A tweet from Cindy McCain. I know this is DU, but garbage like the message sent to her....

[George II]

....has NO place in America. No doubt the sender feels emboldened in light of the way trump acts day to day, even hour to hour:

1. Wow

Let's hope that dear Tiffany is fired from whatever job she has and becomes unemployable.

[TheBlackAdder]

9. The irony of calling someone fat when their own face doesn't even fit in the frame!

.

She holds it on an angle to get 2/3rds of it in.

.

[George II]

19. Bazinga!

[hlthe2b]

2. They really have no shame. Trump's little cult of sociopaths

[Corgigal]

3. Parents

raise your children to be better adults. I would crawl under a rock and consider myself a failure if one of my young adult children did this.

[Mister Ed]

4. Dear God, I hope that's a Russian bot...

And not a living, breathing woman.
I refuse to believe that any woman on earth could be so foul.

[TxVietVet]

10. tRumpanzees are vile

Individuals .
Just like the conservanazi Republicans.

[Foolacious]

38. can you post a link to her FB page?

There are lots of Tiffany Nicole profiles.

[Foolacious]

43. I found it. I think.

https://www.facebook.com/glitterybamf

But there's no content that I can see, and her background image is of Alex Jones. A Bernie Bro, really?

[Kingofalldems]

56. Great catch.

[Kingofalldems]

42. Why do you post this 3 times in one thread?

One would suffice.

[Foolacious]

57. Hmmm...

I see no evidence that she's a Bernie Bro. And you joined DU yesterday. Not sure what to think....

[Foolacious]

74. Welp, MichiganLefty's messages in this thread have all been "auto-removed".

Can anyone tell me what that means? Did an admin step in?

ETA: MichiganLefty was claiming that the person, "Tiffany Nicole", who posted that horrible message to Cindy McCain was a Bernie Bro based on her Facebook page. But none of us here could find evidence of that. Then I noted that MichiganLefty was brand-new to DU. Troll?

[Foolacious]

82. Re: the cover photo of Alex Jones (Infowars)

The FB profile of "Tiffany Nicole" is either blocked to almost all viewing or has been almost completely scrubbed. There is a comment by her on the Jones photo, which shows him apparently toking something. She writes, "Well that explains a lot", which suggests to me that she is not necessarily a fan. That is all.

[Hekate]

89. MIRT took care of it. That's the Malicious Intruder Removal Team. Good work, MIRT. nt

[nycbos]

5. Send this to her employer.

[handmade34]

11. I hope Karma

is listening! she needs to be called out

[Blue_true]

17. I was thinking the same thing. nt

[nicehuman16]

72. I agree-Identify and out this creep

This hateful POS needs to be outed. Let her employer and her neighbors know what a disgusting person they have living among them.

[Hekate]

88. "Her" employer might reside in a Moscow suburb

[spanone]

6. politics aside, there are some seriously fucked up people on this earth

ms. nicole is one of them

[TheBlackAdder]

7. She seems nice.

[spooky3]

8. I thought Twitter didn't allow any "conservatives" to post due to its bias. nt

[Drunken Irishman]

14. It's a Facebook post shared on her twitter.

[spooky3]

15. But aren't those Facebook people just as biased? (this is sarcasm based on comments by

Nunes, Trump, and friends).

[ornotna]

44. You keep saying that without proof

Got a link? Otherwise you're just spreading malicious nonsense.

[ornotna]

59. I don't need to be spoon fed Bud

You need to post verifiable facts or you should delete all that nonsense. You took the time to spew it, now back it up.

[Kingofalldems]

55. Agreed. I looked this up and find nothing.

[Jarqui]

12. So ugly nt

[FM123]

13. "I'm posting her note for her family and friends could see."

I am afraid that Cindy McCain will find that this woman's family and friends not only know she is so deplorable, but are the deplorable tree from which that rotten apple fell....

[melman]

16. Do you follow Cindy McCain on twitter?

[George II]

20. Why do you ask?

[melman]

23. Because you posted a Cindy McCain tweet

[George II]

24. Andddddddddddddddddddd.....................?

[melman]

25. Cindy McCain's tweet

presumably comes from Cindy McCain's account. And by presumably I mean certainly.


So in order to come across Cindy McCain's tweet one would have to either..

-- visit Cindy McCain's page

-- be following Cindy McCain

-- or follow pages that retweet Cindy McCain


Which do you do?

[mopinko]

27. are you on twitter? cuz that's not how it works.

all kinds of things pop up on my page because someone i follow rt's it.

calm down.

[melman]

33. "because someone i follow rt's it"

That's why I mentioned this part here ---> "or follow pages that retweet Cindy McCain"

[edbermac]

40. It showed up on mine because I follow Avenatti.

51. You don't need to follow anyone to see a tweet on some article somewhere. nt

60. Did I say you did?

Feel free to point out where.

[George II]

73. Hah! Enjoy your visit to the aquarium tomorrow. Make sure you bring some raw fish...

....to feed to the inhabitants.

You know what I mean.

[tblue37]

91. No, but you keep saying the other poster must have. nt

[Dorian Gray]

92. So, you're NOT trying to....

"GOTCHA!!!"??? with the inquisition?

I get many retweets from people whom I would normally follow all the time. Primarily bc of shocking behavior like this. The McCain's get a lot of Trump vitriol, so it's not surprising that Meagan or her mom are retweeted by political pundits or journalists that I may follow.

[ehrnst]

96. LoL!

[melman]

97. .

Yeah it's really hilarious how I had already mentioned the thing they pointed out.

