Actress Sydney Sweeney’s Euphoria character, Cassie Howard, implied her political stance during Sunday’s episode of the popular HBO drama, replying, “I’m not retarded” after being told she sounds “like a Democrat.”
“You sound like a Democrat,” an off-camera podcast host can be heard telling Cassie, to which Sweeney’s Euphoria character replies with laughter, before responding, “I’m not retarded.”
The line came as Euphoria fans saw Cassie go from stay-at-home wife to OnlyFans star in episode 5 of the show’s third — and most likely final — season, which resulted in Sweeney’s character gaining 50,000 subscribers and subsequently landing several podcast appearances.

Today’s lesson in Strip Poker.
I’ve never watched that show so I’m asking this out of ignorance of it, but are they making her character out to be a hateful right wing bigot or what? Hollywood loves to do that to republicans.
This is going to get the hate against her turned up to 11.
Ha haaaaaas!
Garbage show.
The libs are already flipping out.
But she didn’t write the script...............
I don’t know...............
There’s something I like about this gal!
