Excerpt:
MSNBC could not help themselves from completely stepping in it Tuesday night.
After President Donald Trump’s address to Congress, host Nicole Wallace gave her reaction, noting a particular moment when Trump made DJ Daniel — a 13-year-old cancer survivor — an honorary Secret Service agent.
Instead of simply applauding Daniel’s bravery and wishing him the best during that heartwarming moment, Wallace used it to give viewers what CNN pundit Scott Jennings called, “One of the worst cable news moments I’ve ever seen.”

After saying she let herself feel “joy” about Daniel’s moment and hoping he’s “alive for another 95 years,” Wallace gave into the temptation of dragging the moment down and beating the dead horse that is Jan. 6, 2021, in the most vile way possible.
“I hope he has a long life as a law enforcement officer. But I hope he never has to defend the United States Capitol against Donald Trump’s supporters, and if he does, I hope he isn’t one of the six who loses his life to suicide,” she told her fellow panelists in a manner that came off as incredibly stupid, outrageous, callous and miscalculated.
