There are growing calls for MSNBC pundit Nicolle Wallace to be fired for her shocking remarks about suicide and the cancer stricken 13-year-old boy who was honored last night at Trump’s joint address to Congress.

Trump honored 13-year-old Devarjaye DJ Daniel last night by making him an honorary member of the Secret Service. The young cancer patient was elated – it is his life’s dream to become a cop one day.

It was a sweet moment that should have unified politicians and pundits, no matter their hatred of the polarizing president.

But Wallace and fellow MSNBC star Rachel Maddow couldn’t resist the urge to say something negative – even about a young cancer stricken boy.

‘I hope he has a long life as a law enforcement officer – but I hope he never has to defend the United States capitol against Donald Trump‘s supporters…if he does, I hope he isn’t one of the six who loses his life to suicide,’ Wallace said.

Many say it’s a step too far for even MSNBC, a notoriously liberal network where melodramatic musings against Trump are commonplace.

And while the network is yet to make any kind of statement about Wallace’s off-color remarks, viewers are out for blood.

‘I hope he has a long life as a law enforcement officer – but I hope he never has to defend the United States capitol against Donald Trump ‘s supporters,’ Nicolle Wallace said of cancer-stricken Devarjaye ‘DJ’ Danie, before taking it a step further.

‘I’m calling on @MSNBC to terminate Nicolle Wallace right now,’ wrote on user, in a post already viewed more than 100,000 times. ‘Disgusting for her to say.’

‘This chick on MSNBC (Nicolle Wallace) needs to be fired for saying she hopes a 13-year-old cancer patient doesn’t kill himself,’ added another. ‘Like WTF?

‘I call on the firing of Nicolle Wallace,’ said someone else – sentiments shared by at least dozens, most of them right-leaning in their beliefs

‘This is the most repulsive thing I’ve heard uttered from someone’s mouth,’ wrote one such user, who added: ‘Leave the kids alone!’

‘How dare Nicolle Wallace politicize DJ’s situation,’ they raged – with even outspoken Trump critic Meghan McCain weighing in.

‘No one knows better than me how despicable Nicolle Wallace is but this is a new low even by her and msnbc’s standards,’ McCain – who like Wallace worked as a host on The View – wrote

 ‘Using a child with brain cancer to say this. Trash from the gutter.

‘Nicolle Wallace politicizing DJ is textbook disgusting. Should she be fired for this?’ someone else said, ignoring how Maddow also got in on the action – by branding Trump ‘disgusting’ for shining a light on DJ’s more than six-year battle.

‘For the record and this is disgusting, the president made a spectacle out of praising a young man who thus far has survived pediatric cancer, as if the president had something to do with that,’ she said during the segment.

‘This was in the midst of him praising DOGE. DOGE cuts, among other things, have cut off funding for ongoing research into pediatric cancer.’

Daniel, meanwhile, was held up by his father during the ceremony -where he received his badge from Director Sean Curran and Republicans in the House gallery chanted ‘DJ.’

‘He has always dreamed of becoming a police officer,’ Trump said. ‘But in 2018, DJ was diagnosed with brain cancer.’

‘The doctors gave him five months at most to live. That was more than six years ago. Since that time, DJ and his dad have been on a quest to make his dream come true.’

‘And tonight, DJ, we’re going to do you the biggest honor of them all.’

Democrats then went silent as Trump discussed his health policies.

One Republican shouted, ‘MAHA baby!’

DJ had undergone 13 surgeries by the time he was 12 as he battles a rare brain and spine cancer with no cure.

He is trying to get sworn in to as many law enforcement agencies as possible as he and his family try to raise awareness about his condition.

Maddow also got in on the action, calling Trump ‘disgusting’ for shining a light on DJ’s battle.

Trump said during his speech that driving down childhood cancer rates and studying autism cases in the US will be a top priority for his health secretary, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Childhood cancer remains rare in the US, with about 15,000 children diagnosed with the disease every year.

Cases of pediatric cancer have risen in recent years, but treatments have improved, leading to a decline in deaths from the disease.

‘Our goal is to get toxins out of our environment, poisons out of our food supply and keep our children healthy and strong,’ he said.
