I have always loved the Grammys but to have artists read the Fire and Fury book killed it. Don’t ruin great music with trash. Some of us love music without the politics thrown in it.

Dear Ambassador Haley, you can start your own version of the Grammys with Trump supporting artists like Ted Nugent,Antonio Sabàto, Jr. , and Scott Baio. I am sure it will be a ratings winner.

DU is lulling the GOP into a false sense of security by posting amusing items like the OP.

DU HAS YOU RIGHT WHERE WE WANT YOU!

That said, one can easily think about more than one news item per day. In fact, you did just that when you thought about both Nikki Haley's tweet AND about Kabul! Congrats...

the people in this country DO care about what our celebrities/music stars and fans/sports figures think and say politically. Case in point? The deranged idiot we have in the White House. You think he got there because he wasn't famous?

So, I for one support people like Cher, Snoop Dog, whoever the hell wants to point out how awful this administration is.

Regarding the war in Afghanistan, I was under the impression that the "Mission Accomplished" meme from our last ignoramus of a Republican president meant war was over in Afghanistan. Huh. Who knew it wasn't.

"WHO FUCKING CARES!???"
Seems everyone on this thread, including yourself, cares enough to comment if nothing else.

But I get it... anyone who disagrees with your premise is is simply playing into trump's hands. And no doubt, you'll certainly provide us with objective evidence to support that allegation... else we may be lead to believe you simply imagined a conclusion.

They reward shit. I mean, Ed fucking Sheeran and Bruno Mars? Blecch.

I was happy to see Jason Isbell won, as did Aimee Mann, but most of the rest was utter crap.
