Piers Morgan Uncensored certainly delivered on its title’s promise on Wednesday (August 12) after guests Joanne Carducci and Elijah Schaffer clashed in a cuss-filled showdown.
The panel was discussing the ongoing controversy surrounding the WNBA and trans athletes competing in women’s sports when Schaffer turned up the heat by arguing that nobody wants to watch women’s sports and that maybe women weren’t “designed” to compete in athletic competitions.
“We’re here arguing about a sport that no one wants to watch,” the conservative commentator said, per Mediaite. “I don’t care about women’s sports, and neither do most Americans, because of the same reason we don’t get super excited about the Special Olympics… they’re very similar.”
Carducci, a Democratic activist known for her JoJoFromJerz social media presence, looked stunned as Schaffer continued his rant.
“If women can’t compete, then maybe they weren’t designed… that’s not what their purpose is — to be athletic and be competitive and be on the market,” Schaffer continued. “So when we’re talking about men being in women’s sports…”
Morgan and Fox News contributor Tyrus interrupted Schaffer, with the latter saying, “Let JoJo go.” Morgan added, “I’m going to give the final word to JoJo because I think she’s ready to blow.”
Carducci laid into Schaffer, saying, “That was a nine-layer dip of just f***ing what the f***, dude. When your voice changes, let’s have a real conversation, okay? In the meantime, you can shut your f***ing stupid ass up.”
Schaffer cut Carducci off by mimicking what she would say next, adding, “Your penis is small!”
“Look, you said your penis is small. I didn’t say your penis is small, dude. I don’t want to ever think about your penis,” Carducci fired back.
The argument went further off the rails from there, with Schaffer accusing Carducci of “blushing” while she mentioned his genitalia. Meanwhile, Carducci blasted Schaffer for “disparag[ing] people with disabilities and women in the same soundbite,” adding, “You’re sitting there in your high chair in all your smugness talking about your tiny little penis?”
Schaffer retorted that he himself has a disability, saying that he’s “diagnosed level two autistic” and asking Carducci to “have some respect, please.”