[irisblue]

28. Melman....dude

It, the Cindy McCain story is also on CNNPolitics & Acostas feeds as well.
You working out an issue?
Geez

[still_one]

79. seems that way

[Cha]

85. LOL!

irisblue

[George II]

29. Why do you care other than trying (vainly) for a "gotcha"? ......

....Since you're so concerned about social media, etc., when are you going to address your "presumably" false concerns about the so-called "death threats" that you obsessed about recently? Where are they? Still waiting!

https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1287&pid=28596

As my all-time favorite President used to say, "c'mon man!"

[melman]

34. "Still waiting"

Why? I already told you I'm not going to hunt down links for you.


If you really cared you could easily find it for yourself. It's mentioned in several of the articles.

[George II]

37. Sorry, I can't "find" something that doesn't exist. Nice try. But I'll still keep asking.

[lapucelle]

63. Oh look, the Cindy McCain story is right there on CNN's website,

and it includes a hyperlink that goes directly to the tweet.

https://www.cnn.com/2019/03/19/politics/cindy-mccain-hateful-message-stranger/index.html

False Dilemma
When only two choices are presented yet more exist, or a spectrum of possible choices exists between two extremes. False dilemmas are usually characterized by “either this or that” language, but can also be characterized by omissions of choices. Another variety is the false trilemma, which is when three choices are presented when more exist.

Somebody needs a donut.

[George II]

64. .

[lapucelle]

68. ...

That was quite a stretch...even a giraffe couldn't reach it!

[sheshe2]

84. "Bend and stretch. Reach for the sky."

"Stand on tippie toes my oh my"

Perhaps you are to young to remember Romper Room.


Love your giraffe!

[still_one]

81. A bus? I think you missed it

[tblue37]

50. I don't follow anyone on Twitter, and yet I run across tweets from many people when I

visit other sites. Some of the people whose tweets I see are people I have heard of, while others are not.

If the tweet is interesting or important, I even bring it back and post it here.

So your assumption is simply wrong.

[betsuni]

61. Oh, melman. Stop trying to make "DUers are secret Republicans" happen.

[lapucelle]

65. Oh look! The CNN story links directly to the tweet!

[betsuni]

71. Whew! I was, like, worried that I really am a Republican because I've seen lots of Trump's tweets.

[jberryhill]

83. Lol

[Dorian Gray]

94. HA HA HA

Right!!!!!!

Like they aren't posted and dissected here all the time?

[canetoad]

93. Or stumbled across it

Somewhere on the internet.

[irisblue]

18. RW twitter has already posted her instagram & her FB acct is gone.

And her IG acct closed as I was looking at it. Honey girl thought she'd get away with it. Hmmm hmmm hmmm

[tulipsandroses]

21. My goodness, what deplorable person she is

I hope she is exposed for her online harassment.

[George II]

22. For the record, I don't think much of Cindy McCain for a number of reasons, and...

...I think even less of Meghan McCain.

As it used to be worded during the 2008 Presidential campaign, I have "fundamental disagreements" with most of John McCain's policies and positions, but.........

We do NOT need to go full trump on people we don't agree with.

And for as long as I live, I will relish in John McCain's "thumbs down" on watering down the ACA (I stayed up all night to see it), that alone made him an American hero in my eyes.

[TruckFump]

26. Exactly! EOM

[politicaljunkie41910]

41. But you did just go full Trump on his wife and daughter, so what the difference?

He's dead and the president who claims to have such high regard for the military, but never served himself, is attacking him publicly, and jokes about his time spent in captivity which has to hurt them. So you think it's a good idea to chime in?

[George II]

48. How?

[yardwork]

67. What are you talking about?

[Shrike47]

70. I see no Trumpian attack, no juvenile insults.

[Dorian Gray]

95. huh?

[MFM008]

66. Me to.

Plus i knew it would tweak maggot
As much as it onviously has.

[Hekate]

90. What you said, George

[blm]

35. Probably not a real Sanders supporter, but, the Russian troll farm type.

.

[blm]

52. No content there. Anyone posting that crazy and over the top, my first guess will

be it’s a fvcking troll intent on discord. Russian gaslighting tactic doesn’t work well at DU.

[blm]

58. Not coming up for me.

I will remain skeptical for now.

[blm]

62. No friends or relatives coming up for me. Maybe you have special access

that others don’t?

[C Moon]

86. The same phrase was used by trolls in 2016.

[Cha]

46. omg.

[Cha]

45. Wow.. Cindy McCain handled

that pretty well.

[AlexSFCA]

47. Free speech at its finest, not free from consequences

I love it when deplorables are exposed like that on national tv.

[dlk]

54. I Never Cared for McCain's Politics, However, this Tweet is Abusive & Inexcusable

Why isn’t this abusive, verbally assaulting person’s account shut down? Twitter is becoming a cesspool.

[cstanleytech]

69. A pox on both of them. nt

[EndGOPPropaganda]

75. This is bad. Also, her husband encourages stuff like this

Her husband is the editor at the Federalist, a “Dark web” rightwing propaganda outlet that encourages islamophobia and other forms of rightwing hate.

This is a bad message.
But Cindy McCain and her husband need to get their own house in order because her husband actively encourages hate.

[betsuni]

76. That's Meghan McCain. Cindy is her mother.

[EndGOPPropaganda]

78. Right

Well, her son in law, then.

(Agreed it’s less bad for Cindy. But she should be calling out her son in law Domenech)

[George II]

77. Excuse me, but Cindy McCain's husband passed away about eight months ago.

[EndGOPPropaganda]

80. Sorry, her son in law. Ben Domenech

[samplegirl]

87. Maybe it's time to

Consider leaving the trump party that have embraced for so long.
