Williams was desperately trying to marginalize the protest by pretending to be all breathless and shocked that speakers and those attending the protestd used actual profanity. He was totally upset that Madonna referred to Trump as a "dick" on live TV and proclaimed that now the whole protest movement is dead and people would be turned off by hearing bad words. He declared no one would pay any attention to them now.
He asked Lawrence O'Donnell to comment, clearly expecting to get his agreement that the protests were dead now because naughty words were spoken aloud. Lawrence laughed at him and then cleaned his clock. He said all protests are like that, and today's so called bad words are heard on regular TV shows all the time, and no one needs smelling salts anymore.
Brian Williams, the old fogey, could be heard sputtering impotently as his whole argument disintegrated.

(7,770 posts)calling all Mexicans rapists is fine? And saying he grabs women's pussies is fine? And saying......all bets are off-all human decency is off until Trump is gone. Get with 2017! The future is here and it's revolting. So free speech is all we have at the moment.

(15,805 posts)And to our detractors who insist that this march will never add up to anything, f*ck you, f*ck you. It is the beginning, she continued before being cut off with the MSNBC ... Later, Madonna called Donald Trump a dick which resulted in the feed once again being cut.

But, Madonna being Madonna, she went for the ego-feeding, attention-starved headline grab, rather than thinking about effective strategy and messaging.
