Mormon Tabernacle Choir singer quits over Trump inauguration: 'I could never throw roses to Hitler'

A female singer from the famed Mormon Tabernacle Choir has resigned from the group to avoid performing at Donald Trump's inauguration, saying she "could never look myself in the mirror again with self-respect."

"It is with a sad and heavy heart that I submit my resignation to you and to Choir. I'm am praying that Jesus will help me get through this email before I totally break down," singer Jan Chamberlin wrote in a resignation letter that was obtained by The Salt Lake Tribune and eventually posted on Facebook.
...

She continued: "Looking from the outside in, it will appear that Choir is endorsing tyranny and racism by singing for this man... History is repeating itself; the same tactics are being used by Hitler (identify a problem, finding a scapegoat target to blame, and stirring up people with a combination of fanaticism, false promises, and fear, and gathering the funding). I plead with everyone to go back and read the books we all know on these topics and review the films produced to help us learn from these gargantuan crimes so that we will not allow them to be repeated. Evil people prosper when good people stand by and do nothing."

1. How long has she been a member?
2. How many performances has she participated in?
3. How many times has she refused to participate for any reason?

Just asking!

Too bad that this one cry baby's bad light is reflected into the whole choir, besmirching them. Same for Rockettes. Good people are having their image tarnished by a couple of bad apples.

I got to catch the Tabernacle Choir in person during their Thursday night practice a few years ago. It was AMAZING ...they warm up but singing HALF note scales! That was an evening I'll never forget...and it was just "practice." I look forward to the performance.

She’s doing a live interview and getting canonized on CNN right now.

She’s a bit nutty.
