On Really Really Not Liking Sally Field

As the public dealt with "comedienne" Samantha Bee referring to Ivanka Trump as a crude name for female genitalia, Hollyweird got into the game to further Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Sally Field, who won notoriety playing "The Flying Nun" (1967-70), chimed into to controversy with a Tweet which doubled down on the insult and embraces the obscenity as emblematic of "The Resistance".  Maybe we'll excuse it as still battling against the clean image typecasting of Gidget and The Flying Nun fifty years ago.

Field was famous for emoting "You like me" when accepting the 1984 Best Actress Oscar for "Places in the Heart".



 That speech was premised on the fact that Ms. Field really really wanted respect.  Rest assured, aside from her  looney left politics we really, really don't like you if this is the way that a celebutard like feels entitled to act.

Some Thoughts Should Be Kept Close to the ScotteVest (sic)

Scott Jordan is an entrepreneur who developed a line of clothing which allows for fashionably carrying gadgets within the garments.  Jordan even went on ABC's Shark Tank in 2012 in a bid to raise funds for his technology enabled clothing (but Jordan  rejected the the offers). 

ScotteVest snowballed into a $10 million company by 2015.

ScotteVest's pricey e-commerce product line  were often seen advertised on Fox News, presumably to appeal to geeky traveling businessmen who tired of fumbling gadgets when they went through TSA lines.

ScotteVest CEO Scott Jordan may have unraveled this fashion market niche by oversharing on social media.  Scott Jordan had developed a reputation of being an outspoken CEO on social media, pumping products and pimping his progressive politics. However Jordan recently shared on Facebook a smarmy post which revealed marketing strategy while denigrating his customers.

While one could certainly see a small time celebutard who is full of himself to contemptuously sneer at the little people on whom you've made your millions while taking a chair lift in Ketchum ski resort.  But it is almost unfathomable that he would share this "burn" on social media. It really makes one wonder, to use Jordan's parlance, who is the "f**king idiot?

After Jordan's Facebook faux-pas festered for a few days, the ScotteVest CEO posted an incomplete apology on Twitter, which linked to the original Facebook post. Unfortunately, the Facebook post had been deleted.  

No doubt that this story certainly won't make ScotteVest's media buzz page. But the internet never forgets. The question is whether ScotteVest's customers will be willing to forget that they are considered to be gullible f**king idiots" by the guy profiting from their sales.

Social Media is a wonderful way for companies to reach customers. One need not be "Always Be Closing" when sharing on social media and genuineness is a way to cement bonds with fickle customers of an expensive, niche products.  But denigrating the demographic which lined one's pockets is an odd way to reach out to customers.  A smart CEO would have kept his crass critiques of customers closer to his ScotteVest. 

Enjoy your  après-ski canapés and hope that your cup is not forever full of sour grapes.

The Raging Bull****-- Robert DeNiro Covers President Trump

Robert De Niro has been outspoken to his opposition to the 45th President.  He latched unto an allusion pushed by "Fire and Fury" author Michael Wolff of Donald Trump being the Emperor who has no clothes.

De Niro's earthy opinions expressed at National Board of Review Annual Awards is in line with the actor's animus against Mr. Trump.  During the 2016 Presidential General Election campaign, De Niro cut an ad for "Vote Your Future" in which DeNiro, best known for playing mobsters and low lifes,  claimed that he wanted to punch Trump in the face.

After Oprah's soaring speech at the Golden Globes, hopes were lifted that entertainers would be more articulate when pontificating on politics.  But that it too much to express from many celebutards.  Consider his rousing remarks last spring when De Niro addressed the Brown University commencement, when he urged graduates to not leave his alma mater and go into a "tragic, dumb-ass country."  

Regarding De Niro's current scathing statement about Mr. Trump-- does it take one to know one or was that just Raging Bulls***?

Barbra Streisand Chides President Trump about Kennedy Center Honors

Alas, the 2017 Kennedy Center Honors was not just about recognizing career contributions to the arts, but was serving as a platform for artists to make political statements to and about President Donald Trump.

James Woods pointed out that the vast majority of stars in the entertainment industry  have reveled in rebuking the 45th President, so why in the world would you subject yourself to attend in order to be abused.

