It bothers a lot of lefties who continue call Trump vulgar for using it while ignoring that one of their own used it toward one of their own.
How do you know they don't care if NPR said it? When did he even say it?
It's pretty easy to separate the two incidents however. This is probably the only thing of that nature that the NPR host had said. If Trump continues to talk about bodily functions of females, after a while he develops a reputation of being sexist.
They ignore that an NPR commentator said it. When you chastise someone you oppose for saying it while refusing to acknowledge one of your own did it toward one of your own, that's all the proof one needs.
An NPR commentator made the statement about Mondale/Ferraro sometime in 2010 as part of a story related to Ferraro's death.
There is no separation of the two. Both used the same word. Difference is one was a Liberal and one wasn't. Guess who gets chastised for doing the SAME thing? When the side that does the chastising constantly applies a different standard when one of their own does it and the opposition does it, after a while the reputation of being hypocrites sticks.
