The mocking of the Chelsea Clinton "photoshopped" tweet

This is a great example of what annoys me about political discourse these days. I'm no fan of Chelsea Clinton obviously but the fake derisiveness to her tweet about asking if the Abraham Lincoln in a MAGA hat was Photoshopped is absurd.
So many on the right are pretending that Chelsea didn't know that Lincoln never wore a MAGA hat. So dumb - she clearly meant she hoped that the 2017 GOP FL event wasn't actually using that image as their logo and programme cover.
It's shite like this that makes it difficult to have an adult conversation. The left did it constantly with Trump (ex: when he JOKINGLy asked Russia to "please hack Hillary's 33,000 emails and the femmes in MSM needed fainting couches).
Sick of it.

There's some evidence that this is correct - she has two high achieving parents and she has literally no success of her own. But the reaction to this tweet from the right makes us all dumber

Na, she's still an idiot regardless.

My problem with Chelsea Clinton is that she's a totally overrated (by the Left) glob of nothingness who only has a "voice" because of who her Dad is. She and Ivanka made a pact not to attack the other person's parent/presidential candidate during the election.
Guess which one broke their promise?

guess what? stuff like idiots calling her out when they're the ones being the actual idiots just raises her profile, galvanizes support for her on the left, and gets her some nice Streisand Effect air time
so you should have them a lot right now

One high achieving parent, the other rode his coattails to prominence. Otherwise, she would be a nondescript lawyer in a Chicago firm.

I didn't even comment about the "hat controversy," you stupid bitch. That woman is a complete joke. The older Trump kids are 10X more impressive than her, although you're probably too stupid to make that assessment.

that is irrelevant
i said you should have (meant "hate") them for this controversy b/c it's raising her profile (which you stated you hate)

I don't care whether Chelsea Clinton gets any attention or not. She's much worse than even her mother, in the sense that she always makes NEGATIVE impressions on people. If she were Trump's daughter, the media & left-wing loons would've destroyed her by now.

Settle down Francis.

I read it as a funny interpretation of her shock and outrage of a MAGA hat picture...its not some unforgivable offense like drawing Mohammed.
Anywho, internet trolls are going to internet troll and find their lulz. Not a big deal either way, IMO. This doesn't seem like the hill to die on for internet decency or discourse, or whatever. Chelsea is an empty suit, not really a big deal if she generates a few laughs from her inane statement being taken out of context.

I'm with you on this - as much as I viscerally hate HRC and almost all other DEM leadership, I have come to their defense many times when this kind of shite was pumped.
I do NOT want my conservative leaning associates acting like the people I really hate.
It is OK to make a joke about it - but to try and carry the issue further than that is misguided and dilutes whatever credibility one has mustered.

Maybe I spent too much time enjoying the weather outdoors this weekend, but who aside from random twitter users like "Tyler Conway" are carrying the issue beyond joking about it? Is this a big story somewhere?
Odd to me that this is where the line is drawn, especially from our mate Sir Winston.

The Liberal media I follow makes fun of her. She sucks.
