Remorseless MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace returns to the air after ‘shameful’ jab at cancer stricken boy

MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace returned to the air Wednesday and refused to address growing calls for her to be fired after she made vile remarks about a 13-year-old boy suffering from brain cancer.

Remorseless Wallace continued bashing President Donald Trump, while ignoring the harsh backlash she received after she brought up ‘suicide’ into a discussion with fellow MSNBC star Rachel Maddow about the sick teenager.

Trump honored Devarjaye DJ Daniel during his address to Congress Tuesday night by making him an honorary member of the Secret Service. The young cancer patient was elated – it is his life’s dream to become a cop one day.

Soon after he was awarded, Wallace and Maddow couldn’t resist the urge to say something negative – even about a young cancer stricken boy.

‘I hope he’s alive for another 95 years and I hope he lives the life he wants to live. He wants to be a cop, he knows what he wants to do and maybe when you have childhood cancer that crystallizes for you,’ Wallace began.

The anchor then managed a pivot to the Capitol riot that took place on January 6, 2021.

‘I hope he has a long life as a law enforcement officer – but I hope he never has to defend the United States capitol against Donald Trump’s supporters…if he does, I hope he isn’t one of the six who loses his life to suicide,’ Wallace said.

Many quickly reacted, saying it’s a step too far even for MSNBC, a notoriously liberal network where melodramatic musings against Trump are commonplace.

And while the network or Wallace have yet to make any kind of statement about her off-color remarks, viewers are out for blood.

MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace carried on business as usual on Wednesday, despite the growing calls for her to be fired after she made vile remarks about a 13-year-old boy suffering from brain cancer who was hailed by President Donald Trump

‘@MSNBC fire Nicole Wallace!!!!,’ one user wrote, while another added: ‘Nicolle Wallace is one twisted and hateful demon. She should be booted off MSNBC.’

‘This chick on MSNBC (Nicolle Wallace) needs to be fired for saying she hopes a 13-year-old cancer patient doesn’t kill himself,’ added another. ‘Like WTF?’

‘I call on the firing of Nicolle Wallace,’ said someone else – sentiments shared by at least dozens, most of them right-leaning in their beliefs.

‘This is the most repulsive thing I’ve heard uttered from someone’s mouth,’ wrote one such user, who added: ‘Leave the kids alone!’

Wallace also said she hopes the teenager doesn’t have to ‘testify against the people who carried out acts of seditious conspiracy and then lives to see Donald Trump pardon those people.’

Maddow, appearing to hold back tears, objected to Daniel’s use by the president in the first place.

‘For the record and this is disgusting, the president made a spectacle out of praising a young man who thus far has survived pediatric cancer, as if the president had something to do with that,’ she said.

The point she was trying to make was that she believed Trump somehow credited himself for helping Daniel survive.

MSNBC hosts slams DJ Daniels moment over cancer fund cuts, January 6

‘This was in the midst of him praising DOGE. DOGE cuts, among other things, have cut off funding for ongoing research into pediatric cancer.’

It was similar to how Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib held up a whiteboard that read, ‘You cut cancer research.’

Daniel had undergone 13 surgeries by the time he was 12 as he battles a rare brain and spine cancer with no cure.

He is trying to get sworn in to as many law enforcement agencies as possible as he and his family try to raise awareness about his condition.

At the time of his 2018 diagnosis, he was told he would likely only live another five months.

He was held up by his father for the touching moment as he received his badge from Director Sean Curran and Republicans in the House gallery chanted his nickname,  ‘DJ.’

On Wednesday Daniel and his family joined Trump in the Oval Office (pictured)

‘He has always dreamed of becoming a police officer,’ Trump said. ‘But in 2018, DJ was diagnosed with brain cancer.’

‘The doctors gave him five months at most to live. 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.’

‘And tonight, DJ, we’re going to do you the biggest honor of them all.’

Democrats then went silent as Trump discussed his health policies.

One Republican shouted, ‘MAHA baby!’

On Wednesday, Daniels and his family joined Trump in the Oval Office and hugged the president.

‘That was a big evening last night,’ Trump said to them as he shook Daniel’s father’s hand.

Trump said during his speech that driving down childhood cancer rates and studying autism cases in the US will be a top priority for his health secretary, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Childhood cancer remains rare in the US, with about 15,000 children diagnosed with the disease every year.

Cases of pediatric cancer have risen in recent years, but treatments have improved, leading to a decline in deaths from the disease.

‘Our goal is to get toxins out of our environment, poisons out of our food supply and keep our children healthy and strong,’ he said.
