And he got the play. The polite insult was like a free fortune cookie at the end of the meal. "Beware. Your orange friend may betray you." barfo
Beware of the rude chest thumping after the show. I have no beef with code pink or other lunatic fringe left wing groups protesting, but not when it's a paid venue. The only good thing about Trump winning is the left's meltdown over it. These people aren't happy if their own candidate wins. May as have them unhappy, while about half the country is happy their guy won, than everyone unhappy. Well, that and the beat down her royal highness got.
There's Hamilton, the hit musical and Hamilton, the city. Angry social media users confuse the two http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/hamil...-social-media-users-confuse-the-two-1.3859503
I love this one by some observer; "I WAS GOING 2c THAT SHOW NOT ANYMORE Hope the owners of the show feel some $ pain from this" I suspect a good many feel the same.
Uhm, the show is sold out until the end of time, more or less. The owners aren't going to feel any financial pain. barfo
I thought they got that for the supposedly nonwhite only casting call they supposedly put out. Notice I said supposedly twice?
That's the problem with the disease called "Liberalism." They advocate against bigotry, misogyny, sexism, racism and promote tolerance until you disagree with their world view. Then they have every right to be racist, misogynist, sexist and intolerant (bigotry) towards those they disagree with. There are millions of examples of this hypocrisy.
I have very little respect for Mike Pence's political stances but I have to admit I was surprised and impressed by his response to the Hamilton furor. Instead of getting butt hurt like his boss, he took the high road. He (apparently) understands that the First Amendment is one of the strongest and most important foundations on which this country was built. And yes, dissent IS what freedom sounds like. At least we have one guy in the White House who appears to understand American history......maybe he'll actually help curb some of Donny's darker impulses over the next four years.
Yes, Donny's thinned skin was so thin that he said positive messages towards Hillary and Barrack O when he could have rubbed in his victory for the world to see. It was so thin that he invited Mitt Romney, the biggest advocate of the "Never Trump" movement that called him a fraud and tried to use McMuffin to run in Utah so Trump would lose that State, to interview for the Secretary of State position. Labeling "thinned skin" for pushing back when liberals usually have open season of their out of control bigotry is a failed logic. Sorry your narrative failed. I have a feeling he will prove many of you wrong this term.
I think it's worth noting that actors and entertainers get booed pretty often..I agree about the Eagles concert...I've seen that happen before..went to see a reggae concert with my son and the singer seemed to want to make all the white people in the audience uncomfortable with his rants..Apparently it was OK for him to accept our Babylonian money to perform .Crosby Stills, Nash and Young do a lot of that too.....I think insulting people at your performance IS in very bad taste but I heard the speech to Pence and honestly what I heard was a polite, civil plea to a newly elected govt official.....Pence didn't have any problem with it...Trump was way off base with his tweet....especially the "I hear it's overrated" barb...
It was a distraction from what really happened to him. We'll be getting 4 years of these kinds of things (assuming he's not impeached before then..which i don't think will happen though).
ok....let's hope he does but mags you're flaunting the divisionary schpiel again....and I thought you wanted to make America great again? If Trump can be civil to a democrat.....you should learn by example and hug a bunch of liberals today singing "We are the world" in falsetto
Why would Pence go to a show full of people he hates and despises anyway? He should have known he would proably get booed. Hell, he is going to get booed almost every where he goes, as will Trump. They should get used to it. As for the cast, they did not harass him, they presented him with a plea to not turn his back on the diversity of this country. They thanked him for coming to the show for God sake, hardly harassment.
