God, Country & the American Story With Billy Hallowell

Comedian Chelsea Handler’s Twitter feed is filled with daily insults, slams and rebuttals to much of what comes from President Donald Trump’s mouth as well as his Twitter account. And that’s fine; she’s entitled to her First Amendment rights.

But there’s one recent tweet in particular that I find profoundly disturbing. A Sept. 21, 2017, message from Handler about Trump and North Korea reads, “Uhhhh. Kim Jung’s letter to @realDonaldTrump is a little bit more sane than @realDonaldTrump. Maybe we trade?”

I get it; Handler is a comedian, but there are a number of reasons why there’s really nothing funny about her tweet.
