David and Nancy French learn all about irony, the alt-right way.

Courtesy of TPM: 

David French, a columnist for National Review, and his wife Nancy French, a columnist for the Washington Post, have come under what French called “an unending torrent of abuse that I wouldn’t wish on anyone” in a column published Friday. He describes how, more than a year ago, he began seeing images of his daughter’s face photoshopped into gas chambers or slave ships, and how the comment section of his wife’s blog on Patheos filled with images of extreme violence. 

French’s adopted daughter is black and was called “niglet” and “dindu” by French’s online harassers, who also claimed his wife cheated on him with black men while he was deployed to Iraq. It's a common charge among far-right internet trolls who often accuse others of being cuckolded, both sexually and ideologically. 

French recounts how, immediately after he declined to mount an independent run for president, his wife received an email from a Trump supporter “who informed her that he knew the business end of a gun and told her directly that she should shut her mouth or he’d take action.” In another incident, French wrote that a phone call between his wife and her elderly father was interrupted by a third angry voice on the call, spurring “a brief, anxious search inside my father-in-law’s home for a potential intruder and yet another call to law enforcement.”

This is how French ends his National Review article 

Two weeks ago Nancy and I were enjoying lunch with friends after church. My son’s football coach asked if “things had calmed down” after the tumult of the summer. I grabbed my phone, said “let’s see,” and opened my Twitter mentions. I laughed at the first one, a standard profane rant calling me a traitor for opposing Trump, but when my wife looked, her face twisted up in shock. There they were, just below, more tweets from more men, aimed directly at her. She burst into tears. 

So, no, things have not “calmed down,” and I’m always amused when people tell me that I belong to Never Trump because it makes me feel good about myself. There’s nothing that gives me pleasure about this election season. But if I can do anything to expose and oppose this latest debasement of our politics and culture, and to defend my wife and daughter, then at least I will have purpose.

Look I don't think it is okay for ANYBODY to be treated in this manner.

But it hard to feel sympathy for somebody who had no problem supporting the beta version of Trump, but then acts terrified to see who supports Sarah Palin 2.0.

In many ways Nancy French was instrumental in helping Sarah Palin expand her brand and fire up the very same group of right wing nutjobs who are currently suggesting that she be burned at the stake.

Nancy French helped to put the words in Palin's mouth that her knuckle dragging fans found so inspiring, and even helped her wayward daughter attempt to repair her reputation by writing a book accusing Levi Johnston of rape.

I wonder if she ever lost any sleep at the notion of his face "twisting up in shock" at reading those words?

You know there is a passage from a widely discredited book that I once read, I think it went a little something like this:

Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, this he will also reap.

The reaping part is always a bitch, don't you think?

    I read his column today and have to admit that I do not feel sorry for them. He was going to run himself, wasn't he? Another non-educated inexperienced "Christian" who finds it all well and good to criticize Democrats, but when someone is being nasty to him? Oh dear. Oh dear. Where will he turn now? The hateful "Christian coalition" he and Nancy helped build, is turning on him. He might find out that Democrats are decent folks with the best interests of everyone in mind, not just the pre-born and white males.

    Gryph, I read the French's post in NRO yesterday and was hoping you'd write about. Very little sympathy here either - I think it's a case of chickens coming home to roost.

  4. Too bad for them. Yeah, yeah, karma's a bitch...

    Here is what the alt-right/new ass-for-Jesus acquaintance I used to know now says about Trump:

    "He never said he was perfect."

    This is all they have as an excuse for his wall-to-wall crap fest. Sad.

    We don't want perfect candidates, we sane people want authentic, sometimes failing, human beings, ones who realize they are sexual predators, racists, cheaters, adulterers, narcissistic liars, etc., etc., etc. who don't run for any office, in the first place.

    Self-awareness and self-control -- basic attributes for the Presidency. Friggin' BASIC! How is this not understood by 30 million (!) Americans? 'cause they don't have any so don't understand them as important, I guess.

His intuition is better than anyone I have seen in a long time. I don't think you realize how close to the cliff our country is. The best thing I can do for you is to pray for you daily (which I will). Jesus warned us abou these times. I shall not war with you or take part in angry discourses. Goodbye, Barbara !!!"

      Hillary supporters treated us Bernie supporters like crap from the get-go. It wasn't until we found out that the Democratic party supported Hillary and not Bernie that we all realized the truth; when DWS had to step down and then, what, of course get a job working for Hillary did we all realize that the American "two party" system is insurmountable.

      That being said, all of us Independents were for Bernie regardless if he sold his soul to run as a Dem. We still appreciate him and all he stood for and will vote appropriately.

