Democrat strategist Jessica Tarlov says she gets emotional when she sees President Donald Trump’s social media posts about her. She has an irrational fear that Trump could get her fired from The Five on Fox News. Seriously, if he could do that, Tarlov would have been let go ages ago. She says some of his posts make her tear up.

Jessica Tarlov says Trump's attacks on her make her cry.
The New Yorker's David Reminick:
"He wrote this: 'Why does Fox News allow failed TV personality Jessica Tarlov to soil The Five? Her voice, her manner, and above all else what she says are a disgrace to television broadcasting.'"
"When you read that on Truth Social, do you feel terrible — or do you go, 'I like that'?"
Tarlov: "I feel terrible ... I'm mostly in tears about it. Not that one in particular ... What really gets to me is threatening my job."
Clearly Trump has not caused Tarlov to be fired.
And if anything, he has likely boosted her profile.
I take no pleasure in Tarlov crying — but Trump's roasts are hilarious.

Here’s a tissue anyway, Jessica.
Posters say Tarlov has been treating Trump like trash for years. They say turnabout is fair play.
She speaks about him like he is vermin but she can't take it?

So she can dish it out, but she can’t take it… my crew calls this weak, very weak. She’s not cut out for the big leagues if she can’t take it when people don’t like her.

The same folks that dish criticism about Trump and MAGA, for 10 yrs 24/7, somehow are not very good at taking incoming return

“If you can’t take it, then don’t dish it out”.
Trump engages with the media, and pushes back on them all the time. It seems like Tarlov thinks she should be an exception.
Some commenters say they would be fine with her leaving Fox News. Others say she serves a valuable purpose on The Five.
She’s a political activist, not a journalist, her voice, her manner, and what she says are other reasons Fox News need to part ways with her. pic.twitter.com/5pnKyzjyoI

Keep her on.

She exposes the insanity of the left, as Juan and Geraldo used to, they just could not take being called out by Greg for their insanity.
Better to keep her; she’s a great foil for Greg Gutfeld and the rest. But they should keep some tissues on the desk in case she reads Trump's online posts during the show.
