A Donald Trump supporter defended Trump's offensive tweet smearing Heidi Cruz’ looks as “satire” and as part of Trump's "man's man" awesome masculinity.
Leave it to Fox News to cover Trump’s latest round of misogyny as a Trump vs. Cruz campaign debate – as opposed to a real look into Trump’s record toward women. So we had David Wohl who recently defended Trump by saying, “Donald Trump’s a man’s man and that’s what his followers love about him.”
“Is there any doubt about that?” Wohl now asked, after host Sandra Smith read the original quote. Then he also defended Trump's tweet as satire, also, presumably, of the manly man kind.
WOHL: Donald Trump responded with satire. That was a satirical tweet of his wife next to Heidi Cruz. What if he had made the tweet his beautiful wife and the possible future First Man of the United States, Bill Clinton, with a smirk on his face? Would people have been outraged? No, they would have laughed and moved on and that’s what people need to do with this one.
The other guest, Cruz supporter Katie Pavlich wasn’t buying it.
PAVLICH: Come on. …It’s not funny and I find it, again, amazing how Donald Trump supporters like David continue to condone behavior that’s easily condemnable and when it’s the right thing to do, supporters like David here can’t actually get on the right side of things.
If you ask me, the anti-Trump ad that started it all, which showed a GQ photo of a nude Melania Trump and questioned whether she was fit to be First Lady, was entirely fair game. This was not private behavior but part of her career. The ad was made for conservative Utah voters and raised an issue about Melania Trump's public morality that they might well care about. Trump’s response, however, did nothing to actually defend his wife. He took a mean-spirited, gratuitous swipe at Heidi Cruz with a photo chosen to make her look unattractive. In other words, it was childish retaliation aimed at Cruz' looks.
But Pavlich seemed more interested in emphasizing that Cruz “had nothing to do with the ad” and that when he found out about it, praised Melania Trump.
However, Pavlich did delve somewhat into Trump’s history of attacking women – which Wohl dismissed as all part of Trump’s sense of good fun.
PAVLICH: Donald Trump then responded by again proving that he only cares about what women look like. He again repeated his track record of going after the wives of candidates. Let’s not forget that Heidi Cruz is not one of Donald Trump’s first targets here. Jeb Bush’s wife, of course, was another target of Donald Trump’s inappropriate, immature and frivolous attacks. This proves once again that Donald Trump is un-presidential, unfit for the presidency and he should be making better decisions and people like you should be condemning – it’s not funny.
WOHL: If you don’t have a sense of humor, then you shouldn’t be in this game. It was a satirical tweet. We know Heidi Cruz is a beautiful, smart woman and he had a tweet with her smirking next to his wife to sort of zing back at Ted Cruz for what he perceived to be a horrible naked picture of his wife in an ad in Utah caucuses, just before the caucuses took place and knowing full well that the Mormon people are very offended by that kind of thing. I think you guys are blowing it up to be far more than it is.
Yet neither host Sandra Smith nor Fox News contributor Pavlich mentioned Trump’s continued, sexist attacks on their colleague, Megyn Kelly, the regular host of the show.
I’d say his behavior toward her is quite relevant to Wohl’s claim that Trump was merely responding to an ad and being satirical, wouldn’t you?
Watch everybody ignore the elephant in the room below, from the March 24 The Kelly File.
I can’t use cut n paste with my smartphone but a damn troll can post the whole encyclopedia.
Your comments are looking a lot like spam. They are definitely not commentary on our posts. I am going to start deleting all future comments like the ones you have posted here. If you want to join the discussion, fine. Otherwise, find somewhere else to promote Trump.
Don’t advise me there is no complicity between speaker of the House Paul Ryan and the Obama administration. The GOP Rino’s surrendered to the Democrats, when they passed the Omnibus budget of $$$2.2 Trillion dollars giving this President full authorization to spend taxpayer’s money on:
1. Obamacare (Next year will rise premiums to 81% to fund the Affordable Care Act.
2. Planned Parenthood (With funds for even more abortions)
3. Climate Change (which Hillary Clinton says is unavoidable in killing hundreds of thousands of jobs in the coal industry; closing down coal mines and thereby raising the prices of electricity throughout our country.
