Donald Trump has never been one to hold back, and his latest takedown of MSNBC is a masterclass in calling out the media for what they really are—overpaid, agenda-driven hacks who have completely lost touch with the American people. This time, he’s calling for the resignations of Nicolle Wallace and Rachel Maddow, and honestly, he’s not wrong.
MSNBC has always been a disaster, but lately, they’ve been in full meltdown mode. Trump rightfully labeled them “MS-DNC” because, let’s be honest, they operate more like a Democratic campaign headquarters than a news network. And the best part? Almost no one watches them anymore. Their ratings are circling the drain, and the network’s credibility is right there with them.
Wallace, in particular, is under fire for her disgusting comments about DJ Daniels, the 13-year-old cancer survivor Trump honored during his joint address to Congress. Most Americans saw the moment for what it was: a touching tribute to a brave young man who has faced unthinkable adversity. But not Wallace. Instead, she took the opportunity to twist the moment into some bizarre, partisan jab at Trump supporters, saying she hopes Daniels never has to defend the U.S. Capitol against them and if he does, she hopes he’s not one of the six who loses his life to suicide.
I’m calling on @MSNBC to terminate Nicole Wallace right now…. disgusting for her to say if Lil 13 year old DJ Daniels has to protect the Capitol that he doesn’t commit suicide
OUTRAGEOUS
This boy is fighting for his life.
FIRE NICOLE WALLACE

Let’s just pause for a second. A grown woman, sitting in a cushy TV studio, took a cheap shot at a 13-year-old cancer survivor to score political points. If that doesn’t sum up the state of left-wing media, nothing does. It was classless, nasty, and completely inexcusable. Trump is right—she should be forced to resign. Not just because her comment was disgusting, but because no one in their right mind takes her seriously anymore.
And then there’s Rachel Maddow. Trump didn’t hold back on her either, calling her credibility into question (again, not wrong). Maddow has spent years pushing conspiracy theories, from the Russian collusion hoax to her absurd claims that Trump would never leave office. Now, her influence is crumbling, her ratings are plummeting, and yet MSNBC is reportedly paying her millions to keep rambling into the void. Trump hit the nail on the head: “Nobody watches her anyway.”
Rachel Maddow is an evil witch.
She mocked DJ Daniel, the 13-year-old who has been fighting for his life, just because Trump made him an honorary USSS Agent.
MSNBC needs to issue corrective action immediately! pic.twitter.com/C4wPOE8GGG

MSNBC, for its part, is in full damage-control mode. After former president Rashida Jones stepped down in January, the network has been scrambling to right the ship. Their new leadership has already started axing shows—including The ReidOut and Alex Wagner Tonight—because, shocker, they weren’t drawing an audience. It turns out that screeching about Trump 24/7 isn’t a sustainable business model when people are more concerned about sky-high inflation and the disaster at the border.
President Trump says MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace and Rachel Maddow should be “forced to resign” over their comments about the 13 year old cancer survivor who was honored at his joint address to Congress.

The bottom line is simple: MSNBC is failing because Americans are sick of the propaganda, the bad-faith attacks, and the complete disconnect from reality. Nicolle Wallace and Rachel Maddow aren’t journalists—they’re partisan mouthpieces who wouldn’t know credibility if it smacked them in the face. Trump is right to call them out, and if MSNBC has any shred of dignity left, they’d be wise to send these two packing.
