Did Sarah Palin, Ted Nugent and Kid Rock go too far in mocking Hillary Clinton’s portrait?
Washington Post ^ | 4/21/2017 | Lindsey Bever

They ate lobster salad and lamb chops, with baked Alaska for dessert. The dinner-table conversation veered from hunting and music to the Supreme Court. There was also a White House tour — led by their host, President Trump.

And, of course, they documented every moment.

Trump's Wednesday-night dinner guests — Sarah Palin and conservative musicians Ted Nugent and Kid Rock — posted numerous pictures after their visit to the White House, becoming quite a topic of conversation.

One photo in particular has drawn attention — the one in which the three high-profile visitors are seen posing in front of the official portrait of Hillary Clinton, when she was a first lady.

In the picture, Palin, Nugent and Kid Rock appear to be mocking Clinton, who has been the subject of sharp criticism and sometimes crude insults from the trio.

The photo, posted on Palin's Facebook page without a caption, has ricocheted around social media, thrilling Clinton haters and upsetting others who have called it “disrespectful” and “straight up classless.” Some in the latter camp have referred to Palin and her rock-star friends as “the redneck holy trinity.”

“What a bunch of disrespectful idiots,” one person wrote beneath the photo. “You call yourselves proud Americans and behave like 3rd graders in the White House. I don't care if you like her or not. You are disrespectful.”

Even Paul Begala, a former White House counselor to President Bill Clinton, had something to say about it.

“It’s a white trash Mount Rushmore,” the CNN pundit said Thursday on Anderson Cooper's show. “I love it. Look at them. That’s just perfect.”

Then he tweeted about his televised remarks.

I'd be surprised if it *isn't* true. The Clintons' influence-peddling operation is unprecedented in scope. *Someone* is going to have to deliver the goods.

I would hang it over the master bathroom toilet.
Why? So Trump can pee easier without a Morning Wood.

The left can’t stand to see one of their sacred cows mocked. They yammer about being “disrespectful,” while calling people they dislike “rednecks” and “white trash,” proving yet again that the left demands radical double standards in everything they do and say. That’s the only standard they insist on.

They must have the goods on Hillary's Moloch-worshipping inner circle of pedophiles and child sex-slavers.

A Better Question is “Did hill ary go to far committing felonies while secretary of state, and for denying 4 americans proper protection in terrorist nations when they begged for it, and for calling the parents of the slain americans liars on national TV, and for saying ‘what difference does it make’ when asked about hteir deaths, and for... and for... and for...”

Did they forget the pix of Obamaites posing in front of Ronald Reagan’s portrait and flipping him the bird?

A sane person might say they were paying tribute to the former First Lady.

Why assume the worst of these great American patriots? :)

Exactly. They were standing there, celebrating the contributions that our former First Lady has done for the country. ;)

Or perhaps the photographer picked the place. I’m photojournalist and often have to move people around for the best lighting, etc.

Flipping off President Reagan?

Such class, these Democrats have.

Trump has more class, and is far more magnanimous than any Democrat. Ever.

Well, in recent times. JFK was decent, in the sense that he cared about his country.

It makes me sad that this country has become so vicious towards each other (well, Reps will generally be gracious). It is really not good.
