Hollywood Panics Over Hillary Behind the Scenes at Emmy Parties
The Wrap ^ | 9/19/2016 | Sharon Waxman

Posted on 09/20/2016 5:33:53 AM PDT by simpson96

I ran into Republican pollster Frank Luntz at the HBO party after the Emmy ceremony at the sprawling Pacific Design Center. A few feet away, “Veep” winner Julia Louis-Dreyfus was fending off a crush of well-wishers while HBO chief Richard Plepler had just come from finding his lost cellphone.

What’s going to happen? a group of eager Hollywood acolytes wanted Luntz to tell them. Would Hillary Clinton manage a win?

Luntz was wearing a burgundy vest and his signature Prince Valiant hairstyle, and shook his head sagely. “She’s going to win, but I can’t say anymore that it’s for certain,” he said.

The group recoiled.

Onstage at the Emmys, host Jimmy Kimmel and many others mocked Donald Trump. (After accepting her award for comedic directing, “Transparent” director Jill Soloway told reporters that Trump is an “inheritor to Hitler.”)

But offstage, Hillary Panic was rife at the pre- and post-Emmy parties, where Hollywood usually dresses up to celebrate television. This year, many Hillary supporters were seized by election nerves.

MSNBC anchor Lawrence O’Donnell was solicited for his opinions left and right. O’Donnell said he has sensed a profound disconnect between mainstream media and the electorate

Luntz, the paid “pollster” who jams audiences with plants, thinks Hillary is going to win, but it’s uncertain. In other words, he’s having a hard time finding enough plants to fill is audience to say how mean Trump is...

Just being at the Emmy backstage parties affirms his “doucheness”.

They need to take in some Syrian “migrants” into their mansions.

Then they will figure out the Trump vote.

A jihadist setting off a suitcase nuke in Hollyweird would be doing the rest of the US a huge service.

The system is gamed for the Democrat to win but it counts on the acceptance of the candidate. Hillary is looking really shaky right now. Democrats are afraid she will collapse before the election.
All this “Trump is Hitler” stuff is not helping their cause. Mr Hyperbole is not always your friend.

What is wrong with these people?

How do these conversations go?

“It will be just awful if we DON’T HAVE MORE GOVERNMEN!!! I mean can YOU IMAGINE???”

I wonder if any of them notice what the socialist leaders always refer to them as (useful idiots)

It’s an online (Amazon Prime, IIRC) series about a transexual woman played by Jeffrey Tambor.

Not surprisingly, it’s won several awards.

O’Donnell said he has sensed a profound disconnect between mainstream media and the electorate, which is why reporting on Donald Trump’s lies, his charitable non-donations, his debt-dodging bankruptcies, his holding back his tax returns, seems to have little impact.

That's because the mainstream media is avoiding Clinton's own problems, except when they can't do it any longer. But, you exaggerate anything you can find on Trump.

Trump's lies? Donald exaggerates a great deal, but he doesn't lie. On the other hand, Hillary doesn't appear to be capable of telling the truth. She wouldn't even tell the truth about her "pneumonia" until she was videotaped on 9/11.

Trump's charitable non-donations? Two words: "Clinton Foundation". It's a complete fraud, and it wouldn't take more than a few minutes of time with an forensic accountant to see the discrepancies.

Debt-dodging bankruptcies? How many businesses have you started? What's your ratio of success to failure? Trump's FEC disclosure lists about 500 different businesses in operation at this time. 3 bankruptcies out of 500 is practically a perfect record. If you knew anything at all about the risks of starting a business, you would understand that it's standard procedure to incorporate each one individually to protect your personal assets and the other businesses.

Finally: tax returns. Trump has been audited every year since 2002. Audits have been completed up through 2009, with no change. Any lawyer will tell you that you don't comment on pending litigation, and accountants will tell you that you don't comment on pending audits. If you want to complain, why don't you ask the IRS why they are harassing Trump? The IRS is still pursuing audits for 2010 and later, despite some of the same disputes having been settled in prior years. But you know what the IRS is going to say? We don't comment.

Trump could release some of his old tax returns, but they would not be representative of his current tax situation. And, you can count on the media to misrepresent them. I suspect his 2007 and 2008 returns show minimal taxes paid, due to huge losses. His 2009 and 2010 taxes were probably minimized due to losses that were carried forward. But, the average person doesn't understand that is not only legal -- it's expected. A responsible media would explain that... but in the US, that's an oxymoron.
