Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin took a cheap shot at supporters of President-elect Donald Trump.

In a talk with raging Trump critic George Conway on “Jen Rubin’s Green Room,” the opinion columnist wondered why ABC News would settle in Trump’s defamation lawsuit against them.

“Why would ABC, Disney, the Mouse, who has more money than God, settle with Donald Trump?” Rubin asked, referring to the network’s agreement to pay $15 million to Trump’s presidential foundation in the defamation case.

“I honestly don’t know,” Conway replied.

“I have asked why would ABC, but people ask me all the time, ‘Why is the media so mamsy pamsy?'” Rubin animatedly continued before offering up her theories and insulting Americans.

“They are convinced that if they would just move a little bit to the right, all those MAGA readers out there – now you’ll notice the contradiction there, MAGA readers,” she emphasized to audience laughter, “would pick up the Washington Post and they would have more readers.”

“What is the logical fallacy here?” Rubin continued her pontificating.

“Yes, reader. There is nothing that the Washington Post could possibly do that would have those people take out a subscription,” she declared in her pompous insult of Americans.

Her arrogant insight followed her criticism of the mainstream media for “capitulating” after Trump’s election victory. Rubin continued to denigrate his supporters by sharing that she is “disappointed” and “infuriated with the American people” for voting Trump back into office.

Rubin’s tone-deaf disdain was not well-received on social media where X users raked her over the coals.

This is how you’ll never win again. We’ve had it with people like her.

Brittle old lady is jealous. She’s been insulting her winning opponents and will never get her influence back again.

@JRubinBlogger is both clueless and mean-spirited. The only surprise here is that allegedly reputable news outlets provided her with a platform. That is beyond the comprehension of any thinking person.

I, and 99.7% of the rest of the country don’t read the WP because it’s poorly written propaganda. Is there a reason we should care what this irrelevant hack thinks? At this point we are giving them oxygen simply by acknowledging they exist

I wonder if King Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette were talking about how ignorant The Peasants were right up until the guillotine blade came down?

I have said this over and over;

Their hubris will continue to be their downfall.

And I welcome it with open arms
