LOL it sounds like he's expecting to be assassinated ,which honestly I can see happening...

 

Considering how many people have spoken about such a thing so gleefully, it's not a big surprise if they think it could happen.

Trump has bases covered if anybody wants to take him out. It didn't long for him to reach Joe Stalin Cold War levels of paranoia.

To be honest, I suspect they had the same arrangement for Obama's inauguration but kept it on the down low. Trump loves reality show style drama so he probably had someone leak this to get his cult all worked up.

Trump Nation has to be the biggest bunch of fools on Earth not to see hypocrises such as this coming from their leader.  I mean, it's the most blatant [!@#$%^&*] I've ever seen.  But, instead of holding Trump accountable, what do they do?  They look away and mumble the same old jive about "Crooked Hillary" and us needing to "get over it."

 

Frankly, I'm beginning to see that stuff like the fact that Trump is just as much in Wall Street's pockets as Hillary (if not more so) never mattered at all to Trump Nation.  All they ever cared about was getting a President who wasn't Black or a woman.  Point blank, period.

 

Otherwise, what working class individual in his or her right mind would believe a(n alleged) billionaire who's married to an ex-supermodel and lives in a penthouse has their best interests at heart?

 

The Wall Street attacks worked because they fit into a narrative of "What is Hillary hiding?" A narrative that the media had been hogwild over for over 20 years. Trump's own ties to Wall Street were either ignored, or the person who voted most on that issue assumed Trump could never be as compromised as she was, because of endless focus on her speeches and transcripts and where are the transcripts. 

 

A lot of the anti-Wall Street votes he got were likely also based on anti-Semitism. It's too bad that Bernie, who I imagine has faced that more than a few times over the years, did not realize the trap he was setting with his endless obsession over the matter. 

Cheryl Lynn attacked Anita Baker on Twitter and got blocked, so she's got some issues of her own to deal with. That aside, Jennifer Holliday will do just about anything to make money and has some Trump like qualities of her own. When the film version of Dreamgirls came out, she made some backhanded comments toward Jennifer Hudson and the film. She was off the scene for years because of being too full of herself and difficult to work with. Again, it's all about the money for her.

The one that upset me most was 3 Doors Down. The 13 year old seventh grade girl in me who loved "Kryptonite" and "Here Without You" is devastated. Performing for Bush is one thing, but this is different. Sigh. 

Well, as of today both houses of Congress have voted to repeal the ACA. All those people who were too obtuse to realize that the ACA and Obamacare are indeed the same thing, will now come to another startling realization that elections truly have consequences beyond what they could ever have imagined.

Say what?  LOL!!  Why, in the world, would anyone go after Anita Baker?

It sounds like it's still going to be a mess.

Well, now I'm confused.  According to the billboard article, Carl, the Cheryl Lynn on Twitter isn't even the real Cheryl Lynn.

Yeah I don't know if this is the real her or not who said that about Jennifer Holliday.

Cheryl Lynn tweeted something to Anita Baker and when she didn't get a response, she checked Anita's profile and found out that Anita had blocked her. Well, that set her off and she sent a tweet asking if Anita blocked her because she could sing her down on stage, then Anita started sub tweeting about Cheryl. It was really weird.

But Cheryl, through her reps, said the Twitter account was a fake.  That's according to billboard and people.com.

 

Good Lawd.  No wonder I stay away from Twitter.

 

(It figures, though, that it's become Trump's de-facto presidential hotline.)

There are some pictures on the account of Cheryl in her dressing room before shows, so I'm inclined to think the account is real and the reps are just covering for her craziness. If it's not her, she's got one incredibly determined imposter that has managed to avoid being banned by Twitter.

It looks like Jennifer Holiday is going to do it and has the nerve to invoke Marian Anderson.

 

"Ms. Holliday said she was asked on Wednesday if she would sing at the concert scheduled for Jan. 19, and she agreed, seeing the request as similar to those she received to sing at the White House during past Republican and Democratic presidencies. “I just thought of the history part of it, and about singing on the mall where Marian Anderson paved the way for me to sing as a black American,” she said, referring to a 1939 concert that Ms. Anderson, a popular singer, performed from the Lincoln Memorial after being denied permission to sing at Constitution Hall because she was black."
