Jimmy Kimmel Writer Bess Kalb Mocks ‘Snowflake’ Trump for Blocking Her on Twitter
“Jimmy Kimmel Live” and New Yorker writer Bess Kalb was one of the many who took shots at Donald Trump’s latest tweets. But she was shocked to discover the president of the United States blocked her Twitter account, apparently in response.
“”Oh boy, honey. I’ve tried to lay off and let you be president like you said you would, but this is a new kind of simplistic rhetoric,” she said in the tweets that got her blocked. “I know you’re trying to pivot away from how embarrassing the big trip was for all of us to watch (Pushing! Pope! Saudi bowling!) but….this? Honestly, hun, this is all so far over your head. If you need to have another ‘bone spur’ and let Mike take over, no one will blame you.”

Once she discovered she had been blocked, she accused him of being too delicate to handle criticism — using the word “Snowflake,” an insult conservatives lob at liberals they consider oversensitive.
From now on, there is only one Snowflake.

It is mortifying, yet unsurprising to me that the leader of the free world could be so wounded by the gentle ribbing of a comedy writer.

And if I could talk to him now I’d tell him: “Donald, sticks and stones may break your bones but articles of impeachment will harm you.”

And, honestly, he just lost my vote.

For the official record, here’s the straw that broke the camel’s back. Kalb out. pic.twitter.com/piv7T5wCC3

Kalb capped off her jokes with an “official press statement” on Instagram, which consisted of her trying to explain Trump’s block to her two sleeping cats.
No mother should have to explain the President blocking her to her garbage sons.
