Trump Calls Upon MSNBC to Fire Joy Reid After She Compares His Supporters to 'Muslims'

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

President Trump has called upon MSNBC to fire “ReidOut” host Joy Reid for comparing his supporters to radicalized “Muslims.”

“Like Fredo at Fake News @CNN, the very untalented Joy Reid should be fired for this horrible use of the words ‘Muslim Terrorists’. Such xenophobia and racism on MSDNC. Anyone else would be gone, and fast!!!” he tweeted Wednesday morning.

Trump actually misquotes Reid in the tweet. At no point did she say “terrorists.”

What Reid actually said Monday was this: “Leaders — let’s say in the Muslim world — talk a lot of violent talk and encourage their supporters to be willing to commit violence, including on their own bodies, in order to win against whoever they decide is the enemy. We in the U.S. media describe them as they are ‘radicalizing’ those people — particularly when they’re radicalizing young people. That’s how we talk about the way Muslims act. When you see what Donald Trump is doing, is that any different from what we describe as radicalizing people?”

2. So, is trump watching Joy Reid?

If she's pissing off trump she's doing something right.

[underpants]

14. Probably reported in their media.

I heard a local radio guy going after her the other day. MSNBC woman and black. Perfect for them.

[spanone]

28. with the racist in chief they feel no need to hide it.

[TreasonousBastard]

3. What's that they say about publicity? Maybe it'll get more people to watch.

[Demovictory9]

36. +1

Seems obvious, doesn't it?

[bucolic_frolic]

7. Trump has been skewered by the truth! That's why he's mouthing off again.

imo

[iluvtennis]

24. Indeed. nt

[oasis]

10. The radicalization of uneducated dimwits would take some doing. nt

[ProudMNDemocrat]

11. Trump cannot handle the truth.....

Nor muzzle those who speak it. 1st Amendment, baby!

[Celerity]

12. ...

26. There is really somethinng wrong with ppl who make murderous Hitler their hero. SMDH

[calimary]

37. The sickness is strong in them, Luke...

(And I'm not taking COVID-19, either.)

[smirkymonkey]

42. I feel sick to my stomach.

I really do. I can't believe people like this exist. WTF is wrong with them? I do not see people like this in my daily life, thank god, but just knowing that they are out there makes me feel ill.

I will never understand this as long as I live.

[GETPLANING]

13. He is making a mistake trying to take on Joy Reid

She does not suffer fools

[underpants]

15. Golf chokes, dark shadows, Corey Booker, defends the doughmestic terrorist kid

Anyone else would have been fired.

[BadGimp]

16. She made the mistake of not talking "Trumpush"

It's too heavy a discussion for Trumpists

[zentrum]

17. Joy made an apt comparison.

[Grokenstein]

18. When Generalissimo Corpulente feels he's overused "nasty"

he uses "very untalented" for a bit. And yet, aside from his ability to separate fools and their money, I see no talent in him or any of his grotesque spawn.

[spooky3]

19. Joe Biden is right: Stop tweeting and work with Congress to get bills passed. nt

[keithbvadu2]

20. Trump's Militia folks are perfectly content to wear masks to look tough like ISIS.

21. Copycats?

[Traildogbob]

29. Perfect

How many American soldiers died over there to stop it from coming here? The Iraq war has come to our soil.

[gratuitous]

23. Ah, the stink of desperation

He's just making things up to be aggrieved about, because his own actions have so elegantly crippled his campaign.

[Traildogbob]

25. American ISIS

Cult roaming the streets in Pickup trucks shooting at opposition, flying their own hate flags, worshipping a warped hate filled God, and someone else transcribed the meaning of the BOOK to them, because they can’t read. But our DICKtator has not only 2 evil sons, he has a daughter and extremely evil son in law. Loves his picture splattered everywhere and controls a media that praises his every move. And loves everything gold. So, where is Joy Reid wrong? Sharia Law is their mission as well. 72 teenage virgins with blond hair await them. A second term will provide trump statues nation wide.

[Freethinker65]

27. Sounds like she was asking a question? Did Trump answer it or just try to threaten her job?

[LisaM]

30. I wish that one of our Muslim members would weigh in.

It sounds okay to me, but at this point, I sometimes don't recognize what triggers someone else. I'm not sure I 100% like her comparison; she could have been less specific. Just my two cents.

[LuvNewcastle]

31. That comparison hit a little too close to home.

Seriously, when you describe Trump and his ilk so aptly, look out for the backlash.

[alfredo]

32. I will have to refer back to this post

[Gothmog]

33. trump supporters are terrorists

[ehrnst]

34. First amendment, anyone?

He's in a death spiral.

[Skittles]

35. LOL

Trump whining about "xenophobia and racism"

[BootinUp]

41. tasty, yes. nt

[Ohioboy]

38. It's amazing how much time he has to watch TV and tweet!

[BootinUp]

40. She should get a big fat raise. nt

[sandensea]

43. Trumplibans

Like Talibans - but fat and spoiled.

[BigDemVoter]

44. That is a true insult to Muslims, and I'm not joking.

I wouldn't EVER want to be compared to a Pussy-Grabber supporter under ANY circumstance. . .

Hell. . . If I was broken down on the highway, I wouldn't get in a car with a Pussy-Grabber bumper sticker. I would prefer to fucking WALK.

[greyl]

45. She put this attack to sleep on her show hours ago. nt
