Far-left MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace has sparked outrage after cruelly mocking 13-year-old DJ Daniel, a child battling brain cancer who was recently honored by President Trump with an honorary appointment to the Secret Service. Wallace’s heartless comments have not only drawn fierce condemnation—including from President Trump himself—but have also coincided with a massive drop in her ratings.
During a segment on her failing show *Deadline: White House*, Wallace sarcastically sneered, “I hope he has a long life as a law enforcement officer. But I hope he never has to defend the U.S. Capitol against Donald Trump’s supporters. And if he does, I hope he isn’t one of the six who loses his life to suicide. And I hope he isn’t one who has to testify against the ones who carried out acts of seditious conspiracy and lived to see Donald Trump pardon those people.”
The shocking remarks were met with immediate backlash. President Trump, never one to hold back, blasted Wallace for her callousness. “Frankly, what Nicolle Wallace said—I’ve never been a fan of hers, and she’s not very talented—but I will tell you what she said the other day about the young man is disgraceful. She should be forced to resign,” he declared.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt also took aim at the leftist media’s obsession with attacking Trump at any cost, saying, “Last night, MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace disgustingly looped in a 13-year-old boy with brain cancer into an attack on the president over January 6. It’s sad and frankly pathetic that Democrats and liberals in the legacy media continue to allow their hatred for the president to override their love for our country.”
Wallace’s cruel comments haven’t just outraged conservatives—they’ve also contributed to a devastating ratings collapse. Once attracting an average of 1.6 million viewers before the election, *Deadline: White House* has now cratered by over 35%, plummeting to just 93,000 daily viewers. Meanwhile, Fox News continues to dominate, with a staggering 3.6 million viewers in the same time slot.
But Wallace wasn’t the only MSNBC figure to take aim at young DJ Daniel. Radical leftist Rachel Maddow also attacked Trump for honoring the child, claiming, “For the record, and this is disgusting, the President made a spectacle out of praising a young man who thus far survived pediatric cancer, as if the President had something to do with that.” Maddow then falsely accused Trump of cutting funding for pediatric cancer research, though she failed to provide any evidence for her claim.
DJ Daniel’s father, Theodis Daniel, fired back at the MSNBC smear merchants. Speaking to *The New York Post*, he didn’t mince words: “She needs to shut her mouth if she has nothing nice to say.” He added, “This lady didn’t even serve time in the military.”
During his speech, President Trump highlighted DJ’s incredible journey. “Joining us in the gallery tonight is a young man who truly loves our police. His name is DJ Daniel. He is 13 years old and he has always dreamed of becoming a police officer. But in 2018, DJ was diagnosed with brain cancer. The doctors gave him five months at most to live,” Trump said. “That was more than six years ago. Since that time, DJ and his dad have been on a quest to make his dream come true.”
Trump’s honoring of DJ Daniel was a beautiful moment, showcasing the resilience and strength of an American child who refuses to give up. But for the bitter, Trump-obsessed left-wing media, even a sick child is fair game in their relentless crusade against the President.
As MSNBC continues to hemorrhage viewers and credibility, one thing is clear—America is watching, and they are rejecting the left’s toxic, hateful agenda.
