“You Would Have To Pick Him Off The Floor”: Democratic Governor Threatens To Attack The President, Media Thinks It’s Hysterical

terry-mcaullife-chris-matthews


In yet another example that proves that the mainstream media is perfectly fine with violence against President Trump, MSNBC aired an interview with Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe during which the Democrat openly spoke about punching the President of the United States in the face.


MSNBC’s Chris Matthews, responding to rumors that McAuliffe might run for president in 2020, asked the governor what he would do if Trump tried to intimidate him as he supposedly did to so many other politicians during his historic campaign.


“He intimidates his opponents. He takes people like Jeb Bush and makes them look weak. He says “Low energy Jeb” and it works. He refers to somebody as ‘Little Marco’ because he’s not as tall as he is. He finds anybody’s weakness and turns it into something that destroys them.” Matthews noted.


“What would you do in a debate with him if he tried that? If he came over and leaned over back of you, what would you do?” Matthews continued before allowing the governor to directly speak about attacking the president.


“You would have to pick him up off the floor,” McAuliffe shockingly responded.


Amazingly, Matthews actually thought this direct (and possibly illegal) threat to the president was hysterical, going as far as to have the governor repeat said threat itself.


“OK, you mean, you’d deck him?” Matthews continued.


“Listen, this guy got in my space, you want to get in my space, I’ve always said, Chris, you punch me back twice as hard, and it wouldn’t be hard to do it,” McAuliffe responded.


“This guy thinks he can intimidate everybody. It’s disgraceful and embarrassing, but I tell you, when we take him on, back in his face with the facts, don’t take anything from him and hit him back as hard as you possibly can.” the liberal governor continued.


“But if he ever came over and leaned on me and got in my space, that would be the last time Donald Trump ever did that, I promise you that,” McAuliffe threatened.


Matthews ended the segment openly excited over the threats against the president while noting that the segment would go viral.


Make no mistake folks, this is the mainstream media at its finest and is even more proof that anti-Trump media talking heads are actually trying to drum up enough anger against Trump that someone finally snaps and goes after him in a violent manner.

Chris Matthews’ Sex Harassment Payout Means He Should Face Some Hardball Questions of His Own

Why is it people who can’t (or won’t) control themselves are so bent on controlling the rest of us?


“After weekend reports that NBC paid money to a female staffer in 1999 who accused MSNBC’s Chris Matthews of sexual harassment, the network kept mum for a second day about whether there were other women who had accused the longtime host of inappropriate behavior,” Fox News recounted Monday.


The Daily Caller broke the story on Saturday, reporting “Two sources familiar with the situation [said] that Matthews paid $40,000…”


In a way it’s satisfying to watch “the left” eat its own through a #MeToo madness phenomenon that’s long on allegation and short on substantiation, but nonetheless destructive enough to topple the mighty from high places. That doesn’t always work out for “the right,” as the defeat of Roy Moore and the resignation of Alex Kozinski both handed victories to “progressives” we will feel over the years in as-yet untold ways. But there’s an important distinction we should keep in mind: NBC and Matthews (like Congress with John Conyers and Alcee Hastings) paid out.


In Matthews’ case, there’s a special irony because he’s always presented himself as such a “progressive” champion.  We’re talking about a “true believer” whose takeaway from a Bill Clinton speech was:


 ‘That is the voice of God.”


It also lends itself to predictable jokes after listening to an Obama speech prompted him to share:


“I felt this thrill going up my leg.”


His off-mike commentary, where he was caught ogling Melania Trump, merely adds credence to a predilection for inappropriate workplace behavior.


Then again, appropriate workplace behavior, if you’re going to present yourself as a “journalist” (as opposed to an apparatchik) requires balance and sticking to facts, as opposed to naked advocacy.  Such as his unabashed braying for citizen disarmament


And his lack of journalistic integrity came through loud and clear when Matthews  tag-teamed with Mark Potok of the Southern Poverty Law Center to try and gang up on  Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes back in 2009:










What comes through loud and clear is if you’re telling the truth and know what you’re talking about, there’s nothing “progressives” can throw at you that you can’t fling back in their faces. And despite his resorting to Alinsky Rule 5 ridicule to disparage the concept of refusing to obey unlawful orders, here’s a hardball question Matthews should answer:


Are there any orders that female subordinates at MSNBC would be justified in refusing to obey?

“Christian Evangelicals With Their Crazy Ideas” MSNBC Host Chris Matthews Attacks Christians For Supporting Jerusalem As Israel’s Capital

matthews


During an appearance on the openly anti-Trump MSNBC Show “Morning Joe”, leftist host Chris Matthews tore into American Christians for their support of moving the Israeli capital to Jerusalem, making it transparently clear what he and many other liberals actually think about Christianity as a whole.


Matthews not only claimed that evangelical Christians have “crazy ideas” he also essentially called the religion fake by labeling its beliefs as “mythical.” But hey, there is no war on Christianity because the mainstream media said so!


“Deaths are coming now because of this. You can just bet the next few weeks we’ll have hell to pay for this totally erratic decision by this president. Every party who has had the White House since 48 has recognized you have to be careful over there,” Matthews claimed.



“Don’t think this isn’t related to Alabama next week. It is related. Because it’s the Christian Evangelicals down there with their crazy ideas about Israel which is, I don’t know, mythical. They don’t understand the situation over there, how tricky it is ethnically and tribally. They don’t care because it’s a religious belief. Trump is playing into that this week you watch him.”


As The Blazed noted, “Matthews also said the “only hope for peace” in the region is to give Palestinians a “portion of East Jerusalem, maybe all of it.”


“Because if you don’t give the Palestinians hope that they can have national integrity and have a capital where they believe it should be, you’re going to have an unending problem,” Matthews declared as if his political opinion is somehow automatic fact.


While one can argue the merits of moving the capital all day, the fact remains that President Trump ran on a platform to move it and is now completing his campaign promise. The only reason this is such a surprise to the liberal media is because they are used to presidents lying about this issue on the campaign trail while not actually following through once they reach the White House.


Its safe to say, times have changed and the global power structure is clearly not happy with said change.
