.jonathanchait is sorry for the 'terrible pain' his recent tweet caused Republicans: 'I have taken to heart these criticisms, which are completely sincere and in no way a cynical effort to generate cheap clicks by misconstruing an obvious joke.'
I have caused terrible pain to your community with my hurtful words. This week, I wrote a “humorous” tweet about an offer by a conservative group to aid stranded drivers on I-95:
As RedState correctly scolds, “In the middle of a snow emergency with these people trapped in the snow, this is what he thinks is a proper response? And by the way, Jonathan, this kind of response is ‘pulling yourself up by your own bootstraps.’ When the government fails you, you figure out ways around it to help yourself and your neighbors.”
This tweet generated an even larger and more outraged flood of headlines like “Liberals mock family of 11 featured on CNN concerned about rising cost of milk” and “‘What a POS’: Upper-class twit Jonathan Chait sneers at family of 11 — including adopted and foster children — for feeling the pain of inflation [video].”
