During his speech to Congress, Donald Trump honored 13-year-old DJ Daniels, who has brain cancer, by swearing him in as an honorary Secret Service agent. “We’re going to give you the greatest honor of all tonight, DJ,” Trump said.
Republicans cheered as DJ received his badge, fulfilling his dream of becoming a police officer.
While social media praised the moment, MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace criticized Trump’s gesture.
“I hope he lives the life he desires,” Wallace said, but admitted her thoughts turned “to something unpleasant and disturbing.”
Her remarks sparked backlash, with many accusing her of being insensitive.
