Conservative commentator Tomi Lahren has been calling liberals “snowflakes” on Twitter and last night she used the “Final Thoughts” segment of her show to explain what constitutes a snowflake.
“If you spend more time occupying Wall Street than you do occupying a shower or a job, you might be a snowflake,” Lahren said before going on to name other examples for roughly three minutes.
“If the term ‘white Christmas’ sounds racists to you, you might be a snowflake,” she said. “If you believe illegal immigrant should be able to get drivers licenses, in-state tuition and Obamacare, you might be a snowflake.”

TheBlaze host then turned her attention to people who don’t support President-elect Donald Trump.
“If Donald Trump’s tweets bother you more than the four Americans we lost in Benghazi, classified information shared on a private server, Saudi-bought influence at the State Department or paid violence at Trump rallies, you might be a snowflake,” she said.
It seems that Lahren uses the term to describe people with opposing political views because snowflakes are delicate and unique.
