at the WHCD was an example of the 1st Amendment should never condemn bullying,bigoted comments, racist bile or hate speech. People should be free to speak but held accountable for it.
I'd like to ask Mr. Huckabee where his objections, i.e., consequence for Donald J. Trump for this comment, as reported by The Hill"
"Look at that face! Would anyone vote for that? Can you imagine that, the face of our next president?" Trump reportedly bellowed while watching his Republican presidential rival on the news. "I mean, she's a woman, and I'm not s'posedta say bad things, but really, folks, come on. Are we serious?”
Or this nugget:
Or this:
Huckabee himself is no stranger to random, racist remarks:
Let's examine exactly what Ms Wolf said regarding Ms Sanders:
And, of course, we have Sarah Huckabee Sanders. We're graced with Sarah's presence tonight. I have to say I'm a little star-struck.I love you as Aunt Lydia in “The Handmaid's Tale.”
Every time Sarah steps up to the podium, I get excited because I'm not really sure what we're going to get: you know, a press briefing, a bunch of lies or divided into softball teams. “It's shirts and skins, and this time, don't be such a little b----,Jim Acosta .”
I actually really like Sarah. I think she's very resourceful. Like, she burns facts, and then she uses the ash to create a perfect smoky eye. Like, maybe she's born with it; maybe it's lies.
It's probably lies.
And I'm never really sure what to call Sarah Huckabee Sanders. You know, is it Sarah Sanders? Is Sarah Huckabee Sanders? Is it Cousin Huckabee? Is it Auntie Huckabee Sanders? Like, what's Uncle Tom but for white women who disappoint other white women? Oh, I know: Aunt Coulter.
There has been much criticism of the remarks from comedian Michelle Wolf, who hosted. Mike Huckabee took offense to Ms Wolf's comments about White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders.While Washington, Michigan, was a big success, Washington, D.C., just didn’t work. Everyone is talking about the fact that the White House Correspondents Dinner was a very big, boring bust...the so-called comedian really “bombed.” @greggutfeld should host next year! @PeteHegseth— Donald J.

For Cinco de Mayo I will drink an entire jar of hot salsa and watch old Speedy Gonzales cartoons and speak Spanish all day. Happy CdMayo!— Gov. Mike Huckabee (@GovMikeHuckabee) May 5, 2017

She did not insult the appearance of Ms Sanders. She did suggest that Sanders uses burnt lies to achieve her smoky eye appearance. Not bullying. An accusation that she regularly lies from the podium where she conducts press briefings.
How regularly? Well, @SethAbramson published more than 4 dozen lies told by Ms Sanders during one press briefing in October of 2017.
16/ The Manafort/Gates indictments deal with crimes in a time "well before" the Trump campaign existed. FALSE. Both were ongoing in 2015.— Seth Abramson (@SethAbramson) October 30, 2017
Trump bullies everyone he disagrees with. The right has no business whining about snowflakes and bullying.