    3. Anonymous4:25 PM

      2:21 Not sure 'two party' is insurmountable but it will take a stronger showing from those who claim they have a better way to run the government. There is an "Independent Party". It's just not strong enough or large enough yet. Similar for Palin's attempt to run her tea party bots as a legitimate party. She didn't sell her wares very well.

      Bernie Sanders came to the Democrat party to challenge another Democrat with a larger base. I don't know why anyone would assume the two factions would be lovey-dovey anymore than we would be BFFs with any of the Repug supporters. It's just one of those silly 'opponent' things.
      Rude words and rude behavior came from ALL sides, including the Bernie side.

      So your chosen candidate lost. Now what. It's certainly your choice as it should be. But like in baseball, whining is a silly option.

  11. Best summation of Trump's character ever. 8 minutes.
    The constitution says he need not concede; it just doesn't matter. It is only a tradition.
    The founding fathers thought of everything.

    If he doesn't, it will show conclusively he has no respect for anybody or anything, including democracy and he will become a dirty footnote in the history of American presidential candidates, in the face of a black president and a woman president.

    Lawrence does not think his followers will rise up because they are losers and will inevitably turn on Trump who did not deliver on his promises.

    I'd like to go with that assessment and sleep better at night.

    I always thought that helping Bristol accuse Levi of rape was about the lowest thing a human could do. It harmed Levi and it harmed Tripp (who will read the book someday). If Bristol was too narcissitic and immature to see that, Nancy was not. She was, technically, the adult in the room. She should have told Bristol that if this is what she is determined to do she would need to find a new ghostwriter because she would have no part in it. It is hard (but I will try) to feel sorry for her now.

    With that said - - -
    Consider the support Nancy has given to the Palins. Writing worthless books for them and constantly posting for them. (She was able to formulate a coherent sentence and Sarah and Bristol could not). How much money do you suppose the French family garnered from SarahPAC and were not at all concerned about the disgusting things Nancy was creating for the benefit of the Palin family? When did Nancy and David develop a conscience? Was it when the funds from Palin dried up or did they have an epiphany?
    I am not a vicious person and certainly do not derive pleasure in the problems of others - but in this case - what the heck were they thinking all of this time???

    I can't believe I'm watching Fox News right now. It's the only channel I could find that is showing Hillary's live speech in entirety. Unbelievable!

    The same people who are harassing them are the same people who support Palin. The same people the French's worked with and worked for.

    Schadenfreude anyone?

    Didn't Bristol, with Nancy French's help, criticize the Obama girls several times on her Patheos blog? Where was the line drawn from the French's to NOT bring children of politicians into their arguments? Now Nancy French feels what it's like to have her family threatened, something that the Obama's endured for the past 8 years.

    I wonder if either David or Nancy French have ever denounced the Obama Birther conspiracy and Trumps part in it at any time prior to Trumps' candidacy. Did either of them denounce Trump when he endorsed Romney in 2012?

    Oh, how I miss those post church brunches, but I digress. You sleep with dogs, you wake up with fleas, poor Nancy's crying now, but she was whistling dixie on pay day while under the employ of Sarah Bristol, and whatever personality showed up that day.
    Wanna be taken seriously as a writer? Don't ghostwrite for stupid. When your daughter grows up and sees the videos and words Sarah used about african americans, how will you explain it to her? Run to Costco and get the huge box of kleenex and start sowing. You defend the undefendable, as if we believe Sarah tells Piper to "shuck and jive".

    When one sits there and creates an explosive situation and makes their living by making it more and more volatile day after day
    ...it's difficult for me to feel pity when it finally and inevitably blows up in their own face.

    Chickens => Roost.

    So, all of a sudden David French, ultra-conservative Christianist and spouse of mercenary Palin family ghostwriter/mouthpiece Nancy French is whining about internet trolls. Oh, right, they're bothering *you* now. As Donald would disingenuously say, "Sad!"

    French wrote: "The formula is simple: Criticize Trump — especially his connection to the alt-right — and the backlash will come."

    Let's fix that: Criticize *Palin*, and the backlash will come. E.g., death threats and vile slurs against Gryphen, efforts to get him fired from his job, and endless harrassment. Not to mention what happened to Audrey as well as other original Trig Truthers, Joe "Pedophile" McGinniss, Levi "Rapist" Johnston, Shailey "Wackjob" Tripp, opponents in Alaska, et al.

    This originated with Sarah Palin, whom the Frenches have supported and financially benefited from for eight years. And there's a direct line from Palin to Trump. Of course it's awful that the French family is being subjected to this, but jeez: You're reaping what you sowed, folks.

    Nancy French has incited hate for liberals for years and fan the flames for Palin as Bristols social media and book ghostwriter. No one feels sorry for her. She helped cause this.

Don't feed the trolls!
It just goes directly to their thighs.
