Just showed her on MSNBC.
Since she was instrumental at putting the kids in cages, what is her gripe now?

(30,481 posts)"You know, some people feel that Donald Trump will bring the revolution immediately. If he gets in, then things will really explode."
She followed that up with this:
"If you think that it's pragmatic to shore up the status quo right now, then you're not in touch with the status quo"
She then went on to endorse a candidate who couldn't even pull two million votes in a national election.
Sarandon one hundred percent pushed for Trumps policies.

(16,548 posts)Who has consistently said and done things that make her look like a clown. Shes also wrong- a lot. Backed Edwards in 2004 and in 2008. Her involvement in all phases of 2016 speaks for itself. Shes a cartoon character spewing twaddle. And a has been.
So, the problem here isnt really that other people have issues with Susie, its that you, after all that has transpired, do not.

"From the start, Donald Trump has built his campaign on prejudice and paranoia. He is taking hate groups mainstream and helping a radical fringe take over the Republican party. His disregard for the values that make our country great is profoundly dangerous.
Its a disturbing preview of what kind of President hed be.
And thats what I want to make clear today: A man with a long history of racial discrimination, who traffics in dark conspiracy theories drawn from the pages of supermarket tabloids and the far, dark reaches of the internet, should never run our government or command our military. Ask yourself, if he doesnt respect all Americans, how can he serve all Americans?
Now, I know that some people still want to give Trump the benefit of the doubt. They hope that he will eventually reinvent himself that theres a kinder, gentler, more responsible Donald Trump waiting in the wings somewhere.
Because after all, its hard to believe anyone let alone a nominee for president could really believe all the things he says.
But heres the hard truth, there is no other Donald Trump. This is it."

Tatiana
(14,167 posts)An apology would be nice and an acknowledgment of her mistake, but we didn't get one from Comey and I doubt we will get one from her either. Nevertheless, we need EVERYONE to be out fighting and protesting this administration. Even ones who might share some responsibility for the current situation.
Especially the ones that share some responsibility for the installation of this fascist regime.

(14,093 posts)You know what would be even better, Susan? Not having this stuff happen in the first fucking place and not having to protest it.
LanternWaste
(37,748 posts)So the energized protesting is not a great thing?
Or are we simply reading into that statement anything we want to...?
I'm guessing it's the second, but then again, I'm not beholden to my bias.
John Fante
(3,479 posts)A great thing? Fuck no.
Hillary as POTUS = a great thing.
Protesting atrocities like family seperation and the Muslim ban = not great at all.

(5,272 posts)protesting the DOJ? Do we need more bodies, or less bodies doing that work?
You can have legitimate disagreements with her politics and you can think she's been quite wrong, though I would assume, not really in the case of protesting the DOJ. I'm not sure why the next step is that we have to assume those who are wrong(though presumably fighting from their convictions) are bad people. Its true, they might be, if there is such a thing exactly. They may be operating cynically, with some other motivation than what they say, but just deciding Sarandon isn't sincere, and that she's just a hater who wants to make her mark by sabotaging democratic politicians is doing a whole lot of reading into the situation based on feelings...based on wanting to find fault with her character so that you can have righteous fury about it.
She never advocated putting children in cages. Nor do I think people saw the potential for Trump, who still seems like an albatross for the Republican party, to be so backed in lock-step by it...although that did fray in this case.

(298,074 posts)ssarandon and stein's LIES are upsetting. I knew it at the time and here we are.. they had a definite impact on us losing our Democracy and our environment to Fascists.
It pissed me off when those who have no clue try to defend them. They need to be accountable.. they have no remorse and will most certainly be out there RATFUCKING in 2020.
