OnFull FrontalWednesday night, Samantha Beecalled Ivanka Trump afeckless cunt.
It was not the first time Bee has called someone a cunt on national television.
Its not the use of explicit profanity being directed toward women.
Its not the degraded standards for discourse on our airwaves and in our culture.
Its divisive, its dangerous, and its absolutely par for the Trump-administration course.
That whataboutism continued today when Sanders criticized Bee and called for TBS to cancelFull Frontal.
Jarrett said Tuesday that Iger phoned her to apologize on behalf of the company for Barrs racist tweet.
The suggestion is that calling someone racist is just as offensive as saying something racist maybe even more so.
Lets apply that logic to the Samantha Bee business.
Maybe Bee shouldnt have used that specific word.
Bees larger point was to criticize Ivanka Trumps insensitive and tone-deaf photograph.
Saying that both women deserve to be fired suggests their offenses are identical.
In a lot of ways, this whole thing strikes me asSmoky Eye II: The Reckoning.
She burns facts, and then she uses the ash to create a perfect smoky eye, Wolf cracked.
Maybe shes born with it, maybe its lies.
The worst rhetoric of all?
Its coming from inside the White House.
