Katherine Timpf was not on the Trump train

As the TV personality summarized, “Trump’s comment didn’t provoke meaningful conversation, nor was it consequential enough to ever come close to harming one of the most respected and talented people in television news.” In a follow-up piece, published after the election, Timpf acknowledged that, to certain people, Trump might seem like a bastion of free speech. However, she argued, although the then-president was decrying America for being too politically correct, when he is “also flippantly tweeting about taking people’s citizenship away for burning flags, can we really be so sure?” 

Clearly, the outspoken libertarian requires slightly more convincing that Trump is the savior conservative America has painted him as.
