This Meryl Streep speech is why Trump won. And if people in Hollywood don't start recognizing why and how - you will help him get re-elected

getting pushback too
Oh please tell us why and how, Meghan..
Right.. Meryl Streep talking about how diverse people are in Hollywood from all over the Planet.. and saying how heartbroken she was and still is when she saw trump mock a disabled reporter is the reason trump won.

Conservative women are livid because Meryl Streep criticized a man who mocks the disabled and brags about grabbing women by the pussy

(297,240 posts)Trump responded on Monday with a series of tweets calling Streep one of the most over-rated actresses in Hollywood.
Trumps defense, however, was a bridge too far for Fox Business host Stuart Varney and his Monday morning panel of guests.
How does name calling make American great again? business journalist Elizabeth MacDonald asked. Doesnt that undercut Mr. Trumps agenda by responding in ways like this?
I mean, he demeans himself, she added. You cannot expect people to climb on board with agenda when your judgement is so poor in making attacks like that.
I got it and I think youre right, Varney agreed.

please, go on about why pointing out what a mean and ugly asshole he is causes people to vote for him.

Mocking does he even know what it means, cause apparently he wants us to stop mocking him from Sean Spicer, the fucking guy can not take criticism. At all .
