Karoline Leavitt’s violent reaction to veteran MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace has fans going crazy, but once the reason was revealed, nobody questioned it.
Karoline Leavitt attacked Nicolle Wallace of MSNBC for remarks that connected a teenage cancer survivor to the Capitol riot on January 6.
Donald Trump named 13-year-old Devarjaye “DJ” Daniel, who was diagnosed with brain cancer in 2018, an honorary Secret Service agent during his Tuesday night speech before Congress.
Wallace, 53, turned the kind gesture into a negative by making a string of deplorable comments, which swiftly led to criticism of the president’s actions.
The MSNBC host started off by saying, “I hope he lives the life he wants to live and that he lives for another 95 years.” Before turning to the deadly Capitol riot on January 6, 2021, she added, “He wants to be a cop, he knows what he wants to do, and maybe when you have childhood cancer that crystallizes for you.”
“I hope he lives a long life as a law enforcement officer, but I hope he never has to defend the U.S. Capitol against Donald Trump’s supporters, and if he does, I hope he isn’t one of the six who lose his life to suicide,” she said.
Wallace also expressed her hope that Daniel won’t have to “testify against the people who carried out acts of seditious conspiracy and then live to see Donald Trump pardon those people” during the segment.
The White House Press Secretary was among those who swiftly condemned the MSNBC anchor’s hateful remark on the internet.
Leavitt, 27, claimed that Democratic politicians and members of the mainstream media “allowed their Trump Derangement Syndrome to stop them from celebrating America” during her press briefing on Wednesday.
White House Press Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, 27, blasted MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace after the television host ‘disgustingly’ tied a cancer-riddled boy to the gruesome January 6 Capitol riot.
By bringing up “suicide” in the conversation about the terminally ill teen (left), MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace (right), 53, was able to deflect the President’s noble gesture.
It is still not understood by the mainstream media. Leavitt said, “Nicolle Wallace of MSNBC disgustingly looped in a 13-year-old boy with brain cancer into an attack on the president over January 6 last night.”
The White House official went on to criticize CNN, pointing out that the cable network referred to the president’s speech as “divisive” on national television.
“President Trump did not cause division.” According to a post-speech poll, 69 percent of viewers said they had a positive reaction to the President’s speech, proving CNN was wrong and the Democrats were wrong, Leavitt said.
Shortly after, she displayed a printed copy of a CBS News/YouGov survey that indicated 76 percent of Americans “approved” of the speech. She says the president gave her the poll.
Wallace made a comeback to the air on Wednesday, but she declined to respond to mounting calls for her termination.
A remorseless Wallace ignored the harsh criticism she received during her segment and persisted in criticizing President Trump.
The 53-year-old anchor was not the only MSNBC host, though, to express disapproval of the president’s speech.
The 51-year-old Rachel Maddow called Trump’s honoring Daniel “disgusting,” while Joe Scarborough, co-host of “Morning Joe,” said the speech was filled with “so much nonsense” on Wednesday morning.

She stated, “For the record, and this is disgusting, the president made a spectacle out of praising a young man who has so far survived pediatric cancer, as if the president had something to do with that.”
Viewers are out for blood, despite the fact that neither Wallace nor the network have issued any kind of statement regarding her offensive comments.
“Nicole Wallace is fired by @MSNBC!!!!” “Nicolle Wallace is one twisted and hateful demon,” one user wrote, while another added. She ought to be removed from MSNBC.
Another person said, “Nicolle Wallace, this chick on MSNBC, needs to be fired for saying she hopes a 13-year-old cancer patient doesn’t kill himself.” “Like, what the hell?”
Someone else said, “I call on the firing of Nicolle Wallace.” At least dozens of people, the majority of whom lean right, agreed.
One such user commented, “This is the most disgusting thing I’ve ever heard someone say,” and then added, “Leave the kids alone!”
The 13-year-old, who is battling an incurable rare brain and spine cancer, had undergone 13 surgeries by the time he was 12 years old.
As he and his family work to increase awareness of his condition, he is attempting to get sworn into as many law enforcement agencies as he can.
He was informed that he would probably only have five months left to live when he was diagnosed in 2018.
As Republicans in the House gallery chanted his nickname, “DJ,” the cancer-stricken teen was held up by his father for the heartwarming Tuesday night moment as he received his badge from Director Sean Curran.
“Being a police officer has always been his dream,” Trump stated. However, DJ received a brain cancer diagnosis in 2018.
Trump names a boy with brain cancer an honorary Secret Service agent.
He had a maximum of five months to live, according to the doctors. More than six years have passed since then. DJ and his father have been working to fulfill his dream ever since.
“And we’re going to give you the greatest honor of all tonight, DJ.”
About 15,000 children in the US are diagnosed with childhood cancer each year, making it a rare disease.
Although the number of pediatric cancer cases has increased recently, the disease’s fatality rate has decreased as a result of better treatment options.
“We want to keep our kids healthy and strong, remove toxins from our environment, and remove poisons from our food supply,” he stated.
