Move over “race card,” there is no need for you to do all the heavy lifting anymore. No, because now just being against the current president is more than enough license for unhinged liberal “thought leaders” to spew hateful, incendiary and increasingly dangerous rhetoric against all things MAGA.
Isn’t racism, which has been the central theme focused against all things Trump and his ardent base of supporters, so 2018? I mean, shouting racist at Trump didn’t prevent historic ascension to the presidency in 2016, did it? It hasn’t prevented a plurality of Americans from supporting common sense border security and immigration enforcement either. It also hasn’t knocked President Trump off his comfortable perch as the clear-cut favorite to win the 2020 presidential election.
So, from the recent tone deaf and factually inaccurate slurs of washed up celebrity Bette Midler, whose “Blackground” comment earned her infamy from both sides of the political sphere, the left now moves towards violent threats.
Not just, “I’ll kick your butt,” or “You’re going to be sorry if you vote for Trump again,” but a detailed and well thought out, sinister plan broadcast to you by none other than one of the more burned out relics of the 1980s Sunset Strip Hair Metal scene still registering a pulse – Motley Crue’s Tommy Lee.
Now, as a frequent visitor to legendary West Hollywood Bars, The Whiskey A Go-Go and The Rainbow Bar and Grill, and as a (in the words of President Trump) “Yuge” fan of all things Motley Crue, it truly does pain me to write these words, but Tommy Lee’s recent Twitter vitriol against Christians, unborn humans, Sean Hannity and even Chick-Fil-A necessitated a response.
Hatred, which is what the liberal base claims is their chief concern about our nation’s chief executive, seems to consistently be their weapon of choice against what has been an indisputably successful first two-and-a-half-years of the Trump administration.
While the picture of President Trump that the political left frames portrays is a xenophobic white supremacist, the actual economic picture for blacks and other minorities, women and non-Christians contradicts that narrative. In fact, with black unemployment reaching a historic low on several occasions during the Trump Presidency, one can argue that President Trump has economically empowered blacks more than any other president in American History, a history that includes America’s first black president, Barack Obama.
The same can be said for Hispanics, as data from April 2019 shows that their unemployment rate reached a record low when it dropped to 4.2 percent under Trump. Women of all races are also winning under Trump. According to an October 2018 report, the female unemployment rate reached its lowest level in 65 years.
Does this mean that the elites in Hollywood are against seeing minorities and women prosper? No. It just means that they are idiots. Idiots that are so caught up in their self-assigned mission to save us from a monster that they created in their own minds that the hard facts mean nothing to them.
Slandering a president that was once honored by Reverend Jesse Jackson and his Rainbow Coalition for not only donating office space at his 40 Wall Street property, so they can, in Jackson’s words, “Have a presence there,” but also for his efforts to “embrace the underserved communities." This displays the level of disconnection with reality that is unfortunately prevalent in the entertainment industry today.
It hasn’t infected the entire entertainment industry, as celebrities like Ted Nugent, Scott Baio, James Woods, Kid Rock and others have heaped praise on Trump using honesty and the factual record as the basis for their analysis of his performance as Commander-in-Chief.
As a realist, I understand little will change the distorted minds and corrupted hearts of celebrities. They will continue to lie to their legions of followers whose lives will never reach the point of having armed security as they propagate the merits of gun confiscation. They will continue to seek photo opportunities with disenfranchised blacks as they fight for more funding for the black genocide factory known as Planned Parenthood. It’s okay, they have their Idiot Privilege.
Tommy Lee?
Even in my condition (fat :) ) I can drop that guy with two shots.
Not that it is saying much.
Odd thing is a lot of hair metal band guys are right of center.
After all, they were suburban kids made good.
The lead singer of Motley Crue is, Brett Michaels is, Sebastian Bach is. A bunch of others.
Maybe Tommy Lee should cut down on whatever slew of narcotics he is taking these days.
So.... what did Tommy Lee and Bette Midler do this time?!
tommy lee vs. tommy lee jones
i go jones on that one......
Keith Richards has aged better than Tommy Lee.
But, 56 year old Tommy Lee just married some 32 year old hottie.
Tommy Lee never had to develop his mind
Of course!
72 is nothing today if you keep yourself in shape.
i got an uncle who plays tennis and golf at 92 AND volunteers 3 days a week at church.
And something tells me the drummer’s head is more baked than Jones’
Clown limo occupants. They should run for prez and vp.
Sure hope that sobriquet catches on.
I had to look it up.
too much time spent out of class as a yoot :)
I hope that sobriquet catches on too.
It’s very fitting.
I'd be very surprised if that guy sees 60.
Forgive me....I like to pull out my (blush) extraordinary command of the English language whenever possible.
Nothing to be forgiven for.
Always great to learn a new word.
And you obviously do have a great command of the English language because I’ve never even HEARD of that word before :)
I don’t know the meanings of a lot of words but at least I usually know the word!!
I remember when “Long Hair” music was derided as Bach, Beethoven, Mozart and such. “Square” music.
Interesting how things have changed over the years.
I had forgotten about that - piano concertos and the like.
If you like learning new words, I can recommend the work of S. J. Perelman. Just sit down with some of his writings and a dictionary, and you’ll find plenty of good words, and also laugh your head off. “The Most of S. J. Perelman” is going for as little as $4.99 on Amazon when I looked just now.
I shall buy off of amazon now if they have it.
Bette Midler
I don’t care what Joy Behar’s daughter does!
Enjoy!
Theres been a lot leaking out about some very pervy stuff thats been happening among the famous in particular that whole Hollywood/LA scene. Tommy is known for having a very large...appetite. Those who scream about Trump the loudest usually have something to hide.
Poor old Bette who no one’s thought of in the past 10 years needs the publicity.
This Lee character? Had to go look him up and still couldn’t care less.
