During the rally Carlson, who has three adult daughters, compared the US under Trump to a naughty girl being disciplined by her father. “If you allow your hormone-addled 15-year-old daughter to slam the door and give you the finger, you’re going to get more if it,” Carlson said. “There has to be a point at which Dad comes home.” At this point the crowd erupted into raucous cheers.

“Dad comes home and he’s pissed,” Carlson continues. “He’s not vengeful, he loves his children. Disobedient as they may be, he loves them … And when Dad gets home, you know what he says? You’ve been a bad girl. You’ve been a bad little girl and you’re getting a vigorous spanking right now. And no, it’s not going to hurt me more than it hurts you. No, it’s not. I’m not going to lie. It’s going to hurt you a lot more than it hurts me. And you earned this. You’re getting a vigorous spanking because you’ve been a bad girl, and it has to be this way.”

I mean… What. In. The. Fuck. Carlson just gave himself an erection in front of a crowd.

    This is a level of sexism and, frankly, creepy shit that should just not be tolerated at all. What kind of consequences could actually discourage this kind of behavior, I wonder?

      Civilized places outlaw corporeal punishments of children. So jail should be the thing disuading crazies from engaging in it.

        It’s fucking wild how deeply so many people believe you not only should be allowed to physically assault children as a disciplinary measure, but that NOT beating kids is the problem in the world
