Shania Twain apologizes for saying she would have voted for Donald Trump
.msn ^ | 4/22/2018 | Hilary Hughes

Shania Twain apologized for her comments and clarified she does "not hold any common moral beliefs with the current President":

I would like to apologise to anybody I have offended in a recent interview with the Guardian relating to the American President. The question caught me off guard. As a Canadian, I regret answering this unexpected question without giving my response more context

I am passionately against discrimination of any kind and hope it’s clear from the choices I have made, and the people I stand with, that I do not hold any common moral beliefs with the current President

I was trying to explain, in response to a question about the election, that my limited understanding was that the President talked to a portion of America like an accessible person they could relate to

My answer was awkward, but certainly should not be taken as representative of my values nor does it mean I endorse him. I make music to bring people together. My path will always be one of inclusivity, as my history shows.

Country star, Canadian citizen and Swiss resident Shania Twain did not vote in the 2016 U.S. presidential election, but she has indicated that she would have voted for Donald Trump if she had the opportunity to do so.

The singer discussed her long absence from recording and performing in the 2000s and an abrupt shift to American politics when she mentioned her vote would've gone to Trump.

"I would have voted for him because, even though he was offensive, he seemed honest," she says of Trump. "Do you want straight or polite? Not that you shouldn’t be able to have both. If I were voting, I just don’t want bulls---. I would have voted for a feeling that it was transparent."

poor thing. She doesn't seem like the political sort. The comments were just that she "felt" he was honest. That wasn't a deep political analysis by her nor a deep physiological one -- just her feeling.

And she got pilloried by the leftist media for this.

Now, to prevent being crucified, she's backtracking. Who can blame her?

Her career has been over for 15 years. She just wanted to remind the CW crowd that truly was over.

I imagine after saying such a thing there was immediate and unbearable pressure to denounce it.

Where does this originate? Some CEO of some corporation applies pressure directly or indirectly? Threatened with bodily harm? Are children or spouses involved?

How do they get to these people so quickly? It’s blackmail plain and simple and should be investigated.

It goes to show you that the democrats will destroy anyone that doesn’t support them. Pathetic.

No wonder she didn’t know any better but to get tangled up in the Snake Pits of our political battles. She probably never gave it any serious thought, and presumed her first remark was just being nice.

Kiss your Country Western career goodbye, ShTw. Not that you had much of one left anyway, and we know you’re trying to kick start it up again. But you can forget it now. Say hello to the Dixie Ditzs.

Why are these women, in the twilight of their physical beauty, turning against President Trump?

Answer: Cheap copycat publicity that is exploiting the defeated.

Below is 52-year-old Shania Twain after entering Ottawa stadium on a dog sled, November, 2017. She was escorted on stage by a RCMP officer.

What did Montreal Gazette sports reporter Herb Zurkowsky tweet? “Shania looked like a tramp.”

However, just for the record, I wish a dog sled would bring her through my house and into my bedroom. The RCMP officer could wait outside with the dogs, thank you.

“I do not hold any common moral beliefs with the current President”

So it is okay then for another person to gas his people to death?

Shania Twain sounds like an repugnant evil bwitch.

Maybe in a few days, when she gets backlash from the other side, she’ll reverse again. And after that, again. And so on.