As we enter into the Awards season, in which celebutards congratulate themselves and take turns exchanging engraved Lucite blocks or gold plated statuettes, it will be interesting if they are retrospect about the rampant sins of sexual abuse in the entertainment industry.  But it is more likely that they will assume that being in the limelight makes them illuminated to pontificate about politically correct policies which are commonplace in Hollyweird (sic), a.k.a. Hollywood.

Hollyweird's Good Willful Ignorance Hunting

Much like elites on the East Coast did with the Clintons, no one seemed to know anything about the misdeeds of power brokers until they are of no use, then it is time to proverbially throw them under the bus. In Hollyweird, it is apt to label it as Good Willful Ignorance Hunting.

D-List Celebutard Tries to Get Ahead By Overstepping Comedic Line Towards Trump

Many progressives have shown difficulty in accepting Donald J. Trump as President of the United States.  House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA 8th) can not bring herself to say "President Trump".  When former First Lady/Senator/Secretary of State Hillary Clinton (D-NY) is not engaged in chardonnay therapy, she was attempting to front "the Resistance" as part of a inchoate attempt at remaining politically viable.

Celebrities certainly have had a tough time coping with not having their candidate win the White House in 2016.   Of late, there was Robert De Niro's rousing graduation analogy at Brown University that the newly minted Ivy League alums are now entering a world that is a "tragic dumb assed comedy."

Hyperbolic histrionics does not sate some from Hollyweird. Some celebutards feel compelled to push their consternation to the brink.  At the enormous Women who Hate Trump march the day after inauguration, Madonna intimated that she had dreams of bombing the White House after hearing of Trump's victory.  Not to be outdone, D-List comedienne Kathy Griffin posed for publicity shoots holding a bloody facsimile of America's 45th President of the United States, which she then posted on social media. Smooth move Ex-Lax.

No doubt, Griffin thought that she would be playing to her progressively oriented base and perhaps even make it off the D-List through political notoriety. After all, her bloody head pose echoed the antipathy of "The Resistance". She had the reputation of being a crass, shock type comedienne. Moreover, she could claim artistic freedom and the need to challenge boundaries in the name of comedy.  Not so much.

Consider the comedic rodeo rider who dared wear an Obama mask while maintaining the ring which caused a week's controversy and caused him to be put into diversity training. It did not help that Griffin's  graphic art echoed actual executions as infamously performed by ISIS. The country still seems to have some respect for the office of President.  One should not discount the reputation of the messenger.  Griffith is not known for taking overt political stances, and this stunt may have been seen as distasteful grandstanding by an opportunist.

Social media turned against Kathy Griffin for her ghoulish pose.  Sponsors and venues quickly started to cancel on her. Even Senator Al Franken (D-MN) was said to be backing away from a associations with with Griffin.  The Secret Service may now be quite investigating Griffin's graphic wise crack. 

What's more, is that Griffin's grotesquerie made Mr. Trump somewhat sympathetic, even to ardent opponents of the Trump Administration.   Former Governor Mitt Romney (R-MA) could point to the gross graphic and condemn the repugnant and vile message in his quixotic hope for civic civility.  Mr. Trump tweeted in response to the controversy that his eleven year old son was having a hard time with this sick humor.

When it was clear that the public tide had turned against Griffin, she quickly posted on Instagram an apology.





Liberal leaning news organizations barely covered the controversy because one of the news most important powers is the power to ignore the inconvenient or incongruent.

It is difficult to discern the best course of action.  On the one hand, while I strive to be forgiving and let bygones to be bygones, it seems inappropriate to think "Aw shucks, it was nothing."   This is not a typo tweet like "covfefe"  or a knee jerk post which one regrets immediately after hitting the send button.  TMZ showed Griffin in a full blown photo shoot, with lighting, make-up and props. This was pre-meditated so to magnanimously dismiss it invites future pot shots from an opposition which seems intent to throw anything up on the wall to see if it sticks.

On the other hand, Mr. Trump has displayed a churlish reputation in the past and has used antagonisms with others (Rosie O'Donnell, Megyn Kelly, Jeb Bush, Ted Cruz, et ali.) as a means to brandish himself while sullying others.  The Trump Administration needs to put some wins on the board in Washington aside from a SCOTUS pick and reversing 18 prior Administrative Actions.

May Kathy Griffin be benched on the D-List without needlessly encouraging others to go down that same repugnant road.
