CNN commentator Sally Kohn is widely seen a “progressive” warrior, which comes in handy because it takes a real warrior spirit to defend sharia law.
…which is precisely what Kohn did on Tuesday in her haste to throw shade at Donald Trump.
Hey @realDonaldTrump, many *progressive Muslims* — the ones we should support in ideological fight against extremism — believe in Sharia!!
— Sally Kohn (@sallykohn) August 16, 2016
For a quick refresher, sharia law is the 7th century edict that calls for beheadings, stoning women and the amputation of limbs. It also never abolished slavery and even regulates sexual slavery.
All of which makes it odd that Kohn, who is openly gay — sharia mandates that homosexuals be killed — would embarrass herself by defending the codified principles of the Islamic faith.
As anticipated, the reaction on social media was not very forgiving of Kohn’s insanity… here’s a sampling of responses from Twitter:

One wonders what ‘progressive’ aspects of Sharia law @sallykohn finds attractive. @realDonaldTrump

@Coondawg68 I’m convinced that hers is a parody account

@Coondawg68 @FACTSoverFEELS @sallykohn @realDonaldTrump The liberal mind is a complicated maze of conflicting and nonsensical ideas.

@Coondawg68 @sallykohn @realDonaldTrump The “moderate” Muslims who don’t actually throw homosexuals from the roof. They just watch & cheer.

@sallykohn As a lesbian, you would be put to death under Sharia. Why would you support such an ideology. #HYPOCRITE @realDonaldTrump

@xMOLONLABEx @sallykohn @realDonaldTrump you think she has a death wish???

@sallykohn @realDonaldTrump let me know how Sharia treats gays and get back to me about how much you love it.
— Ayn Rand Paul (@McCarthyKnew) August 16, 2016
Apparently @sallykohn thinks Sharia is a progressive and forward thinking ideology. Great hire there, @CNN Top notch. ??

There is nothing “progressive” about Sharia Law. That should be readily apparent to any thinking person. https://t.co/QoXuhRJtSq

@mckelvey_ian In fairness, Sharia law says not to kill homosexuals who repent and cease their vile behavior. So @SallyKohn MIGHT survive,

@mckelvey_ian Never confuse @sallykohn with a thinking person.

@sallykohn The problem = Sharia DOESNT follow the principles of our Constitution. @realDonaldTrump
