Trump Thinks Oscars Flub Was All Because of Him

President Trump blamed the embarrassing mix-up at the end of the Oscars on the awards’ show focus on him.

“I think they were focused so hard on politics that they didn’t get the act together at the end,” Trump told Breitbart in an interview Monday, the day after the show messed up and awarded the wrong movie with its most prestigious award, Best Picture.

Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway named “La La Land” the winner, but then had to yank the award away and give it to the real winner, “Moonlight.”

The underlying theme this year was to undermine, mock and compromise Trump...But in the end it totally backfired in they faces. What a bunch of clowns, they can't even give each other awards without eff'ing up.

Not flub, flubs. And yes they were because the Hollywood elitists are too obsessed with PRESIDENT Trump to be able to think straight. They are all insane. ALL of them.

Call me deplorable, boorish, whatever — but I find Trump’s tweets refreshing. He’s really my main reason for even using Twitter.

Actually, you had a bimbo and bozo on stage that couldn’t even read what was written on the outside of the envelope .... and these wee brains want us to take their political advice.

Evidently, the judges and presenters had their heads stuck so far up their butts, they couldn’t read the cue cards.

The rumor is the Price/Waterhouse idiot was tweeting when he handed Warren Beatty the envelope!

Good grief, you're kidding!

You know, I met one of those Price Waterhouse people once. Insufferable, supercilious bore. Unbelievably full of herself.

I hope this fiasco lives a long time, and I hope it's hung around the neck of PW and Hollywood forever.

I think they got another envelope for the Best Actress award. When Beatty opened it up and saw Emma Stone “La La Land” he could not understand why Emma Stones’s name was written. He handed it to Faye Dunaway to figure it out. She did not have the mentality to figure out it was a duplicate of the previous award and assumed it was for “La La Land.”

This illustrates how the Hollywood crowd so locked in group think, they lack the mental ability to problem solve on their own. This also applies to their lock-step ideological acceptance of left-wing politics.

An illustration here of the liberal utter inability to understand humor and irony. Liberal
“humor” is “HAHAHAHAHA the rich old fart stepped in dog shit and fell and broke hs skull and died with his face in the dogshit HAHAHAHAHA!” They understand that. They cannot understand nuance and puns because for them words have only what meaning they ascribe to them at a particular instant.
