On Wednesday, MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace, who has made repeated attacks before on conservatives, described Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett as a “right-wing lunatic.” She also appeared to take a shot at Barrett’s devout Catholic faith by referring to her nomination as a “Hail Mary.”
Prior to her extreme characterization of Barrett, Wallace claimed that it was the GOP that was “afraid that we might reintroduce shame into the political ecosystem,” as Newsbusters pointed out. “But Republicans don’t feel pressure because of the suffering, because people have been suffering for many, many, many months,” said Wallace. “Republicans are afraid that we might reintroduce shame into the political ecosystem.”
She then took aim at Coney Barrett: “And I think that, what I detect in McConnell, is relief. I don’t think McConnell liked working with Donald Trump.
I think he was craven enough to know that he could put whatever judges he wanted on the United States Supreme Court. Just call him up again and say: ‘Hey, do Gorsuch, do Kavanaugh next. And let’s do a Hail Mary with the real right-wing lunatic.’”
On September 26, the day President Trump nominated Coney Barrett to the Court, Wallace immediately went on the attack, and in December 2015, Wallace said Donald Trump was “tapping into the most sinister sentiments in this country.”
