Leftists Losing Their Sh*t Over Trump Tweets [VIDEO]
Both the Left and Right are losing their s**t over President Trump’s tweet.
In them, President Trump called Morning Joe Scarborough “Psycho Joe,” and Mika Brzezinski “Low I.Q. Crazy Mika.”
I heard poorly rated @Morning_Joe speaks badly of me (don't watch anymore). Then how come low I.Q. Crazy Mika, along with Psycho Joe, came..

The president then too gave a jab at Brzezinski’s facelift.
…to Mar-a-Lago 3 nights in a row around New Year's Eve, and insisted on joining me. She was bleeding badly from a face-lift. I said no!

Grant you, These are not exactly presidential tweets. However, like the kerfuffles over President Trump’s other questionable tweets, this too shall pass.
Ironically, the mainstream media outlets – MSNBC, NY Times, Huffington Post, all the rest who shout outrage from the rooftops absolutely dig this.
They feast as they once again (yawn) paint President Trump as a misogynistic, petty, thin-skinned bully. In fact, happy couple Brzezinski and Scarborough are so offended and morally outraged that, according to the NY Post, they’re postponing their 4th of July vacation plans by a day so they can sling some “bad blood” President Trump’s way.
Stay classy.
CNN actually issues a trigger warning in discussing the tweets:
You don’t have to defend President Trump’s tweets to note that none of these left-wing media people appear to see the irony – or, more accurately, the raging hypocrisy – in any of this faux outrage. For Pete’s sake, who are they kidding? Are they really pretending to be taking some “high road” on this?
We already know that it was okay for Kathy Griffin to display a severed head and Stephen Colbert to make gay jokes about President Trump and Putin. So that line, evidently, is clearly shiftable.
But, let’s take a gander at some of the mainstream media headlines since the election.
Rolling Stone: “Why Trump is Not Mentally Fit to be President.”
The New York Times: “Is it Time to Call Trump Mentally Ill?”
Vanity Fair: “Is Donald Trump Actually a Narcissist? Therapists Weigh In!” (And, for the record, seems to me that that coveted “high road” kinda crumbles when random therapists who’ve never personally evaluated President Trump – or even been in the same room with him – are encouraged to issue a diagnosis about his mental state.)
TopBuzz (CNN Commentators): “Trump couldn’t find the high road with GPS and a flashlight.”
As reported by the Washington Times,
. . . [A] Media Research Center analysis in March found 88 percent of broadcast news was hostile toward the president, while an Investor’s Business Daily poll said that 55 percent of the public had grown ‘weary from the media’s persistently negative coverage of President Trump.’ Another 54 percent said the media ‘has assumed the role of the opposition party, constantly opposing the president and his policies at every turn.’
The benchmark shouldn’t be name-calling and mean-spirited Tweets from anyone. Further, it also shouldn’t be 88% negative news coverage – but most of us, without defending anything, can point to the raging, rampant hypocrisy these left-wing media trolls roll out when they think they’ve got a live one. We hear the drumbeat, over and over, about President Trump being mentally unhinged, unfit to be president, blah blah blah. And then we watch the left-wing media’s heads explode over a misguided tweet that they claim “crossed every line.”
I’m not real sure why Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough would postpone their vacation just to get their mugs on-air to get even with Trump for his hit tweets. However, the road to the White House is paved with the bones of defunct media talking heads. America witnessed how fast the high road collapses in the wake of the bruised feelings of media elitists, Megyn.
Let’s cut to the chase.
Many presidential purists don’t like that President Trump’s tweets aren’t “presidential.” But are the media acting like journalists?
Many Americans take joy in watching Trump put the media and other establishment in its place. These bourgeois intellectuals have acted like children for decades, and now the worm has turned.
The full-frontal, direct attack on the media industrial complex and the crooked politicians they support is long overdue.
