Trump wants Hamilton actor to apologize.

Geez, if Trump wants an apology from everyone who exercises their First Amendment rights to disagree with him, where is he going to have the time to perform his duty as President of the US?



'Hamilton' member gives Pence earful. Trump: "Apologize!"

NEW YORK (AP) — President-elect Donald Trump on Saturday demanded an apology from the cast member who gave Mike Pence an onstage earful from about equality.

Actor Brandon Victor Dixon told Pence after the curtain call that multiracial and multicultural cast is concerned about the Trump administration.

"We, sir, are the diverse America who are alarmed and anxious that your new administration will not protect us, our planet, our children, our parents, or defend us and uphold our inalienable rights," said Dixon, who plays Aaron Burr, the nation's third vice president. "We truly hope this show has inspired you to uphold our American values and work on behalf of all of us. All of us."

Pence ducked out before Dixon finished the unprecedented message but heard the full remarks from the hallway outside the auditorium.

"Our wonderful future V.P. Mike Pence was harassed last night at the theater by the cast of Hamilton, cameras blazing," Trump tweeted Saturday. "The theater must always be a safe and special place. The cast of Hamilton was very rude last night to a very good man, Mike Pence. Apologize!"

3. I can't believe what he said.

The theater should be a safe place? Does he not know his history?

He's afraid of critical words. We're afraid of what the 2nd Amendment is doing to this country. And now with the NRA running amok, not even our elementary schools are safe.

7. Just wait until the Inaugural

Going to make W's 2001 parade look like mayberry RFD. Or maybe Trump will go full nazi and like the route with stormtroopers.

The Bush yrs are going to seem like a walk in the park compared to the horrors that are about to descend upon this Country.

4. I'm Surprised That Trump Or Pence Didn't Say Something Like The Following....

Who was that guy. No one ambushes me or my VP and embarrasses us. I'll make sure that he never works again in this town. I'll make an example of him so no one dares to ambush us like this again.

I'm thinking that this is what they were really thinking.

However, it's bad enough that they are wanting this actor to apologize.

This is what we are in store for the next 4 years folks.

6. I think they're going to get a rude awakening. Neither one of them

seems to understand that they are now government figures, or understand what that entails.

5. Safe place?

Trump / pence has turned the whole country into an unsafe place. Words about how the cast is diverse and they are afraid is reasonable. Trump / Pence has encited violence against everyone not like them. They were encouraging violence against Hillary.

8. Hold your breath for that apology, Cheeto.

That cast member was far too gracious to Pence, as far as I'm concerned.

15. I don't see anything wrong with what Dixon said.
