Retarded? Apparently, many on the “woke right” have gone full-retard with their anti-MAGA rhetoric. For REAL news, opinions, and videos that aren’t retarded, check out the fastest growing conservative and Christian news aggregator!
In this NewsBusters article, Siena Do argues that MSNBC/MS NOW host Lawrence O’Donnell overreacted to Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s remarks at a UFC memorandum-of-understanding signing ceremony.
- The article says Rubio gave a brief speech praising UFC as an example of American ambition and risk-taking, comparing that spirit to John F. Kennedy’s moon-shot challenge.
- Rubio’s comments focused on the country’s history of doing difficult things and on UFC as a company that pursued something others did not believe was possible.
- O’Donnell responded by framing the remarks as praise for Donald Trump and as a degradation of the White House.
- NewsBusters argues that Rubio did not mention Trump by name and that O’Donnell injected Trump into a speech that was not primarily about him.
- O’Donnell called the comparison to Kennedy’s moon-shot “deeply perverted” and accused Rubio of lying about people doubting whether the moon mission was possible.
- The article pushes back by noting Kennedy’s own famous framing of the moon mission as difficult, not easy, suggesting Rubio’s point was broadly defensible.
- Do also criticizes O’Donnell for ignoring historical examples of presidents and White House culture being far from pristine, citing Teddy Roosevelt, Bill Clinton, and JFK.
- The broader takeaway is that NewsBusters sees O’Donnell’s segment as another example of anti-Trump media figures turning even loosely related remarks into a Trump-focused outrage segment.
