If Donald Trump is waiting for an apology from the cast of “Hamilton,” he will have to continue to wait.

Actor Brandon Victor Dixon, who plays Aaron Burr in the celebrated musical, told “CBS This Morning” on Monday that “there's nothing to apologize for.” Dixon gave Vice President-elect Mike Pence an onstage earful about equality at the end of Friday’s performance. …

I should have known.

I havent been to a play since I was revolted by RENT. I stick to small, local, classic plays that I know what I am getting. The modern stuff is all PC trash, historical revisionism, and communist utopianism.

Sick of rolling over to the crazy leftist fascists! It was an inappropriate venue and it was not a dialogue! It was a one way form of bullying! And we have had it!

IIRC Burr was in the process of trying to lead some Freebooters in the attempt to take over Mexico. Imagine if that had worked out.

There’s no nice face in liberalism. The protected class believe they get a pass with every kind of dishonourable behaviour.

They also run to the media for further exposure of their leftist attitudes. Then the media presents a one sides portrayal of what they did.

Certainly. We should take our cue from Mr. Pence, who reacted quite appropriately to the whole thing. He didn’t engage this clown or respond to his hissy fit. He simply ignored him and walked away.

No apology to the rest of audience who had to listen to his rant not meant for them?

It’s all bout him, what he thinks is right or wrong, needs and apology or doesn’t?

Hoping God gets a hold of him soon.

I honestly have very little problem with what he said. Of course it was nonsense and I agree with none of it. However he certainly has a right to express his opinion. He probably chose a poor time and place for a political speech, but really that’s all he did - make a speech. Compare what he did to the idiots out there rioting in protest of the election results. I have to say that in terms ofexpressing political disagreement, this guy did it in a more nearly correct way.

He should apologize to the VP for turning his night at the theater into a less than pleasant experience, but he really doesn’t need to apologize for the content of the speech. The Constitution does guarantee free speech rights to everyone, even moonbat liberals. The day we try to deny this right, we become no better than the moonbats who want to shout down opposing opinions.

Besides, I think Mr. Pence is tough enough tohandle listening to a few minutes of a moonbat’s rant. He won’t need to slink off to his “safe space” and play with his coloring books like the SJW snowflakes did after the election.
