This is hilarious. You sound just like a Republican the last 8 years.

The petulant man-child is leaving office in about 10 days.

From that, we are now in one of the most dangerous economic periods of our nations history -- because we haven't demanded more transparency from our "leaders". I don't like this tweeting one bit - but on the flip side - there is no call for actors to vilify the president-elect as they have in an attempt to undermine his presidency. That hurts everyone and our country as a whole. The "caring" dems continue to divide our nation.
Except that Trump is supposed to be unifying the nation, Streep can say what she wants as she has no position in government. The best thing Trump could have done is nothing, this is old news.

Just think. In a couple weeks Trump will be tweeting his crap under the @POTUS account.

Bull. Public stage with tens if not hundreds of millions of viewers. This thread would not exist if she had not said anything. Unifying the nation is what Trump wants and it's liberals like Streep that are doing the opposite - on purpose.

This is what I love about our 1st amendment and why it should never be silenced. It exposes greatness along with the ignorance. It will expose who is tolerant of your set in stone values and who will bully you with virtue signalling, emotions and eventually harm, to conform to them, or else pay dearly.

To Meryl Streep:
It is better to remain silent and let everyone think you are a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.

She made not one mention of the 4 who tortured a developmentally disabled boy while yelling race-based hate speech and anti-Trump rhetoric. Making him drink from a toilet. Cutting him. Apparently, that behavior is perfectly fine with her. /barf

Aside from her criticism of Trump I thought it was a pretty good speech pointing out the diversity in the audience.


Streep is just a citizen offering her opinion I think your saying applies more to someone about to become leader of the free world.
