Tonight Mike Pence went to see the Broadway hit musical, Hamilton. He was roundly booed by an audience of ill-mannered theater-goers. Who knew that people who can afford thousands of dollars (that is what it costs) to see a play about Alexander Hamilton could be so abominably rude. While a few people cheered him, most were booing. This is the low point to which the intolerant left has brought us; very low.
To add insult to injury, Brandon Victor Dixon, the actor who plays Aaron Burr, the man who murdered Hamilton in a duel and became a traitor to America, delivered an ill-informed lecture to Pence at the show's end. Can't we all visualize this group of privileged rich actors composing their insulting rant backstage during the performance? He said he and his cast members are "alarmed," as though the country just elected a tyrant. He ranted about "diversity," as though Trump and Pence are actually all the things the "fake news" lefty media say they are.
This crowd has been so thoroughly indoctrinated by the MSM, they are more afraid of a Trump administration than they are of ISIS. This can only be explained by ignorance of essential facts - as Governor, Mike Pence believed in religious freedom and was excoriated for it. But so uninformed are these people, they do not know that their beloved Obama has effected a soft tyranny these past eight years. He has governed by fiat, going around Congress most of his two terms. He has transformed America in countless ways and many millions of Americans just fought back with their votes. Shouldn't the privilege of wealth bring with it responsibility - the responsibility to be cognizant of essential facts? This audience and this cast are an American embarrassment.
So rude, so unconscionable was this theatrical show of solidarity with the intolerant Left, perhaps all of Broadway should be boycotted by sentient people.

The only thing liberal entertainers ever do is hollow out or pervert anything good. They are incapable of anything original or humorous without perversion of some kind.
A negative, dark, divisive, dangerous vision to quote some formerly famous femme de la farce.
Hamilton created the ELECTORAL COLLEGE. Guess the cast didn’t study American History when they chose their hero. Now they want to abolish it because their candidate counted on those electoral votes to take her to the Oval office.
So you’re saying “Hamilton” is told by idiots, and signifies nothing?
;^)

One would think so, but these people are ignorant. And stupid!
I wouldn’t pay even 300.00 much less 3,000.00.
IF I were to visit NYC I MIGHT go to a Disney Broadway show but that is about it.
They can keep their lousy tickets.
“Therefore I say: Know your enemy and know yourself; in a hundred battles you will never be in peril. When you are ignorant of the enemy, but know yourself, your chances of winning or losing are equal. If ignorant both of your enemy and of yourself, you are certain in every battle to be in peril.”
Sun Tzu, The Art of War
The original cast hosted a private show for Her Heinous as a fundraiser. Which was closed to the press....
I prefer “purulent jackanapes”, but to each his own.

The thing that really ticked me off the last time I went to see The Phantom, was that after the show the cast came out and solicited donations for taking care of show people with AIDS. Now I've already paid $200 for each ticket, but you have to hit me up for a donation too?!
On the contrary, you can only get tickets through resellers unless you want to book two years out, and $1000 is not unusual depending on the date. It's going to run for the foreseeable future.
The secret is to never venture above the Mason-Dixon line unless their is a very good to do so. Going to a leftist propaganda play is not one of them.
Thus die all tyrants ???
Other than that, Mr. Pence, how did you like the show?
am saying like ole William pined.... actors are simply actors, pretenders, entertainers, what used to be called court jesters.
Communists, fellow traveler Hollywood Reds, DNC brownshirts, and thugs. What a world the COM-Left media industrial complex has brought us.
Buh bye.
Should have handled that audience as Putin did when the Chechians took over that theater in Moscow except use Sarin.
Sounds like they are happy those old white men are DEAD.
Bigotry comes in all colors and their hate is plain to see.
You’d be surprised how many Broadway performers are actually from the midwest, west and south. Some of our greatest performers - and worst - have been from the Deep South. Right now my husband’s in a show with a nutty leftist. He’s from Alabama.
“...he said that his business manager paid his, and he did not know how much the rent was.”
I bet his business manager was making out like a bandit.
File an equal opportunity employment lawsuit against them for discrimination based on skin color. The people they are playing are historically white and yet their casting decision is absolutist in rejecting any white applicant. So much for frickin’ diversity.
Go back to Cuba, Vietnam, or Venezuela and tell us how wonderful the Communist world really is, libtards.
