Drexel "Professor" lawyers up after suspension over Trump-bashing

Hates himself for being white
A radical leftist professor at Drexel is claiming victim status because like a wart in one's nether regions, he just won't go away.

George Ciccariello-Maher (I will henceforth call him 'Duh' so I don't have to write his entire annoying name in full) is the guy, you may recall, who tweeted last Christmas: "All I want for Christmas is White Genocide."

Which, in his case, is suicide because he's white and evidently quite self-loathing.

Duh also saw fit to comment on the story in which a First Class passenger aboard an airline gave up his seat to a soldier in uniform. Duh said that he wanted to vomit.

Drexel wrongfully said that Duh's "white genocide" tweet and the others, fall under the category of "protected speech." They said they were not going to discipline him . . . until public pressure changed their little minds. Many potential students said they refused to attend the school after Duh's anti-American racist garbage went onto social media.

When it comes to a job, just like with the NFL, they're wrong. A company has the right to terminate the employment of anyone who threatens the reputation and image of the company, but they are otherwise free to say it.

Now Duh is threatening to take "all necessary legal action" after his suspension that came following his tweet-crapping against "white supremacist patriarchy" after the Las Vegas shooting. The crap weasel told the leftist Washington Post that he's on "administrative leave" following a "smear campaign by conservatives aimed at academics."

But academics can "smear" conservatives and GOP presidents because most professors are liberal and are generally preaching to the choir.

Unless it hurts the school's bottom line.

The chum-brain tenured Duh doesn't blame his suspension on his inflammatory tweets, but on "illegal threats of violence" after Fox News and other outlets wrote stories on his tweets (this blog included), in which he blamed the Las Vegas massacre on "Trumpism" and a "narrative of white victimization."

Doesn't Duh sound a lot like Rachel Dolezal, the white woman of German descent who "identifies" as black?

"The safety of Drexel's students, faculty, professional staff and police officers are of paramount concern to Drexel," university spokeswoman Niki Gianakaris said in a statement. "Due to a growing number of threats directed at Professor George Ciccariello-Maher, and increased concerns about both his safety and the safety of Drexel's community, after careful consideration the University has decided to place Professor Ciccariello-Maher [Duh] on administrative leave. We believe this is a necessary step to ensure the safety of our campus."

Now it's the safety veto, like the ones schools force on conservative speakers like Ben Shapiro and Ann Coulter. But previously, the university said that Duh's tweets "do not represent the university's views."

So now they do.

Duh said Drexel displayed "cowardice" and they send the wrong message by "bowing to pressure from racist internet trolls."

I'd say that anyone making blanket 'white supremacist' accusations might actually be the real racist. And there's no doubt who the 'troll' is in Duh's case.

Trump out tweets himself

MSNBC is about as far left as you can go in media and still pretend to be American. The show Morning Joe with Joe Scarborough and his new sweetheart and bride to be, Mika Brzezinski, have been using President Trump as their private piƱata on an almost daily basis.

The loving couple has gone so far as to call the President of the United States "mentally ill," "crazy," "the greatest liar that's ever sat in the White House," "a schmuck," "he looked like a thug," "he looked like a goon," "an idiot," "what an embarrassment to the United States," "he's Vladimir Putin's hostage," and so on. 

To make matters worse, Scarborough referred to Republicans as "fools." Sounds like he's gotten his hands on the Hillary Clinton campaign playbook.

So Trump tweeted in response to Brzezinski's most recent attack that Trump has a fake Time magazine cover of himself displayed at several of his properties:
"I heard poorly rated @Morning_Joe speaks badly of me (don't watch anymore)."
Next, President Trump gave Joe and Mika new sobriquets and tossed out an insult aimed at Brzezinski's appearance:
"Then how come low I.Q. Crazy Mika, along with Psycho Joe, came to Mar-a-Lago 3 nights in a row around New Year's Eve, and insisted on joining me. She was bleeding badly from a face-lift. I said no!" 
So within minutes, Brzezinski tweeted back with a photo of a Cheerios cereal box with the words: "Made for Little Hands," a reference to the accusation that Trump has unusually small hands and that implies small male anatomy (aka 'junk').

On Thursday's White House press briefing, Sarah Huckabee Sanders had the unpopular task of having to defend Trump's tweeting. I didn't envy her and to be honest, as I've said before, Trump needs to stop tweeting every time he feels attacked, especially when his tweets sound like they're being sent from a schoolyard of a high school.

Yes, we like that Trump is outspoken, uncharacteristic and real. But there should be some degree of presidential decorum. Some degree.

It's so easy to bait Donald Trump--just say something outlandish and you have him responding with double the venom.  

He probably should shut off the TV and get his news from his staff.  This is not a reality TV show.

We need to be honest with how we evaluate President Trump. If he can do no wrong, then we only see him as a charismatic leader. If we see when he's wrong, then we're being realistic.

Sometimes he's really good, sometimes, not so much. 

This is one of the latter times.
