Spike Lee: Hillary Clinton Thought She Was ‘Entitled’ to the Presidency
Breitbart ^ | 5/22/2017 | Jerome Hudson

Posted on 05/22/2017 11:41:18 AM PDT by simpson96

Filmmaker Spike Lee unleashed a flurry of personal insults at President Donald Trump and revealed why Hillary Clinton was wrong to think she was “entitled” to the presidency in an interview this week. In a brief conversation with Hollywood Reporter at the Cannes Film Festival, the Do The Right Thing director didn’t mince words about the commander-in-chief: “He’s not my president. I call him Agent Orange.”

“There was some clip I saw yesterday of him dancing with the Saudis that was just ludicrous,” Lee said about Trump recent foreign trip to Saudi Arabia. “Not only is he not a good president, he can’t dance either,” Lee said while laughing. “He could be impeached on his rhythm. He’s the clown with the nuclear codes.”

Lee endorsed Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders for president in a radio ad last February and blasted the Democrat party’s “rigged” primary system.

When asked if he ever came around to supporting Clinton, Lee unloaded on the former frontrunner.

“Have you read the book Shattered? Great book,” Lee said of the new Clinton campaign tell-all, Shattered: Inside Hillary Clinton’s Doomed Campaign, which offers a blistering behind-the-scenes look at how Hillary Clinton lost the election.

“Hillary comes with entitlement. They thought they were entitled to this and despite what you might think, you gotta work,” Lee explained. “If you’re chilling at Martha’s Vineyard, and think ‘It’s a done deal.’ But it wasn’t. There’s one thing you can learn from sports. To quote Yogi Bear: “It ain’t over ’til it’s over.” They thought it was theirs. Shit don’t work like that.”

That’s pretty much it....

I saw Cher prancing around on stage like a teenager at 71 yrs. old. Like Hillary and Madonna 60 and 70 has beens, they just can’t seem to recognize there comes a time when it’s too late and let the next generation have their time without trying to hog a stage you are no longer well suited for.

Cher was ridiculous actually.....had wear under garmet sleeves and body suite to hide her aging body and it showed through! Why anyone would do such a thing is beside me.... she really looked bad.

Yogi Berra got his name as a teenager and was a household name years before the debut of Yogi Bear in 1958. Berra sued the cartoon makers, but I believe they settled amicably.

Spike thinks Article 2 says that the winner of “Dancing With The Stars” is crowned POTUS.

Yogi caught Don Larsen’s perfect game in 1956, so he was already a legend before the ursine Yogi made his debut as a bit player on Huckleberry Hound in 1958.

She probably did. She thought she would just waltz in and take it all. She was no doubt PROMISED AND DELIVERED the nomination. Go, Bernie, win your suit.

This article says Berra was the inspiration for the similarly named cartoon character:

Despite Mr. Lee being an obvious Lefty, he's right on this issue: Hillary Clinton essentially bullied her way to the Democratic nomination, especially with the rigging of the delegate count (thanks to those superdelagates) and her "It's all about me!" sanctimonious attitude.

You’re confused. Hillary Clinton was named after Sir Edmund Hillary.
