As plenty of conservatives predicted Monday, there would be all sorts of charges of them pouncing on a Daily Mail story about Malia Obama enjoying a bottle of wine with some friends and having a secret anti-Trump Facebook page.
And the progressives did not disappoint. Conservatives who ignored Brett Kavanaugh getting blackout drunk in high school and sexually assaulting girls were “frothing at the mouth” over Malia Obama having some rosé just shy of her 21st birthday.
We already compiled a bunch of tweets in another post, but seeing as Ana Navarro is a Republican strategist of some sort, it really stings for her to put her fellow conservatives to shame. And yes, she filled out her BINGO card with a reference to Kavanaugh.
To those hating on Malia Obama for sharing a bottle of rosé, in FL this weekend, just shy of being 21:
-Guy on SCOTUS drank himself into oblivion in high school;
-Guy in White House goes to FL most weekends, on taxpayer $;
-Malia’s a private citizen w/good taste in wine. So what?— Ana Navarro (@ananavarro) February 19, 2019
Name those hating on her, liar.

Seriously, name some names. Heck, name one name, preferably someone with more than 8 followers.
Has anyone seen these mythical people hating on Ms. Obama? https://t.co/Iryik7xSeB

Name names Ana!

I think they edit the Daily Mail?
— Mike Madden (@MikeMadden) February 19, 2019
Yeah, the far-right Daily Mail broke the story.
Apparently John Wayne also tweeted his disgust about it tbh

Narrator: Nobody is hating on Malia Obama.

Literally the only reason I know about it is because of this tweet.
— Timothy (@Timmyjonjones) February 19, 2019
This is the first time I've seen anything about Malia and wine. Not sure where you're getting people "hating" on her for it.
Oh and Guy in White House doesn't take a paycheck and stays at his own home.
Don't recall you commenting on Air Pelosi every weekend either.

Show those screenshots, Ann.

I have seen exactly zero people hating on Malia for drinking. I have not heard of anyone else hearing of this either.
You are manufacturing this out of thin air.
— MSNBC loves war (@thechrisraines) February 19, 2019
Can you provide one example of anyone commenting on this story other than to say it is a non story? Everyone seems to agree this is stupid, harmless, and out of bounds. Who is outraged?
— Scott Ellerin (@ScottEllerin) February 19, 2019
No one really seems to care. I have seen way more outrage about the perceived outrage.
— Jason Crouch (@jasoncrouch) February 19, 2019
We are now next-level fake outrage, where we get outraged by outrages that haven't happened.
— Michael Butler (@mikeyinhouston) February 19, 2019
I just saw an ocean of sympathy for her. I probably missed the imaginary guys with blue check marks piling on the kid.
— Ysais Martinez (@MartinezYsais) February 19, 2019
And they yelled “This is MAGA country” as they hit the post button.

We see what you did there.
— Joe Average (@AverageJoe063) February 19, 2019
Totally agree; but scrolling down, literally the only tweets I'm seeing are ones saying this is ok and conservatives are awful for being outraged; somehow I'm completely missing the outrage posts.
— George Stanley (@GStanley1966) February 19, 2019
Haven't seen one thing on it.
— Let's Go O-Range! (@Watertowerjoey) February 19, 2019
Who? Please list ANY blue check marks legit making a fuss. I follow many and have seen zero.
— Steve Thompson (@spanarkel) February 19, 2019
I've literally seen nothing but 1) Republicans saying everyone should leave her alone, and 2) Democrats yelling at Republicans who are leaving her alone to leave her alone.
— MidasRex (@MidasRex1998) February 19, 2019
Just for the record, these are from Monday night:
My timeline is 99% people saying the Malia Obama stuff is not news and shouldn’t be in the news.
By tomorrow, places like Raw Story and ThinkProgress will have articles saying that conservatives attacked her.
— RBe (@RBPundit) February 18, 2019
Since all I see is conservatives tweeting "leave Malia Obama" alone, I can rest assured there will be numerous "conservative outrage" stories tomorrow about whatever controversy this is in reference to.
— Jason Howerton (@jason_howerton) February 19, 2019
Thanks for playing, Ana.
