Conservative commentator Meghan McCain on Sunday criticized actress Meryl Streep's Golden Globes dig at Donald Trump, saying it shows that Hollywood doesn't understand the forces behind Trump's victory.

"This Meryl Streep speech is why Trump won," McCain, the daughter of Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), tweeted Sunday night.

"And if people in Hollywood don't start recognizing why and how - you will help him get re-elected."

Sanctimonious babblers united. Never quite sure how to take meghan mclame. But in this instance, I gotta agree with her. Pompous hollyweird P'sOS glorifying themselves. NOT sorry I missed it.

What’s that saying? ... “Even a blind squirrel finds a nut twice a day”?

I’ve been saying for years: Streep is a bad actor.

I can’t stand her over-emoting and stupid fake accents.

She needs to get back to Over-Actors Anonymous.

“Conservative Commentator”

Nope. Not. Never.

Rather, better labels for her/it are:

Fat, slovenly, sh!t for brains, leech, and bubble-head

Meghan McCain is no more “conservative” than MeGYN Kelly, or any of the rest of the limousine liberal set.

The Streep speech was written and produced by John Favreau, Obamas Hollywood ultra liberal head writer.

She’s right. Deplorables vastly outnumber elite Hollywood liberal morons.

I am a quadraraplegic. I can write anything I want about anyone. And they have to take it.

I am black. I can write anything I want about anyone, and they have to take it!

Donald Trump appears wearing shoe polish and waving his arms.

Get the point Streep? You are just “ a tay in the win.”

The era of political correctness as a socio-political weapon are OVER! You say, write or publish something stupidly fake news, and nothing will prevent a critical response!

If you do not like it, change the libel and defamation laws for public figures who are victims of such tripe as that adduced by people like Streep!

Look at it this way: if Trump is conservative, then so is Meghan McCain.

“..you will help him get re-elected”

Trump may or may not be our idea of a true conservative, but he is ruffling the right feathers.
