"Singing is what brought your family together," CNN anchor Anderson Cooper replied. "Yeah," she chuckled.

"So, now that you don't have singing..." Cooper followed.

"Now, I have to be careful because we've had so much taken away from us by this administration that I'm not willing to let them take my family relationships away," Ronstadt continued. "My family -- the parts that are Republican were fairly rational Republicans. We don't have that in our current White House."

It's unclear exactly when the interview took place; the network released clips from the sitdown over the weekend.

The Grammy-winning artist went into detail about the "great parallels" she saw between the rise of Trump and Nazi Germany and how both leaders, according to her, were "uncontrollable."

"By the time he got established, he put his own people in place and stacked the courts and did what he had to do to consolidate his power," Ronstadt elaborated. "And, we got Hitler and he destroyed Germany, he destroyed centuries of intellectual history forward and backward."

Cooper replied, "I think a lot of people, though, would be surprised to hear comparisons between what happened then and now."

"If you read the history, you won't be surprised. It's exactly the same," Ronstadt doubled down. "Find a common enemy for everybody to hate. I was sure that Trump was going to get elected the day he announced, and I said it's gonna be like Hitler, and the Mexicans are the new Jews. And, sure enough, that's what he delivered, you know."

There was an old TV show called "Playboy After Dark," (I think) That had Hugh Hefner and friends hanging out at a cocktail like party. On one show Ronstadt was the music guest and she was smoking hot!

As they say, No matter how hot she is, somebody is out there who is tired of her crap. No doubt, even Jerry Brown got tired of it.

My bad. I meant George Lucas, of course. Let me rephrase..."From 1983 to 1988 Linda Ronstadt was engaged to George Lucas, director of 'Star Wars' " (Source: Wikipedia).

Thanks for catching my error.

It caught my eye because I just saw a show on the making of Gone With the Wind and Cukor was the first director on that film.

At the risk of going off on a tangent . . .

I read somewhere that Cukor was dismissed from his director post because Gable didn't want to work with a "fairy."

Oh shut up, Linda! How dare you compare our President’s efforts to secure our border from the lawlessness of YOUR people to the genocide of people for belonging to a religion. Take your @ss back across the border and spend the rest of your days living in the $hithole your family left. It’s clear that you don’t appreciate ANY of the blessings being an American has afforded you. In fact, YOU are one of the idiots responsible for the progressive shift in this Country! Thank God you never earned a cent from me!
