At the Joop Café podcast, Dekker said on 24 March: "Thierry Baudet [is] more dangerous than Wilders. In my article at Joop, I say that Baudet is a Wilders in sheep's clothing; but by now, my opinion is that he's at least ten times as bad as Wilders. Wilders is a one man show with a group of followers, whereas Baudet is really building a movement. Thanks to that club, I'm now in hiding." On Twitter, she advocated for pieing Baudet. This resulted in even more controversy, because the late right-wing populist politician Pim Fortuyn was pied in 2002 and assassinated four weeks later. In late-night talkshow "Pauw" on 28 March, host Jeroen Pauw suggested that pieing Baudet or any other politician was an act of violence in itself, and might encourage others to commit murder. Dekker rejected and condemned violence. She stood by her Wilders tweet as "cynical" and exposing the "double standard" by which almost nobody condemned the mosque stoning, but everyone was outraged over any threat against Wilders. However, she expressed some regret over the Baudet tweet, which was "perhaps not very clever" of her, but still said "justifying rape" was far worse. Former VVD politician Ed Nijpels criticised her behaviour as "duplicitious", whereas PvdD leader Marianne Thieme defended her right to free speech.
