How does that make endorsing a child rapist OK? What's the time limit at which liberals think the rape of a child is OK? 10 years? 15 years? How long?

The only lack of consent I have heard of resulted in Bill Clinton paying nearly a million dollars to his victim.
It wasn't that he was getting their consent. It was that as a star and a billionaire he felt entitled and confident that women wouldn't object.

Bill Clinton didn't pay a settlement to someone claiming to have been raped. Paula Jones never accused Bill Clinton of rape.

I also don't remember her using her "star power" to talk about this one:

Same reason she made up a story that all of Hollywood is being deported because they are immigrants. She obviously doesn't pay attention to politics, because she sounded misinformed.

Yes actually he did. Anyone with eyes & ears that function know it to be true, it's on video for all eternity. Living in an alternate reality does not change that fact.

Exactly! Apparently Trump and his supporters care quite a bit. I mean, he not only tweeted insults about Alec Baldwin and more recently complained about the ratings for Celebrity Apprentice, he now is tweeting that Meryl Streep is an overrated actor! I just hope North Korea really doesn't have a nuclear weapon, because maybe Trump will sent a tweet early one morning calling Kim Jong-un a little twerp.

I wish this were funny, but I'm not laughing. The man is unhinged, immature and thin-skinned and cannot control his impulses. He keeps denying intelligence reports which clearly state that Russia interfered in our recent election under orders from Putin to discredit Hillary Clinton, which proves he's more concerned about his "brand" than he is about our security.

It's a miracle. . . she was instantly cured and had no trouble remember her damaging and anti-patriotic voice of 'no rhyme or reason'.

What did she accomplish? She validated the stupidity of those who can't accept their conniving candidate lost the election.

The discontented losers will continue their senseless rants about Trump because they are clones of their cronies.
We had eight long years of reading the most heinous lies and insults about Obama.
Thanks for the lessons.
It would be a shame if they were wasted, wouldn't it?

Of course, all of this is just a deflection from the fact that it's the Trump supporters starting all of the "Meryl Streep is a meany" threads.

Why can't y'all just take the higher ground and ignore her?

And then she mocked a whole group of people, including myself. WTH?
She also insulted half of America by saying the same about Football.

He & his followers are the textbook definition of pansies. One day they may learn to grow up.

Separate the phoney-land of movies from the real world, quite the difference.
Shes a fellow American that spoke her mind and for doing so the rightwing cult is up in arms that she would have the audacity to criticize his magnificence. is this the way that great America is going to be,speak your mind and get to be the recipient of hate,venom and vitriol? This kind of attitude is what probably goes on in places like North Korea.

The simple fact is that this is a gesture that Trump was using with completely able-bodied individuals before the "infamous" video, which leads credibility to Trump's claims that he wasn't mocking the individual's disability but merely the individual's "groveling."

Donald Trump's 'impression' of a disabled reporter may have been his 'default' put down | Daily Mail Online

But, of course, leftist media and celebrities won't acknowledge this fact as it goes against their narrative against Trump.
