Can they make the privileged audience, Hollywood and the media the most vilified segments in American society? I don't think so. As I posted earlier, Streep is a prominent Democrat donor and Clinton supporter. She seems to be obsessed with Trump, even impersonating him on stage. Streep has done this before. She used her speech at the 2004 Golden Globes awards to attack George W. Bush. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you feel no sense of moral superiority over Trump you should probably walk naked into the hills when the snow comes, for evolution's sake. I thought it was the angry Trump voting wimps playing the victim card? Edited January 9, 2017 by welshbairn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandarilla Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 The lack of class and dignity from the man never fails to surprise.How the hell can he not see that replying was a stupid, stupid thing to do? It's that lack of basic judgment and restraint that worries me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ira Gaines Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Her being obsessed isn't the issue anyways. She can be as obsessed as she wants for any reason that she wants. None of that makes any difference to the truth of what she says. Which is why people are choosing to comment on other things. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny Danger Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 8 hours ago, Shades75 said: I think it's more significant that Trump has allowed himself to be baited, again. Surely it'd be helpful, to himself as much as everyone else, to grow a thicker skin. I don't want him to grow a thicker skin. I want him to continue to rise to the bait, I eventually want him to snap. FWIW I think he will continue to rise to the bait regardless of what anyone wants. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the sanctimonious tone, the over-bearing sense of moral superiority and playing the victim that I can't stand. She doesn't really have a point on immigration. Very, very few of Trump voters want all immigration shut down. What we want is low skilled immigration mostly shut down and the percentages of foreigners living here to be less than 15%, instead of moving up to 25% as it's projected under the current rules. Nobody is against foreign actors and media folks. What a ridiculous point she was making. The problem with Hollywood folks is that they don't actually want to live under the policies they promote. They send their kids to mostly white and Asian elite private schools. They have armed guards. They want to drive up our costs and take away good jobs in the name of green energy, and then they will fly a private jet for two days of partying in Europe. f**k em.

If he did get bored, he'd probably just delegate everything. I can't imagine him resigning. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
