MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace and Rachel Maddow have been blasted as “sick and twisted” after they shamelessly politicized President Trump making 13-year-old most cancers survivor Devarjaye “DJ” Daniel an honorary Secret Service agent.
Trump had praised DJ’s years-long struggle with mind most cancers in some of the touching moments of his speech to Congress late Tuesday, with the courageous youngster — carrying a police uniform — then proudly exhibiting off his new legislation enforcement badge to the viewers.
Nonetheless, Wallace and Maddow rapidly used the emotional second to tear Trump throughout an MSNBC panel.
Maddow bizarrely accused Trump of being “disgusting” for spotlighting DJ’s heroic battle with the illness, which the teenager had initially been warned would kill him in months.
“For the file – and that is disgusting – the president made a spectacle out of praising a younger man who’s so far survived pediatric most cancers – as if the president had one thing to do with that,” the lefty host raged.
Wallace, in the meantime, tried to hyperlink DJ’s aspirations of changing into a cop to the Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol riots.
“I hope he’s alive for one more 95 years and I hope he lives the life he desires to stay. He desires to be a cop, he is aware of what he desires to do and perhaps when you may have childhood most cancers that crystallizes for you,” Wallace mentioned after noting she had felt “pleasure” over the boy’s second.
“I hope he has an extended life as a legislation enforcement officer, however I hope he by no means has to defend the US capitol in opposition to Donald Trump’s supporters and if he does, I hope he isn’t one of many six who loses his life to suicide,” she continued in a twisted leap of logic.
“And I hope he isn’t one which has to testify in opposition to the individuals who carried out acts of seditious conspiracy after which lived to see Donald Trump pardon these individuals.”
The backlash in opposition to the pair was swift on social media — with many eviscerating them for politicizing the kid’s harrowing struggle with the illness.
“MSNBC simply used DJ Daniel to assault President Trump. THESE PEOPLE ARE SICK AND TWISTED,” one person posted on X.
One other fired off, “Rachel Maddow is foul. She couldn’t go away the poor boy out of politics. What an amazing night time for DJ Daniel! Pathetic Maddow must recover from TDS!”
“MSNBC truly politicized DJ Daniel’s second on the Joint Deal with tonight. DJ Daniel was identified with a mind tumor and this hack Nicole Wallace is speaking about suicide and J6? She must be fired,” one person griped in an X submit.
