Gah!  I can only imagine what it must've been like for those women who chose to break it off with "The Donald."

 

Yeah, my knowledge of '90's R&B is very limited.  I bowed out of popular music right around the time gangsta rap and grunge jumped into the mainstream.

Tina Fey to Anti-White Supremacists: "Go Eat Cake"!

 

No offense, Tina, but the last time a woman told a bunch of people to go eat cake, it didn't end well.

 

But seriously.  Was she seriously telling us to stay home and eat cake instead?  Like, seriously?  Gurl.  That's what GOT us into this mess.

 

Nah, Tina, YOU eat the cake.  (I'm watching my figure.)  I'll go out and fight the F**king Nazis instead.

Yeah, this is just a gesture for the Dems but IMO it's an important one. One.) It forces the GOP to go on record as being with Donnie or against him and two.) It counters the narrative of the Dems as spineless. Let me know when one Republican is willing to jump ship.

If it actually GETS to the point, I'll give y'all two guesses as to on which side the GOP will fall...and one of them will be wrong.

 

 

They're too damn afraid to alienate Trump's voters, because, hey, a vote is still a vote.

Well, then, I'll say it: Tina Fey is as insincere as my ass is wide...and I have a VERY wide ass.

 

To me, she's your typical white female liberal (no offense, anyone).  White female liberals, particularly those who are in the public eye, are outspoken about inequality as long as the inequality affects them directly.  But, let WOC be the ones getting the shaft from the white, male, ultra-conservative establishment, and they all mysteriously develop cases of laryngitis.  (Another example would, of course, be Miss Taylor "This Next Song's About Another One of My Exes" Swift.)  Now, I'm not saying ALL white females who are liberals behave this way.  But, as the saying goes, a few rotten apples spoil the rest of the bunch; and TF is a rotten apple.

 

And think about it: in all the movies and TV shows she's participated in throughout the years, have you ever seen TF work much with WOC?  Have you?  (No, Tina, Tituss Burgess does not count.)

 

Also, she's not funny.

She's gotten much more criticism in recent years (especially after people found out about that Bossypants book) and she seems very defensive. 

 

I think one of the problems that Fey and many SNL vets have is that they still think SNL is a national touchstone and speaks to the general liberal or pseudo-liberal American. It doesn't. It hasn't in a long time. She's out of touch.