4. Funds for Amnesty for 5 million illegal aliens, stealing jobs from less fortunate Americans on the lower pay scale.
5. Funding Sanctuary Cities for criminal illegal aliens, where unsuspecting citizens and legal immigrants live and the local governments refuse to enforce federal immigration laws. Learn the consequences of open borders at http;//www.illegalaliencrimereport.com / YOU WILL NOT READ ABOUT THIS APPALLING ISSUE IN THE PRESS.
6. Funds to settle 65, 000 Syrian Refugees that are infiltrated by butchering jihardists.
7. Funds for millions of American Freeloaders, who prefer to live like viruses on their own people.
Keep an open mind on the polling, the mainstream media, and any confusion relating to Trumps losses in winning the presidency? Forget about the Super PAC’s as they are a bunch of habitual liars, just as Hillary and Ted? It’s carefully planned by both parties, in the public thinking that they will refrain for voting and using there vote to push Ted Cruz, John Kasick or even Hillary Clinton Bernie Sanders or an immense array of hungry money lawmakers into focus to corrupt the White House procedure.
You are never, ever seeing a change with either the Democrats, who believe handing out freebies to ‘human parasites, who thinks ’WORK’ is a term that doesn’t fit in their limited vocabulary. The Profession class politicians in the Republican Party whose major stance is cronyism and selling their votes to wealthy entities, whose lobbyists who are incessantly hanging around Washington. But that doesn’t mean that Democrats are not open to corruption as well, as they to have the lobbyists that are crowding DC.
Very few politicians are not susceptible to the affluent activities of donors, who are mostly in Congress to represent their campaign contributors as precedence, and the American people second. We have seen this with the open border crowd, and don’t care how much funding the foreign invaders get, as long it’s agreeable to the cheap labor factions. One individual had the audacity to state illegal aliens are better workers than average Americans? This promotes serious concerns, when no matter this insipid insinuation does foreign nationals have any priority over an American—born and raised, or a legitimate immigrant?
The Republicans had the absolute nerve to cut back Senior Citizens (COLA) payment, yet they have funds for healthcare, food stamps, and low income housing and cash payments for the illegal alien families?
Breaking news: Militant Socialist-Communist billionaire George Soros has funded Presidential nominee John Kasich in pledging to legalize 11 million illegal aliens.
Absolutely I am voting for Donald Trump for all his minor faults, because I speculate that he is the ONLY politician who will enforce our immigration laws by building a massive wall, enforcing immigration law by implementing an internal mandatory E-Verify that not only pursues illegal aliens in the workplace, buy the business owners who employ them. That Trump will regenerate our army, navy and air force and the equipment they need to enforce the peace. Trump will end the obnoxious Politically Correctness, which has been cleverly infested our sovereign nation by the dismal Liberals, which has inundated our laws to blemish Christian teachings, so it’s an immoral act to say Merry Christmas. If the atheists want to live in their gloomy world let them, but stay away the framers philosophy. Go and suck your poison eggs somewhere else the same with the failing indoctrination of the absurd environmentalists, as thousands of your rules and regulations have killed jobs and robbed America of thriving businesses.
Guns will be back in the hands of honest citizens, who want to protect their families and homes. We all know by now that Political Correctness forced on us by this administration, to give up our weapons. Just ask the dead that haunt San Bernardino, CA, Paris, France, or Brussels Belgium. If several individuals carried a hidden pistol they could have perhaps some of the life’s—not all, but some? If Cruz becomes President there will be limits, to what he is allowed to do by his Special Interests demands and a spouse associated with Goldman Sachs who slyly passed a 1 million dollar loan as a campaign contribution. Same with Hillary Clinton, who is also must genuflect to her wealthy cronies and with all people in any hierarchy of government, will walk away free from her history of criminal activities and her pandering to any new issue that arises through the general election. Trump has a ton of endurance, and will not be panicked by foreign adversaries as Obama. Weak people should not be in the Oval Office, specifically smelled Obama’s tail in removing troops from Iraq. Trump will not play games with Iran or the genocide of Christians as ISIS. They will be blown off the face of the earth.
You cannot help but wonder who is investing money in the Mexican auto industry, who stole our jobs and manufacturing base, just as China, India and other countries. This is probably why jokers as Bill Maher and his cronies hate the Trump voters? The well-heeled people, celebrity and well-known people don’t care about Mr. & Mrs. average who don’t have a portfolio full of stocks and investments, as long as Wall Street is building a huge ‘Ivory Tower’’ somewhere?
