The old phony throwing-of-the -script trick MSNBC likes

I cannot call what Wallace did a "tantrum" since it was an obviously rehearsed stunt, with the cameraman changing to a new location to catch the script throw.

MSNBC Throws a Tantrum: Judge Luttig Rages at Trump - The American Spectator | USA News and Politics . . ."In other words, it’s A-OK to attack a Supreme Court justice and his family because of conservative political activism — Justice Thomas’ wife in this instance. But if former President Trump takes a page from the Left’s playbook and calls out the far-left activism of a judge’s daughter — a judge sitting on his case — than woe betide the world.

"The utter hypocrisy involved in all this from MSNBC’s Wallace and Judge Luttig is enough to swallow the Grand Canyon.

"Each has done more in their respective fields to thoroughly discredit the media — in Wallace’s case — and the federal judiciary — in Luttig’s case — then most of their peers combined.

"They have become vivid symbols of the problems in their professions.

"Shameful.

"But don’t expect a single thing to be done about it. Like, say, being fired from MSNBC à la Ronna McDaniel or expelled from the Supreme Court Bar and losing the license to practice law, as done to Trump attorney John Eastman.

"The Establishment lives by different rules. And because they don’t live by the old-fashioned rules of integrity and fairness? That means nothing. Not a fireable offense.

"Got it." . . .

Internet dubs Nicole Wallace 'drama queen' as MSNBC host throws script on air, condemns Donald Trump's attack on judge's daughter    

“We all have to understand that from the first time that the former president began his attacks — vicious attacks — on the federal courts and the state courts and their judges, his objective was to delegitimize those courts so that when and if they ruled against him in the various matters that he’s been charged with, then at least his followers, if not a good part of the nation, would dismiss those rulings against him as having been politically inspired and motivated,” he said….

Manhattan prosecutors asked a judge to clarify a gag order on Friday imposed on Trump following social media posts by the former commander-in-chief that criticized the judge’s daughter.

Got that?

"Wallace and Luttig are infuriated because Donald Trump attacked the daughter of a federal judge ruling on one of his cases. The cause: the daughter’s decidedly far-left, anti-Trump political activism. (READ MORE: The Corporate Media Mocks ‘Double Haters’)

"Might we talk selective outrage?

"Who, exactly, set the precedent for calling out the family members of judges because of their political activism?

"Can anyone say “Ginni Thomas”?
