The mainstream media is melting down. Donald Trump has officially broken them.
And this MSNBC host said this one appalling thing about President Trump’s address that you have to see to believe.
The Leftist media’s response to President Trump’s recent address to a joint session of Congress was insane. But here’s the twist: with the old-guard press losing its grip on influence and its once-shiny stars either jumping ship or getting the boot, the tantrums felt oddly subdued this time around.
Back in Trump’s first term, the hysterics were relentless, a 24/7 circus of outrage. Now, after the Democrats and their pals in the press have been pummeled by Trump’s electoral steamroller, they’re stumbling around cluelessly.
The voters? They’re loving it. CBS News clocked approval of Trump’s speech at a whopping 76 percent. CNN’s quick poll wasn’t far behind, with 69 percent giving it a thumbs-up. Meanwhile, the Democrats in the room were sulking and stewing while the country tuned out their noise.
The usual suspects, CNN and MSNBC, tried to spin a tale of a divided nation, but it’s falling flat. People see through the charade now—three-quarters of the country isn’t buying the fake news script anymore.
Topping the list of cringe was MSNBC’s Nicole Wallace, who dragged a cancer-stricken kid into her Trump obsession. Young DJ Daniels, who dreams of being a cop, got a heartwarming moment when he was named an honorary Secret Service member during the address. The Democrats? They sat there, unmoved, pouting like toddlers denied a snack.
Wallace, though, took it to a grotesque level, swiping at Trump over January 6 with this gem: “I hope he never has to defend the United States Capitol against Donald Trump’s supporters.” Then she doubled down, hinting she hoped the kid wouldn’t “commit su*cide or something.”
Nicole Wallace just went after a little kid with cancer, saying “I hope he never has to defend the United States Capitol against Donald Trump’s supporters.”

Even Jen Psaki looks uncomfortable.

Over on CNN, Scott Jennings played cleanup, calling out the Democrats’ sour behavior while tangling with David Axelrod. Jennings pointed out Axelrod’s analysis was dripping with denial, a throwback to when his old boss, Barack Obama, pinned every woe on George Bush. Trump, meanwhile, swung a wrecking ball at Biden’s dismal record, and the crowd ate it up. The media? They flailed.
A sliver of sanity did peek through when some MSNBC voices admitted the whiteboards and signs in the chamber were a bit much
The Leftist Media’s Vile Reaction: A Deeper Dive
The Leftist media’s response wasn’t just predictable—it was downright repulsive in spots. Nicole Wallace’s stunt with DJ Daniels wasn’t an outlier; it was a symptom of a deeper rot. These outlets, once titans of influence, are now scrambling to stay relevant, and their desperation is showing.
Wallace’s attempt to weaponize a sick child’s moment of joy against Trump wasn’t just tasteless—it was a new low, even for a network that’s made a cottage industry out of Trump Derangement Syndrome. Her fixation on January 6, years later, reeks of someone who’s lost the plot and knows the audience is drifting away.
CNN didn’t fare much better. While Jennings landed some solid punches, the network’s wider framing clung to the tired “America is bitterly divided” line, ignoring the landslide of voter approval. It’s as if they think repeating the same old script will magically make it true.
The disconnect is glaring: when your own snap poll shows 69 percent positivity, maybe it’s time to ditch the doom-and-gloom playbook. But no—they’d rather double down than admit the ground’s shifted.
MSNBC and CNN’s antics highlight a media class that’s not just out of touch but actively spiteful. They couldn’t celebrate a kid’s dream coming true without twisting it into a political dagger.
They couldn’t acknowledge Trump’s resonance with voters without sneering. And they couldn’t resist dragging out the same partisan tropes, even as their own data contradicted the narrative.
It’s not just bias—it’s bitterness, and it’s turning them into caricatures. The public’s moved on, but the Leftist press is still screaming into the void, hoping someone, anyone, still cares.
