Ana Navarro: Michelle Wolf should be the one getting the Nobel Peace Prize

CNN contributor Ana Navarro on Monday defended comedian Michelle Wolf for her routine at the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner, saying Wolf should be the one getting the Nobel Peace Prize.

“I’d say to Michelle Wolf, ‘Hallelujah, girl.’ You should be the one getting the Nobel Peace Prize,” Navarro said on CNN’s “New Day.”

“She was able to do what nobody else has been able to do: Get Trump supporters to actually go on TV and defend women from being skewered and offended for their looks,” Navarro said.

Wolf’s comments about the administration at Saturday’s dinner offended politicians and journalists alike and led some White House aides to walk out of the dinner early.

The president referred to Wolf as a “filthy ‘comedian’” in a tweet and said she “totally bombed.”

The White House Correspondents’ Dinner was a failure last year, but this year was an embarrassment to everyone associated with it. The filthy “comedian” totally bombed (couldn’t even deliver her lines-much like the Seth Meyers weak performance). Put Dinner to rest, or start over!

Trump also tweeted Monday morning that the White House Corrspondents’ Association dinner was “dead as we know it.”

Navarro also backed Wolf in a Sunday tweet, calling those offended out as “snowflakes,” a moniker often thrown around at those who say they are offended by the president. 

While Wolf has triggered rancor from many conservatives and media personalities, people have also praised Wolf for not holding back her punches against the administration.
