‘This is disgusting’: Trump Jr. blasts Mika Brzezinski for using homophobic slur to describe Mike Pompeo
Donald Trump Jr. on Wednesday slammed MSNBC’s ‘Morning Joe’ co-host Mika Brzezinski for her remark about Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.
“This is disgusting! How can @KevinHart4real essentially be forced to lose his Oscar’s gig for comments he made years ago as a comedian, but Mika can make a seriously homophobic slur on a major news station, have the network try to cover it up & its not an issue? Give me a break!” Trump Jr. tweeted.

Brzezinski, in a discussion about Pompeo’s morning interview with ‘Fox & Friends,’ said: “I understand that Donald Trump doesn’t care…But why doesn’t Mike Pompeo care right now? Are the pathetic deflections that we just heard when he appeared on Fox and Friends, is that a patriot speaking, or a wannabe dictator’s butt boy?”
She was quickly called out for the reference and issued an apology, tweeting: “SUPER BADchoice of words…I should have said ‘water boy’… like for football teams or something like that…SO SORRY.”
