Might this, finally, be the tipping point?
Some say that he wasn't like that before he started selling home-brew kiddie porn...
The controversy over Kathy Griffin holding up a bloodied severed head of Donald Trump — an action which has led to her removal from CNN's New Year's Eve programming — reportedly spilled into the President's family when TMZ reported that the Trumps' 11-year son "Barron was in front of the TV watching a show when the news came on and he saw the bloody, beheaded image." TMZ says: "We're told he panicked and screamed, 'Mommy, Mommy!'"
I was hoping against hope that the level of "discourse" hasn't sunk to the point where people who should know better would start attacking Barron or using him to criticize the Trumps. Rosie O'Donnell and several others who should know better dashed those hopes Wednesday afternoon.
I should have known that O'Donnell would among those who couldn't help themselves.
In late November, she "shared a video that suggested that ... Barron might be autistic." She linked to "a seven-minute video compiling clips from the Republican National Convention, the presidential debates, and Trump’s acceptance speech that suggested (that then) 10-year-old Barron might be showing signs of autism."
She defended what she did for three days, suggesting, among other things, as described by the Washington Times, that "that Barron was fair game because Mr. Trump is president-elect."
It's amazing how quickly some on the left moved from "leave them alone" with Barack Obama's daughters to "Trump's boy is fair game."
Over a week after her initial speculation, O'Donnell finally apologized to Melania Trump (but apparently not to the President-elect): "I apologize to @MELANIATRUMP - i was insensitive in my RT - i am sorry for the pain i caused - it was not my intent - i am truly sorry."
Earlier Wednesday, O'Donnell responded to the TMZ report by using Barron's reported reaction to go after his father (HT Twitchy):
O'Donnell is referring to the two men killed in Portland by a far-left Bernie Sanders and Jill Stein supporter. There is no way one can make sense of her claim that the man's hatred was "promoted by his (Barron's) father." But that's not the point. The point is to tie Donald Trump to any and every possible expression of hate, and to then hope that many of those who see her post don't learn the truth.
Others are calling the TMZ report "fake news" and accusing those who are giving it any credibility of hypocrisy. One of them is April Reign, who is Managing Editor of Broadway Black and Editor-at-Large of Nu Tribe Magazine, with the following pair of tweets (links here and here):
Peter S. Hall, a Senior Editor for Movies.com and Fandango, joined the "fake news" chorus and added a truly disgusting twist:
To his credit, Hall has apologized: "You're right. It's unfair to single a kid out. I apologize and I deleted it."
To his detriment, what would possess anyone who has a very young son himself to publish that horrible tweet in the first place?
Ken Jennings, who became famous as a Jeopardy contestant and has apparently used that fame to opportunistically promote his unhinged views, defended Griffin yesterday and went full sarcasm today, implying that an 11 year-old should be able to handle what he allegedly saw.
Grounds for reader outrage would include the number of people who liked Jennings' Wednesday tweet:
Conservative author and chief investment officer of TrendMacro Don Luskin had the perfect reaction to Jennings, and it really applies to everyone out there going after Barron Trump over his reported reaction to the Griffin incident or using the reporting about him to attack his parents and his family:

She is gonna end up playing bars full of violent farm boys drunk on warm homebrew beer and cold food. Chickenwire in front of the stage to keep the performers from getting hurt by thrown beer bottles. 50 bucks a night and all you can eat of last night’s food.
I’m guessing that President Trump now understands and shares the hatred we feel for the left. Hopefully he uses that hatred in a productive way.
What do you expect from a political party that aborts BABIES, rips off their arms and legs and LAUGHS ABOUT IT..thinks its the funniest thing EVER..these people are NOT human, they are demented soulless creatures..karma will get them one day and then they won’t be laughing so much anymore
Barron’s mother, Melania, is super smart, and so are her attorneys.
I hope they find a way to sue Griffin and her photographer for millions.
Untreated mental illness descends into liberalism.
When you’re defending the indefensible, it takes you down some pretty dark and twisted roads.

Yes, this is the jackass from Jeopardy.

Americans hate sore loosers.
The scum always rises to the top.
Um, I don’t see any actual tweets so what was actually said??
In the case of her downfall, it started IMHO with that infamous “interview” with Tom Selleck on that talk show she used to have.
Libs, you told us not to say anything bad about Obama’s daughters, so shut your piehole about Barron.
I too find it hard to believe that the boy actually saw the head on TMZ but that is not the point - I wouldn’t let my children watch that station. The point is, the rats said the Obama kids and Clinton’s brat were off limits so Baron should receive the same respect.
There is no human decency anymore. I realized that in the 60’s when people stopped showing respect for women by not taking off of hats. Also men always wore suits which is a sign of respect as well. I vividly recall photos of the depression where men in lines were in suits - ragged but just the same. This country went casual and so did morality. I’d like to think that we conservatives did not follow suit. (Pun not intended.)
