In addition to calling the former vice president a charisma-free asshole, Bale also thanked Satan for providing the inspiration to channel Cheney in director Adam McKays divisive biopic.

Satan probably inspired him to do this, too. Christian Bale arrested for 'assault on mother and sister'| The Independent. https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/news/christian-bale-arrested-for-assault-on-mother-and-sister-874851.html
Bale, who was arrested just hours after The Dark Knights European premiere, denied the allegation against him at the time. The assault apparently consisted of shouting obscenities at his mother after she insulted his wife and not any type of physical attack, as Cheney seemed to insinuate. British authorities ultimately decided to dismiss the charges due to insufficient evidence.

(53,410 posts)She inherited his mean streak as well as her mothers. Her mother is Lynn Cheney who used to be a regular pundit and commentator on TV. She was every bit as loathsome as Ann Coulter. She used to advocate for history books in schools to only talk about the positive things about our country and ignore anything negative. She actually wrote some herself and is probably still writing them.
Shes also a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute. In my opinion shes in the business of dumbing down the very people who support Trump. Only shes quite active in her efforts to do it to the rest of us too by insinuating right wing teachings in schools.
They are a nasty family to say the least.

Not to mention I don't know how Bale gets a pass for saying this kind of shit. Satan only killed 10 and that was on a bet with god. Dick killed in the six figures.

(31,261 posts)What was the bet with God and who were killed?
Christianity got it's roots from ancient Mesopotamian society and rituals, everything, including the concept of a single God, a savior, a virgin birth, a crucifixion, a Resurrection, the works. What happened is that storytelling was modified over time to conform to the needs of the culture that told the stories. The stuff is fascinating to read about. But I never spend anytime on Satan or demons because of my firm belief that evil develops and grows as a function of people's minds. A child is born pure, if the baby of the most vile racist couple was isolated from the racist indoctrination and allowed to grow up with a baby from another race, the two would most likely act like siblings.

(26,047 posts)To grift money from him, and he yelled at them, and they ran off to teh cops and press? That time, Liz, when it was thrown out because there was zero evidence because they lied? And, he decided not to press charges against them for slander and libel, that time?
He acted like a dick once on a movie set and apologized and made up for what he did, and that is a time when you can say Christian Bale acted like a dick. The thing with his sister and mom? There is a reason he was estranged from them BEFORE this happened.
