After signing his latest batch of executive orders in the Oval Office, President Donald Trump declared Thursday afternoon that deranged, poisonous MSNBC hosts Rachel Maddow and Nicolle Wallace should be forced to resign for their “disgraceful” comments smearing 13-year-old brain cancer patient and Trump speech guest DJ Daniel.
On Tuesday night, Maddow labeled it “disgusting” Trump invited and recognized Daniel while Wallace said that Daniel — who dreams of becoming a police officer and Trump made an honorary Secret Service agent — doesn’t die by suicide like police officers did after the events of January 6, 2021.
Breitbart’s Nick Gilbertson asked the question that prompted this response: “[W]e saw Democrats behavior during your joint address to Congress. Do you think it shows just how out of touch they are with the American people, especially given that 79 percent, according to a CBS poll, approved of your — of your speech?”
After a brief back-and-forth of Gilbertson introducing himself to Trump, he said Tuesday’s chicanery “was very embarrassing for the Democrats what happened the other night, and that’s not said for any other reason other than it’s obvious.”
Trump noted “even CNN fake news said that,” but “wors[e] than CNN is MSDNC, which is the worst and the good news is very few people watch them anymore.”
He then turned first to Wallace, whom this space has repeatedly dubbed the host of Rich, White, Liberal, Wine Mom Story Hour (aka Deadline: White House): “They have lost such credibility. Frankly, what Nicolle Wallace said, I’ve never been a fan of hers, but — and she’s not very talented, but I’ll tell you what she said the other day about that young man is disgraceful. She should be forced to resign[.]”
Maddow wasn’t spared either as Trump invoked her new, $25-million-a-year salary:
Rachel Maddow should be forced to resign. Nobody watches her anyway. I don’t know if — it’s not possible they pay her as much money as I hear, but certainly she’s lost all credibility, both of them, but what they — what they said the other day, they should be forced to resign about that young person, who is — who is suffering greatly.

White House executive order signing
March 6, 2025
Time N/ANICK GILBERTSON: This is a follow up. The other night, you know, we saw Democrats behavior during your joint address to Congress.
PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: Yeah.
GILBERTSON: Do you think it shows just how out of touch they are with the American people, especially given that 79 percent, according to a CBS poll, approved of your — of your speech?
TRUMP: I love this guy. Who are you with?
GILBERTSON: My name is Nick Gilbertson with Breitbart News.
TRUMP: I see. I really liked your questions.
GILBERTSON: Thank you very much, Mr. President
LUKE BROADWATER: Sir, regarding the executive orders —
TRUMP: The answer is — just — Nick, to — and I know your name very well. Good job, you do.
GILBERTSON: Thank you.
TRUMP: Yeah, the answer is, I thought it was very embarrassing for the Democrats what happened the other night, and that’s not said for any other reason other than it’s obvious. It’s a fact. Even — even CNN fake news said that. They came out and they said it. And worst than CNN is MSDNC, which is the worst and the good news is very few people watch them anymore. They have lost such credibility. Frankly, what Nicolle Wallace said, I’ve never been a fan of hers, but — and she’s not very talented, but I’ll tell you what she said the other day about that young man is disgraceful. She should be forced to resign, and Rachel Maddow should be forced to resign. Nobody watches her anyway. I don’t know if — it’s not possible they pay her as much money as I hear, but certainly she’s lost all credibility, both of them, but what they — what they said the other day, they should be forced to resign about that young person, who is — who is suffering greatly. Thank you, Nick.
