It all started when Chelsea Handler posted an innocuous Valentine’s Day video about a “day in the life of a childless woman.” Tucker Carlson—and his various right-wing minions—were triggered, spending a surprising amount of airtime going after her jokes.
Carlson called Handler an “aging, deeply unlikeable woman who never had kids,” while one of his guests delivered a shockingly misogynist rant calling her a woman whose “womb resembles a dried-up tumbleweed blowing down an old western town, and your Valentine’s date for the tenth year in a row is a ten-year-old copy of ‘Magic Mike’ and a half-full bottle of Xanax, and you’re trying to pretend like you’re happy, but you’re not happy.”
Ben Shapiro, meanwhile, said it’s “written all over her face how miserable she is.”
