On the campaign trail Hillary Clinton
regularly appeared with celebrities: Madonna,
Beyoncé, Jay Z, the cast of “West Wing”, the cast of “Empire”, Sigourney
Weaver, Star Jones, Jaime King, Connie Britton, Elizabeth Banks, Meryl Streep,
Demi Lovato, Sarah Silverman, Lady Gaga, RuPaul, America Ferrara, Amy Schumer,
Julianne Moore, Lena Dunham, Bon Jovi, George and Amal Clooney, Robert DeNiro,
Danny DeVito, Kim Kardashian, Katy Perry and Selma Hayek.
The voters were worried about the cost of
their health care premiums and where they would find the money to pay their
bills or fix their cars.
The last thing any of us wants to hear is late
night TV hosts and Hollywood bobbleheads who judge themselves to be “America’s
conscience” getting preachy about religion, gun control, freedom of speech and climate
change. The Democrats relied on Hollywood to sell their message for the last
eight years.
The only celebrity willing to publicly
sympathize with Harvey Weinstein was Lindsay Lohan. Seems her agreement with Harvey was she’d
watch him while he showered for a gram of coke. *snark*
The Party must now distance itself from the
holier-than-thou Hollywood elites who have for three decades been silent about
people like Weinstein and Hillary’s husband who preyed upon vulnerable young
women.
Weinstein is the tip of
a very large iceberg and that iceberg includes the Democrat Party.

The sanctimonious Tinsel Town is imploding.
UPDATE: Drew Magary noted
in GQ,
“Already,
active Democrats like Elizabeth Warren and Al Franken have promised to give
back whatever money Weinstein donated to their campaigns. That’s all well and
good, but it’s a superficial solution to what REALLY plagues the Democratic Party,
and hamstrings their already limp attempts to get their shit together. While
Clinton and the like may truly not have known the depths of Weinstein’s
depravity, they certainly had an idea of who he was. Rumors about Weinstein’s
behavior have been public since 2001, and his reputation as the kind of man who
screams at anyone who dares cross him precedes those more damning rumors by
years and years. It’s not unfair to assume that someone who so relishes power
might wield it in horrible ways. Weinstein was an open shitbag, and the DNC
still let him be a champion of the party.”
