Aaron Sorkin writes poignant letter to his daughter after Trump victory (Mega-hurl Alert!)

Aaron Sorkin wrote a moving letter to his teenage daughter and her mother, Julia Sorkin, on Wednesday after Donald Trump won the presidential election.

In the letter, addressed to “Sorkin Girls” and published on Vanity Fair, the creator of The West Wing and The Newsroom wrote that he felt powerless as he watched Trump defeat Hillary Clinton, and that his daughter’s tears spurred him to action.

“Well the world changed late last night in a way I couldn’t protect us from. That’s a terrible feeling for a father. I won’t sugarcoat it — this is truly horrible,” Sorkin wrote. “It’s hardly the first time my candidate didn’t win (in fact it’s the sixth time) but it is the first time that a thoroughly incompetent pig with dangerous ideas, a serious psychiatric disorder, no knowledge of the world and no curiosity to learn has.”

The ignorance and hatred exhibited by these people is utterly astounding.

Click here if you are so led. No doubt we are going to see much more bitterness from the idiots in Hollyweird as the days and weeks progress.

But really: so what? They lost their power about 30 hours ago. Of course they are going to be bitter. They thought themselves the masters of America, and the real leaders of the world. Sorkin, Whedon, Bezos, all of their ilk...

They can either continue to trade in hate, or finally grow up and accept reality.

Rush Limbaugh is so right. Liberal are only dangerous when they are in power, when they are out of power they are loony and hilarious!

The Left is conditioned to see phantoms everywhere while ignoring the horror before them.

Like I said, the Hollywood Left donated HUGE sums of money and personal appearance time in support of the Clinton campaign. Once Hillary Clinton lost, they were psychologically crushed like me stomping on a soda can and the angst from them reached ridiculous levels.

Sorkin: you and the mother of your daughter are libs. Perhaps you both should have pro-choiced your embryo daughter before she even reached this point in her life. You were both cruel to have brought her into this world that you find so #deplorable.

If Sorkin were a real man he would quickly snatch up his daughter, his ex wife, his mistress and his closest hanger ons, put them on a private jet and fly off to somewhere “safe” Try France. They are socialist and migrant friendly.

so proud of my 18yo daughter.....she did her research, stayed engaged in the election and reached her conclusion that Trump was the better choice. As evidenced by Sorkins letter, I would argue that his emotions and reaction had more to do with his daughters tears......

“but it is the first time that a thoroughly incompetent pig with dangerous ideas, a serious psychiatric disorder, no knowledge of the world and no curiosity to learn has.”


Very revealing. The practice of calling people
pigs” became very prevalent in the late 60’s when the Hippies started their disruption of government and institutions. Many of them sold out to Socialism an started a planned process to infiltrate and destroy our Republic.

The rioting and disruption on the part of the Left (Socialists), is par for the course, while Conservatives and those on the Right stand for due process, the rule of law, and standing for our American Republic.

People who have such a hatred for our Republic have the freedom of speech guaranteed by our Constitution. The problem is that unlike the military and those entering governmental office, do not swear to uphold the Constitution. Unfortunately, those who hold these anti-American views and enter office, swear allegiance, but then subvert and work to destroy and change the same Constitutional Government they swear to defend.

Without California, the electoral vote would have been 306 to 177. There would be close to a 2:1 margin in the House and 2 fewer Democrat senators. The popular vote, including the dead folks in Philly and double voters in Miami, would have been 56.7 million Trump to 54.4 million Hillary.

NambyPamby Land = California. The rest of America remains.

They are in power in classrooms all over America, helping to produce those who rioted in the streets last evening. They cannot be removed and while there are those like me who for 25 years in NYC classrooms tried to be an antidote to the poison our numbers are getting smaller and we are being replaced with youngsters who, if not already on the progressive mindset, are ignorant of anything outside their education in classroom methods. So laugh with Rush if you will, but believe his statements at your peril.

Yeah, this is great! Now I can go to Boulder and Aspen without feeling like a Christian entering the coliseum.

An intellect that is demonically darkened. Scary to see what is going on in the mind of a reprobated person. Everything is inverted. This is what the mind of a person who can accept partial-birth abortion looks like, a person who is already a resident of Hell.

Was it as poignant as the times he was off snorting coke and smoking crack instead of handling his responsibilities as a father?
