    Lots of left wing news outlets reported on this and various other Malia behaving badly stories including TMZ and NYD.

    What are they supposed to talk about, all Trump’s accomplishments?

    Tmz isn't a left wing tabloid.

    It's just a tabloid. That's it. They will papparazi the **** out of any high profile human regardless of their political affiliation.

    Dailycaller broker the story. Other respectable news outlets reported the backlash against the dailycaller - for instance how Ivanka Trump called on them to leave her alone. They didn't show the video.

    I would have never seen this but a left leaning poster on CF shared it.

    I should have had my cell phone camera out when a certain other presidential daughter projectile vomited a cheeseburger after her shot of tequila and key bump all over the Casino El Camino patio.

    I'd be richer than I am now.

    I like to think one's dignity is worth more lost than when its taken for granted.

    But maybe I'm just a sucker who should've sold out more often.

    Dignity has no price. My buddy held her ponytail in the restroom the 2nd time she got sick. There were no large men with dark glasses around, which I found odd.

    Point is to demonize your enemies

    That she can blow Os like a boss.

    As I understand it, she's 19. The legal age for smoking is 18. I dont think there is a story here.

    see I don't even get how that demonizes her, it's a 19 year old vaping, the horror.

    and what the hell is the daily caller.

    Daily caller is a right wing tabloid that is up there with infowars. They put out right-wing fake news and is very influential. The idea is to portray the left as morally bankrupt and the Obamas as bad people even though they are not in office.

    Imagine Huffpost doing a hit piece on Bush's kids now. It wouldn't happen. Because even they know it wouldn't be effective. But on the right, these tactics are highly effective. I actually heard this story from a right-wing colleague talking about how corrupt Clinton and the Obamas were and they even said that say what you will about Trump but you don't see Trump's kids smoking crack!

    I am more concerned that the girl grows beyond the celebrity corporate Dem atmosphere her father is so enamored of.

    After all she will probably run for political office or be a billionaire hedge fund owner soon.
