OK, before anyone hollers on me for the characterization of CNN commentator Sally Kohn in the title of this post, I call your attention to her Twitter bio, in which she refers to herself using precisely the same words.
Being second fiddle to Rachel Maddow doesn’t seem like that much to write home about, but then Kohn doesn’t have much else going for her. She has distinguished herself before with her observation that Sharia law is “progressive” (she’s evidently unaware of the fate of men outed as homosexuals under that legal code) and her unequivocal statement that denying conservatives the right to verbalize their opinions on college campuses is a good thing.
Kohn’s latest comes in the form of a tweet posted yesterday that outlines her five-point plan for saving America:
Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?
Straightforward from here:
1. Impeach Trump & Pence
2. Constitutional crisis
3. Call special election
4. Ryan v Clinton
5. President Clinton— Sally Kohn (@sallykohn) February 15, 2017
It’s a little short on details — a bit like making a shopping list for a dinner party that contains the single entry food — but that didn’t prevent more than 8,000 of her 106 thousand followers from giving the plan a thumb’s up.
The tweet also received better than 6,000 comments, but not all of them were on board with her plan. Here’s a cross-sampling of some of the dissenters, beginning with comedian Matt Walsh:
Straightforward from here:
1 Exile Trump to Mars
2 Feed Pence to lion
3 Special election
4 Cancel special election
5 Appoint Beyonce empress— Matt Walsh (@MattWalshBlog) February 15, 2017
Straightforward from here:
1. Railroad Trump
2. Constitutional crisis
3. American Civil War 2.0 goes hot

she could be referring to George Clinton. Would you vote for George Clinton?

Straightforward from Here:
1. Sally Kohn Learns about the Democratic process.
2. Stops defending Supremacist Islam.
3. Grows up. pic.twitter.com/sXzW4Ek2qx— R&G (@rgenci57) February 16, 2017
Some commenters tried to set Kohn straight (as it were!) on the facts:
Folks, @sallykohn is wrong: there’s no “special election” in the constitution. Paul Ryan would be President.https://t.co/nHhxzLbaqm

Others reminded Kohn of her own past attempts to claim the high road:
On a positive note, the Left’s laughable hypocrisy, continues to erode their worthiness of ever leading… pic.twitter.com/hWWVW6Om0t
