MargaretHelen: Ten Monkeys Tweeting On Ten IPhones Would Make A Better President Than Trump
Ten Monkeys Tweeting On Ten IPhones Would Make A Better President Than Trump
Margaret, I decided to stop feeling sorry for myself and rejoin the world again. I figured enough time had passed since the election and surely Trump had finally made that pivot and started acting like a President. So I tuned in to CNN and
Nope.
Now, Im not sure if Meryl Streep is overrated. I mean shes no Scott Baio, Ill give you that. But thats really not the point, is it? The point is that the man-child about to become our next President couldnt come up with a better retort than that? Meryl Streep is one of the most overrated actresses
as a comeback has about as much intellectual maturity as I know you are, but what am I? And he couldnt even do it in 140 characters. It took him 16 minutes and 417 characters to write the literary equivalent of Im made of rubber and youre made of glue. Good Lord, he cant even use an ellipsis correctly. Three dots, Donald. Three.
Honestly, ten monkeys banging on ten typewriters could have come up with a better response in less time. And it should come as no surprise that Trump had already forgotten a year earlier telling the Hollywood Reporter that Meryl Streep is excellent. We can only hope a year from now the man also forgets he was elected President and just wanders back to Trump Tower never to return to Washington. Of course that would leave us with Pence
Three dots, Donald. Three.
But its really not about Streep being overrated as an actress or Trump being outperformed by a group of typing chimpanzees. Its about the fact that Trump actually did mock a disabled person. Its about the fact that disrespect really does invite disrespect, and violence really does incite violence. And when the powerful use their position to bully others we all really do lose. Trump made fun of and imitated a disabled person. Its all on video and rather than believing what we all can see, we are being told we didnt actually see it. Just like we are told that Meryl Streep is the most excellent
.. No wait
