Then it was just a fluke that Democrats lost 1,042 state and federal seats this election?

What are you so anxious about? Holy shit, you (R's) won the election. The country is obviously behind you 100%. So let them go fix everything and show us how right you are.

I guess I am a little anxious. This is a historic opportunity and I'm hoping they don't screw it up.

The fruits of pouring money into the local/county/state levels and gerrymandering everything in sight for multiple cycles. The Dems have woken up and are going to do the same thing now. None of this really benefits us as citizens.
Democrats didn't pour money into the elections or ever gerrymandered? But they're going to do it now in response? ROFL. This folks is what delusion looks like.

I'm sure all those flyover country workers would be totally jazzed to work for $2 per hour, get no healthcare, and enjoy their massively polluted environment.
The Chinese seem quite content with such an arrangement.

I never said it was a good idea, just my prediction of what would happen.

And yet Gibson, who is arguably worst than Trump, sits as a peer amongst them. And I am sure more than one celeb chatted Gibson up for what is ermerging as his directoral come back.

I didn't vote for him...but I'm hoping for the best and I'm going to give him a chance before demonizing him as the second coming of Hitler.

He reminds me more of the other head of state that bragged of getting the trains to run on time but didn't.

I don't think many would argue he's worse than Trump.
That being said, I assure you as well, there are many in that room (if not the majority) that want nothing to do with Gibson.

I am relatively sure the actors and filmmakers don't pick who gets nominated for the Globes. Also he got burned last year by the host as he came up to present so it's not like he's gotten off scott free.

Did Gibson have an anti-Semitic tirade caught on tape? Not sure if I'm remembering right...

Well until his movies start making money.

Yeah. If there's one thing that the 2016 election proved, it's how much people care about what celebrities think.

Oooo! Let us know when he crosses the rubicon and you DO demonize him as the second coming of Hitler. I'd like to see what pushes you over the edge.

I'm just going to add to the laughing at the predictability and massive hypocrisy of the Trump camp.

A celebrity dares criticize Glorious Leader Trump, even if it's with grace, intellect and nuance... and sure enough, his cheerleaders rush to his defense by parroting clichés about out-of-touch celebrities, the liberal elite, and other tropes that show no independent thought.

You voted for a reality TV star with a golden apartment. You aren't in a position to talk about elite celebrities getting involved in politics.
