If you think Wolf was hitting below the belt about Sanders' make-up.....

For those who say making fun of Sanders' make-up is hitting below the belt, well maybe it is, but then how come the goddamn President could get away about making fun of Ted Cruz's wife's face??! I think that may have been before tRUMP was actually President, so for anyone that wants to use that defense and say, "That was before tRUMP was President" well, I say to them, "Well, Michelle Wolf isn't the President either!!"

The fact is that she didn't make fun of her makeup. She actually complimented SHS's makeup. Squinch Apr 2018 #4

with his relationship with his daughters, looking at the pictures, they just scream dysfunctional (to me, anyway)

either morally or in what they should be able to "get away with." If that comparison wasn't a false equivalency, there'd be no argument. They would both be deplorable.

The real comparison is that she was inveighing against evil, while he's a purveyor.

She called it the "perfect smoky eye." She made fun of SHS's LIES. That's what we want them to do!

This isn't a matter of "they do it so we can too." Wolf never did it.

about whomever they please. They name-call, denigrate, curse, demean, and threaten...when called on it or they are denigrated, they cry to mommy over behaviors they engage in every single day with impunity.
