Shine's Wife Defends Anti-Vaccine Conspiracies and Racist Rhetoric: Media Made Me Look Like...

Bill Shine’s Wife Defends Anti-Vaccine Conspiracies and Racist Rhetoric: Media Made Me Look Like ‘Crazed Lunatic’

by Caleb Ecarma | Jul 27th, 2018, 4:07 pm

The wife of White House communications chief Bill Shine appeared on a radio show today to double down on her anti-vaccination conspiracies and racially charged rhetoric.

Darla Shine suggested to host Robert Scott Bell that the “left” media ran a smear campaign to make her look like a “crazed lunatic.”

Darla Shine, whose inflammatory comments include her claiming “1 out of 10 black boys has autism,” demanding “young black boys do the right thing,” and mocking African countries via a racist meme, issued a blanket defense of her opinions and did not apologize:

“I had my radio show from 2006 to 2010, after I wrote my book… So after I had this radio show on a hundred station, Don was with me, there wasn’t one complaint. Everyone loved the show, everyone loved me… I mixed it with some humor, because you can’t always be serious, and my style is to be a political satirist. And I’m laughing because they’re digging into shows from 2007, you know podcasts, where I was joking around — I did a whole podcast, a three hour podcast, and I was talking about how women are hormonal, so these girls who work for me we were all fighting in the office, and joking about the time of month. And this is all funny stuff, right? And then I was also talking about women have to be careful going into politics because we’re hormonal. I’m voting for Hillary Clinton. I have to walk away from this insanity, Robert. I cannot believe that the left has gone out of there way to make me look like this crazed lunatic conspiracy theorist. Why all of a sudden now?”

They seriously expect to be left to peddle their hate and bullshit without any pushback, then whine and blame someone else for the fallout from their bad life choices. Nope, doesn't work that way.

Because your shitstain of a husband, the man you share your bed with (presumably) has decided he wants to be somebody. And for all the "funny" stuff you claim you were saying, do you ever laugh? Or are you like Donald Trump, who never laughs, but is always kidding around when one of his stupid pronouncements blows up in his face?
