Is “Fredo” an ethnic slur? Was CNN’s defense of anchor Chris Cuomo sexist? Did Donald Trump Jr. just confess to being the Trump family’s Fredo?
Everyone from the Trump boys to KISS’s Gene Simmons, Meghan McCain, Anthony Scaramucci, Tom Arnold and Alec Baldwin are weighing in on the viral video of Cuomo engaged in a loud, obscenity-filled argument with a bar patron who approached Cuomo and his family and called the CNN star “Fredo,” an apparent reference to The Godfather saga’s doomed, weakling brother .
“It always happens!,” Trump tweeted in a day-long obsession with the incident. “When a Conservative does even a fraction of what Chris Cuomo did with his lunatic ranting, raving, & cursing, they get destroyed by the Fake News. But when a Liberal Democrat like Chris Cuomo does it, Republicans immediately come to his defense. We never learn!”
Donald Trump Jr. had two of the day’s odder reactions, in one retweeting an absurd suggestion that Cuomo’s use of the word “punk” during the argument was a homophobic slur, and in an earlier tweet seeming to express solidarity with the Fredos of the world.
