Usually the losers will say "well we'll get 'em in 4 years" but this time was different. 

I think a lot of it started because some folks think celebrities have enlightened political minds. 

Madonna wanted to blow up the White House even before Trump unpacked. 

De Niro wanted to fight him on day 2

Quote:More than 100 Hollywood stars and producers have signed a letter protesting NBC's decision to schedule a town hall with President Trump Thursday night, directly opposite Democratic candidate Joe Biden's town hall on ABC. 


Stars including Ava DuVernay, Billy Porter, Amy Schumer, Julianne Moore and Seth Rogen – and NBC talent such as the cast of "This is Us" and "Law & Order: SVU" actress Mariska Hargitay – said they were "devastated" over the decision.

Celebrities did NOT lose their shit as bad when bush was elected because Bush was not a twitter troll who loved to call people nasty names as part of his campaign strategy.

So what is wrong with saying "Because Trump" when is is 100% correct?

It is not in the news because people think celebrities have "enlightened political minds".  It is simply because celebrities are famous.  No matter what they do it makes the news.

Quote:C-SPAN suspended its political editor Steve Scully indefinitely Thursday after he admitted to lying about his Twitter feed being hacked when he was confronted about a questionable exchange with former Trump aide Anthony Scaramucci.

Just asking because Trump just declared he knows nothing about QAnon, except that they are strongly against pedophilia, on which he agrees with them.

An 'extremely credible source' has called my office and told me that @BarackObama's birth certificate is a fraud.

"I know nothing about it. That was an opinion of somebody. That was a retweet. I put it out there. People can decide for themselves"

"I don't get that. You're the president. You're not like someone's crazy uncle who can just retweet whatever."

"I do a lot of retweets, and frankly, because the media is so fake and so corrupt if I didn't have social media...I wouldn't be able to get the word out"
