Chris Hayes: Trump Is a 'Hot Wet Rag Applied To Infected Wound'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 05/07/2016 4:06:07 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

It's early yet, but Chris Hayes has the early clubhhouse lead for "most disgusting MSM metaphor used on Donald Trump."

On his MSNBC show this evening, Hayes called Trump "a hot wet rag applied to an infected wound." Imagine the outrage if a conservative described Hillary Clinton with a similar simile. Hayes was interviewing the MSM's favorite kind of Republican: Bob Inglis of South Carolina, a former congressman who's terribly worried about global warming and called those of us not so concerned "hoaxsters." Inglis said he'd never vote for Trump: surprise!

By the end of this campaign, someone migh come up with a more disgusting metaphor for Donald Trump, but for now Chris Hayes has the early clubbhouse lead.

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

So he is saying that Trump is a form of traditional medicine.

The description may be unpleasant but it is apt and appropriate.

It is the wound that is disgusting not the cure which is just painful

He paid Trump a complement

I too interpreted it as a compliment, not knowing who Chris Hayes is.

Excellent analysis—you’re right. Even so, the overall metaphor is so gross that it would be seen as a criticism by many. And let’s note that he did call Trump a “rag.”

Is not the MSM exactly like tuberculosis?

Or perhaps Leprosy?

They should all be removed to one island with
the Islamic criminal invaders whom they support
on TV.

I agree. Better a hot wet rag to obliterate the wound than having to burn down the body it's otherwise destined to destroy!

“And let’s note that he did call Trump a “rag.””

He also called him “hot”

Not a bad metaphor. The Republican Party is a liberally infected wound, and they are going to feel the pain of losing their corrupt livelihoods when Trump’s “hot rag” of change lands on them. Thank you Chris.

Hayes is George Wills’ toady and understudy. Aside from Roger Ailes and Bret Baier who gives a damn what he thinks?

????

A hot wet rag would help get the infection out - may sound disgusting but is entirely apropos. The republican Party is a serious infection and trump is the cure --- at this juncture in time.

Trump is working hard giving numerous speeches per day. These talking heads on t.v. are often lazy, saying stupid things without thinking. They get tons of money for saying silly things.
