Now Hollywood Lib Targeting Don Jr's 4-Year-Old Girl...'We're Coming for Her'

Share

You learn something new every week. For instance, thanks to his sick suggestion that Barron Trump be placed in a cage with pedophiles because of his father’s immigration policies, I learned that Peter Fonda was still alive.

The last time I remembered seeing or hearing anything about the “Easy Rider” star was when a sample from one of his biker movies was used as the intro to Primal Scream’s seminal 1991 track “Loaded.” I would have preferred it would have stayed that way, but que sera sera.

So, after Fonda essentially advocated child rape as an excusable form of retribution for policies you don’t like, surely Hollywood decided, en masse, that it was time to take a step back and reconsider how heated and disgusting their rhetoric had become.

Or one of their ranks could wish the same sick fate upon Donald Trump Jr.’s 4-year-old daughter, one or the other.

Pat Dussault, a Hollywood writer most recently credited for several episodes of Chop Chop Ninja, is coming under fire for his response to Trump Jr. who had criticized Fonda’s sick suggestion that Barron Trump be kidnapped and raped.

“Don’t worry,” Dussault said, according to The Daily Wire, “we’re coming for Chloe too.”

The tweet has since been deleted (because of course it has), and it didn’t take long for the writer to issue an apology.

“I sincerely apologize to Donald Trump Jr & his family for the reckless tweet that I posted earlier today,” Dussault wrote.

Do you think Pat Dussault should be fired?

“My careless words were mine alone, and do not reflect the values or beliefs of any individual or organization associated with me. Overwhelmed by recent events at the US border, I let my emotions get the best of me, and made a failed, totally inappropriate attempt at humor. I was wrong and I am truly sorry.”

Several things here. First, I don’t know if there’s ever any particularly great way to apologize for suggesting that someone’s 4-year-old daughter ought to be raped, but trying to emphasize that it was a “totally inappropriate attempt at humor” isn’t it.

Second, I always love the boilerplate language emphasizing that they’re alone responsible for what they had to say. Was anyone attributing his words to someone else?

Twitter was unamused and unmollified by this.

According to Yahoo Lifestyle, social media users are now pressuring the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, which has provided most of Dussault’s employment, to cut ties with him. Whether or not that happens remains to be seen, but one thing’s for sure: This writer’s 15 minutes of fame are going to be for something truly reprehensible.
