Trump's verdict is IN on The Oscars: They were "sad." #MAGA!

Donald Trump has an explanation for Sunday night’s Oscar flub that is straight out of la la land.

The president claims the organizers spent too much time focusing on attacking him rather than working on getting the details of the show right.

“I think they were focused so hard on politics that they didn’t get the act together at the end,” Trump told Breitbart News. “It was a little sad. It took away from the glamour of the Oscars. It didn’t feel like a very glamorous evening. I’ve been to the Oscars. There was something very special missing, and then to end that way was sad.”

I'm guessing this was on Fox n Friends this morning.

She said something like "Well I'm sorry but they were spending so much time attack the President. THE PRESIDENT. That it was bound to come back at them"

She didn't watch the Oscars.

La La Land folks were all class when they relinquished the prize to moonlight. It was heartwarming to see that both groups seemed to truly care for each other.

In case I haven't said it today. Fuck the maggot.

They hardly said anything about him! It was positive, pro-unity stuff. Sure Jimmy Kimmel did a few jokes, but that's normal for every MC.

I guess they are on the "wrong" side, so have to be dissed.

The president should rise above it all and celebrate the accomplishments of this country's citizens.
