An Open Letter to Meryl Streep
US Defense Watch ^ | January 9, 2017 | Ray Starmann

Posted on 01/09/2017 6:15:04 PM PST by pboyington

Dear Ms. Streep,

Congratulations on your award last night. You’ve had a long and successful career. Bravo for you. I’m sorry to say, I personally don’t like your films or your acting, but I guess I’m just another deplorable who watches football and “mixed” martial arts when John Wayne movies aren’t on TV.

In typical Hollywood tradition, you used your moment in the spotlight on stage to bash President-Elect Trump and soon to be President Trump.

As Jackie Gleason said, “How sweet it is…”

Your little tirade on stage consisted of a myriad of criticisms launched against Mr. Trump. In true liberal fashion, they were filled with emotion and fury and signified nothing.

You couldn’t help bringing up the Birther issue could you? Well, let’s examine some facts. Barack Obama took several years to produce his birth certificate. Most Americans, when asked, will either have a copy of theirs in a file cabinet at home, or will simply request the county where they were born to mail them a photocopy. Strangely, the hunt for Barack Obama’s birth certificate became something tantamount to the search for Bigfoot.

When the President produced his birth certificate many experts believed that it was indeed a fake and printed out not on a 1961 typewriter, but on a modern day computer using a Microsoft Word font, strangely called, ‘typewriter.’

Imagine that…

Most interestingly, President Obama’s college and law school transcripts are locked up under court order. He is the only President in recent memory who refuses to release his academic records to the press. I wonder why…

You quickly segwayed into the issue of immigration, by pointing out several foreign born actors in the audience. President-Elect Trump is not interested in the immigration status of Dev Patel or Ryan Gosseling. He is interested in the immigration status of nearly 12 million illegals from Mexico and Latin America who have seized American blue collar jobs and subsequently driven down wages.

Mr. Trump’s call for a temporary ban on immigration from countries that breed terrorists like rabbits, such as Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan and Pakistan would have no effect on the audience at the Golden Globes, unless, perhaps, Amy Adams is working for the IRA.

I think we’re all fairly certain that Ryan Gosseling isn’t a member of ISIS. But, how is the nation supposed to vet hundreds of thousands of undocumented single males from the Middle East. It is a task that is fundamentally impossible. That is a fact, Ms. Streep, whether you or the Hollywood liberal community wish to accept it or not.

It is the job of the President of the United States to protect this nation from all threats, foreign and domestic, not to bow to the whims and emotional vacillations of a post-menopausal actress, who has had several glasses of Chablis, courtesy of the Beverly Hilton and Merv Griffin’s estate.

You then proceeded to verbally accost President-Elect Trump for making comments about a disabled reporter. Yet, Mr. Trump continues to disavow that story entirely to this day. Speaking of disabled and mentally challenged people, where were you when the story broke concerning the four African American thugs in Chicago who tortured a mentally challenged 18 year old white man?

Did you find that acceptable behavior because he was white and therefore possibly a Trump supporter?

Naturally, you stated that you were against any forms of violence, yet your party was instigating violence at Trump rallies across the nation, through paid professional anarchists and sundry criminals financed by George Soros. You might remember a certain Project Veritas video where the DNC’s nefarious plans to incite anarchy were laid at the doorstep of the American people.

I have to admit I agree with you that the nation needs what you deemed a ‘principled press.’ Unfortunately, the mainstream media is neither principled nor journalists anymore. They are nothing more than lackeys, paid hacks, kowtowing to whatever directive emanates from the White House.

I also agree with you that we need a Committee to Protect Journalists. Of course that committee could have helped the journalists that were being targeted and imprisoned by President Obama who seemed to have declared war on the press and whistleblowers.

Undoubtedly, Ms. Streep, you are still suffering from what ABC Sports once called ‘the agony of defeat.’

Perhaps, when you’re alone and counting one of your 15 million dollar paychecks, you might reflect on the fact that Mr. Trump won the election because Americans are hurting. Nearly 95 million Americans are out of the workforce, 50 million are living in poverty and 47.5 million are on food stamps.

The average American doesn’t have the luxury of pondering the issues of our time over a glass of Dom Perignon like you do. They’re in a battle day and night, 24/7 to put food on the table while working three lousy jobs because your President and your party are a trainwreck for this nation.

So instead of giving a pedophile rapist like Roman Polanski a standing ovation, like the one you gave him at the 2003 Oscars, you might want to give the nation of working deplorables who buy tickets to your films that they can’t afford a standing ovation.

You, Ms. Streep, like the majority of the creative community in Hollywood need a serious reality check. You need to come down off your cross on Mulholland Drive and mine some coal, drive a truck and stock some shelves at Walmart with the rest of the country.

Get used to saying President Trump.

How sweet it is!

You are an old bitter hag.

For some reason those pompous, wealthy, prima-donna Hollywood types think we care what they think. In reality, they live in a goo-goo lala land where their lives revolve around their fame, riches, and the number of awards they give themselves. They’re totally out of touch with the American family. There are teachers, nurses, mechanics, etc. that do outstanding jobs but never get an award, and never get any fame.

I really enjoyed Ms. Streep’s performance in Gone With the Wind as Rhett Butler’s love interest.

I just think she is upset because the market for biographical movies about a female president just tanked.

Meryl is on my ban list along with every other Trump hater. Hollyweirdo libs have proved their egos are bigger than their acting skills. They won’t be getting my dimes at the theater or tv. If enough ban them, maybe they’ll learn to keep their mouths shut and act.

Please, Trump, pull all federal funds from the arts.

PIERS MORGAN INSIGHTFULLY OBSERVED: “Streep began her laceration of Pres Trump by saying that Hollywood, foreigners, and the press, are ‘the most vilified segments of American society' today. At which point, the cameras panned out to hundreds of the richest, most privileged people in American society in their $10,000 tuxedos and $20,000 designer dresses, loudly cheering this acknowledgement of their 'dreadful victimhood.'

Just goes to show..... liberals are never more jubilant than when they're in the "consecrated state of victimhood." It's the only time liberals feel really good about themselves....when they think they're victims.

Just imagine the celebration after Streep informed plain old Americans like us that THEY....the Hollyood luminaries.... are the real victims.

I can almost hear the champagne corks pop at their victimhood celebrations.....held in 20 million dollar beach cottages in Malibu.

Call me crazy, but I saw someone very fearful trying to appear unconcerned. Or loaded cause she is scared. Made me feel warm all over. Her career was already on the downward direction.

Obama gets a free pass for his making fun of the Special Olympics on the Jay Leno show years ago. Libs never mention that one. Just Google “Obama Special Olympics Leno”

Always a joy to read the author above. He says things that I think but cannot express. The actress Streep took the low road and now her star is dimmed.

Rule: if a person insults Trump and his supporters, then that person loses influence. I learned this rule in Feb. 2016 when Jeb Bush insulted Trump and then was called “low energy.”
