Chris Cillizza, who once said Hillary should drink "Mad bitch beer", criticizes Michelle Wolf

Chris Cillizza, who was once stripped of his video segment in the Washington Post for calling Hillary Clinton a mad bitch, has a column criticizing Michelle Wolf, comedian who roasted Sarah Huckabee Sanders in the WH correspondents dinner:

There are LOTS of way to go after Sanders. I personally think that she is overly antagonistic to the reporters who cover the White House and misleads on the regular. But to make fun of Sanders' makeup? ("I think she's very resourceful, like she burns facts and then she uses that ash to create a perfect smokey eye. Maybe she's born with it, maybe it's lies," said Wolf.) Like, really?

I know lots of liberals will -- and already have via Twitter -- painted the attacks on Sanders as the press secretary getting what she deserved. I don't subscribe to that idea. Sanders showed up, sat on the dais and played along. She knew she was likely to get made fun of. But she would have no reasonable expectation that Wolf would go after her looks and refer to her as an "Uncle Tom, but for white women who disappoint other white women."

I'm stunned that Sanders sat five feet away from Wolf and just took it.

Chris Cillizza is also a fucking idiot.

Michelle never went after her looks.

Chris, I promise that I won't go after you for your pronounced lisp. However, I will go after you because you are a fucking idiot and a fucking tool.
