Conservative Columnist Calls Trump a ‘Sick Human Being’ for Hateful Attack: ‘He Clearly Wants to Inflict Pain’

No matter how many offensive things President Donald Trump says, most people in the right-wing media are afraid to call him out — and true to form, they remained silent when Trump attacked and defamed the late Michigan Rep. John D. Dingell during a December 18 MAGA rally in Battle Creek, Michigan and implied that he was in hell. But Kathleen Parker is one conservative journalist who isn’t giving Trump a pass: in a scathing Washington Post column, she points to the Dingell controversy as a prime example of how low Trump can sink.

“No news here, but the president of the United States is a sick human being — charitably speaking,” Parker asserts. “His recent behavior at a campaign rally in Michigan on the very night of his impeachment was several notches below even his usual flair for giving offense.”

Implying that Dingell was in hell was Trump’s way of taking a cheap shot at the late Democratic congressman’s widow, Rep. Debbie Dingell, who voted to impeach him. John Dingell, who was 92 when he died on February 7, 2019, was the longest-serving congressman in U.S. history: he entered the U.S. House of Representatives via Michigan in 1955 and remained until January 2015.

Although right-wing politically, Parker is far from a knee-jerk Republican Party hack along the lines of Rush Limbaugh or Sean Hannity — and over the years, she has taken some positions that strayed from Fox News/AM talk radio orthodoxy. Parker, for example, declared that nominating Sarah Palin as Sen. John McCain’s running mate in the 2008 presidential election was a colossal blunder for the Republican Party. And when Barack Obama was president, she viewed him as a centrist rather than a staunch liberal.

Trump’s attack on John Dingell, Parker writes, was motivated by a desire for “revenge.” Parker explains, “Trump no doubt expected Debbie Dingell to reward his beneficence by voting ‘no’ on impeachment, which didn’t happen. He was angry. But Trump’s is no ordinary anger. When he lashes out, he goes for the kill. He clearly wants to inflict pain and then spit on his prey’s grave.”

1. I've known Alex Henderson for twenty years

Interesting guy!

[vlyons]

2. Gee, and it only took 3 years to come to that conclusion.

8. And the loss of 6 innocent children

Never forget. How many families who are celebrating Christmas at their childs or other relative's gravesite to this Nazi-fried politics.
Perhaps the Star at the top of MAGAt's christmas tree should be replaced by a globe with the image of Stephen Miller's angry scowl.

18. Nope. Kathleen Parker has been quite vocal in her criticism of Trump

at least since 2015, and made clear that she could not vote for him in 2016.

10/4/16:
..."Parker stated that she felt, “a moral imperative” to prevent the election of Trump.

“He is, to me, a dangerous person, primarily because the man has no self-control," she said. “I’ve never known anyone [else] who was intentionally cruel."
......
“I know [Trump’s] type. Women are objects to him,” she said. “He likes to own women. He likes to control women. Women can get under his skin so easily — he can’t stand it. It takes a real man to understand that women are perfect.”

As to why some women continue to support Trump, Parker said, “There’s a simple answer: People are crazy.”
.......
She praised Clinton's knowledge and experience in comparison to her opponent, and said she believed Clinton’s election would have positive outcomes. "...(more)

3. I wonder how many people will spit on rump's grave when he finally dies. I suspect that...

the ground will be wet all of the time from all of the spit, and they'll have to hide his grave...serves him right...

[juxtaposed]

4. not spit but, piss

[SWBTATTReg]

5. That too! Good catch, I didn't think of this! Take care!

[Paladin]

7. I've been thinking of it, plenty.

I suspect I have a lot of company.

[fierywoman]

11. There will be lots of dog walkers in that cemetery.

[manhattan123]

12. They can get his Russian hookers to do the job

[Kaiserguy]

14. How to make millions,

selling tickets to people for the chance to piss on his grave.

[MyOwnPeace]

6. We could make.........

quite a list of what could be used to show our "honor and respect" to that vile, evil, sick person. I would suspect that even HIS EPA, decimated as it is, would have to declare his grave site a toxic waste dump.

(well, that should be quite obvious from the moment his dead, wretched body is placed there!)

[lambchopp59]

9. The families who have suffered losses, celebrating Christmas this year at gravesite

Will join us in sending the trickster jinn back to hell from which it emerged.

[Demovictory9]

10. he is very sick

[erronis]

13. May his passing be in the manner of his predecessor, Mussolini

Wishing only the best for their Malevolent Malefactor. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Benito_Mussolini#Execution

15. I keep coming back to this

There was a very short post here a few days ago observing that trumps soul is so dark it doesn’t cast a shadow. Can’t recall who posted, but please do chime in and take credit. I find myself responding to tweets like the one about Dingel, and just yesterday the one about attacking liberal relatives during holiday get-together, by observing that he has no soul. After years of this, I really believe that he is evil. Sure, psychologically and psychiatrically damaged. But more than that. He is evil.

16. "Conservative columnist" pretty much screams sick human being.

[maxrandb]

17. Ya' Know...eff her

She's the fucking Susan Collins of right wing news and editorial.

Don't fall for this "conservative with a conscious bullshit"

Remember "Compassionate Conservatism"?

They use terms like that to serve as anistesia as they rip all your teeth out.

Call me when she fights for good progressive policies and politicians.

[Mars and Minerva]

19. Imagine the millions of people who will, literally, spit on Trump's grave someday! nt

[gratuitous]

20. I realize the Cletus safaris are the preferred media narrative

Go out to rural diners and find the most hidebound conservatives a reporter can find, and ask them just how much they love them some President Trump. Makes for good copy and presents the finest in conservative thought. The stories practically write themselves! Win-win.

But how about chatting with some conservatives who aren't hopelessly, helplessly in love with President Trump what they think of his administration? Maybe even venture into some urban settings and ask a few people of color how they feel about the administration? After all, more people voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016 than voted for Donald Trump. Why not get their views on Trump? Or is that story too tough to write?
