« I am never more disappointed with a woman I thought I admired in my life », former Sen Claire McCaskill added
MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace tore Tory columnist Peggy Noonan to pieces for calling Democratic vice presidential candidate Kamala Harris « embarrassing » for dancing on the election track, saying she believed that Noonan was « bitchy » and « deaf » «
Noonan, a former speechwriter and aide to President Ronald Reagan, sparked backlash over the weekend for his Wall Street Journal op-ed which disdainfully targeted Harris, who seeks to become the first black female vice- president
« She’s the youngest candidate to vote for the youngest, and she goes for a Happy Warrior vibe, but she looks insignificant, frivolous, » Noonan wrote. « When she started dancing in the rain on stage, in Jacksonville, Florida, on Mary J Blige’s « Work That », it was embarrassing «
Wallace, meanwhile, didn’t mince words during Monday’s broadcast of Deadline: White House, wondering if “right-wing Twitter could handle” his upcoming comments on Noonan while giving them preemptively « one second to prepare their tweets » reply
« When you’re a white woman and you’re a Republican, and you only know some things culturally that you don’t know Jack Bip about and you should keep your mouth shut on other people dancing, » the former George W Bush White House communications director said
“And what’s that line about dancing to a drum beat?” she continued, “That, to me, was deaf, it was mean, it was personal and it was bitchy! »
MSNBC political analyst Claire McCaskill, a former Democratic senator, agreed with Wallace, adding that she was « going to take a deep breath » and « try to stay calm » before giving her reaction to the chronicle of Noonan
« I’m never more disappointed with a woman I thought I admired in my life, » McCaskill growled. « She said at the end of that, that you hadn’t read the very last part of this paragraph, Nicolle, because she said it was embarrassing No, Peggy, I’ll tell you what’s embarrassing «
Wallace, meanwhile, stepped in to tell her viewers that she hadn’t read that part out loud « on purpose »
McCaskill went on to list a number of President Donald Trump’s personal and political scandals, such as the use of silent money to silence mistresses, in order to characterize Trump as much more embarrassing than Harris.
« And yes, even a president who can’t dance, doesn’t know how to show joy or empathy and tries to do some kind of ridiculous arm push at the ‘YMCA’, » she added. , referencing a new feature from Trump’s Campaign Rallies « This is the embarrassing thing Kamala Harris is anything but embarrassing She’s uplifting She’s inspiring She’s strong and substantial and she’s going to be one hell of a vice president »
Wallace applauded McCaskill at the end, telling the former Missouri lawmaker, « I’ve never loved you more »
