Meryl Streep at Golden Globes

I say give the man a chance. This country will never know if a business man is indeed a good thing for the country unless we try. He is elected. Lets all get behind the President and see what happens. If it does not work out, there is always another election.

I might have been able to get behind him if it wasn't for his appalling lack of character and morals. Conservatives never defend him on these points which leads me to believe they know he's deficient that way but just don't care.

Cite? Working people voted for Trump. Not the rich or wannabe rich liberal elite. Just working people. There is enough data on the vote to confirm that anywhere.

I don't know why you're changing the topic to respect of working people. "Hollywood types" work, even if you don't like the work they do. I don't disrespect any working person for the job he does. But I'm very critical of any person who bought into trump's smoke and mirrors production. His history of scamming and mistreating his workers has been posted on this forum and in the news numerous times. Nothing I've read about him couldn't be verified because trump willingly lived his life in public.

Just as I have no personal knowledge of what it's like to be a billionaire (if indeed trump is a billionaire), he has no personal knowledge of what it's like to be a low or middle class worker. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand that.

Exactly. Hence the topic of this thread. Hollywood actors have no personal knowledge of politics or running things. Better to take your award for the good work earned and deserve and keep your own personal politics out of it. No one really gives a F$&#$ what an actor has to say politically. They have no personal experience to base it on. Unfortunately due to their social status they do have a platform to comment though.

Morals, character, judgment, temperament. These are the things that lost the election for Hillary.

Sports reporters are among the most liberal people out there so probably not surprising I've seen a number of them praising Streep.

I can't stand ESPN...for that reason. Just had that conversation with our science teacher on the way back from a meeting while ago.

Really? Then how did Trump get elected? He is a reality TV star with no personal knowledge of politics, except for the politician he bought and bragged about doing so. His status is the only reason he has a platform.

Did you think Reagan was a farce as well?

So I'm guessing by the responses no one actually watched the Golden Globes?

No. But I saw it on the "news" this morning. I can't for the life of me think of one reason (well, I can think of one) something she ... or any Hollywood type ... says is newsworthy. But CNN seems to think so and I'm sure the other "news" networks followed suit.

So. What makes you certain he doesn't care about working people? Extensive research, or just that burning misery of losing when you fully expected to win? God! That had to really, really hurt. How did you really feel when the realization that Hillary was going to tank and The Donald would win finally hit you?

Was it in the morning when you rose, fully anticipating rubbing the conservative's nose in Hillary's win, only to discover the IMPOSSIBLE happened? Argggghhh! How TOTALLY embarrassing for you...

ROFLOCAO!

Was it after the recount, or are you still hoping for a "Hillaricle"?

Yes, really. Trump ran for President. Reagan ran for President. Trump ran big businesses. Reagan was Governor. They actually did something. Meryl Streep is an actress. A good one. And that is it. Same with most all other famous actors. Good at one thing, not good at others or that is what they would be doing. And, more importantly, be able to take with experience about it, not just opinions.

Working class means high school diploma, no college degree

Which is a broader economic category than many people realize. It includes everything from janitors to licensed heavy equipment operators, chemical operators, coal miners, truck drivers, welders, heating and cooling workers and owners and etc. Some of these people can approach six figures if they get enough O/T.
