America is so celebrity-crazed

It is going to take celebrities to take trump down. Not politicians. Not even the people. This is a reflection of who America is right now. It's going to take slickness, beauty, wealth. It's all we have to work with now to go toe to toe with Trump, Ivanka, Melania.

In that vein, so grateful to Chrissy Teigen, the cast of the beloved show Hamilton, Beyoncé, for speaking out and speaking up. We need them right now.

It occurs to me we may have dodged a worse bullet. Back when it looked like Hillary would win, I heard talk of how a worse tyrant in the form of Trumps son, would be waiting in the wings. Someone smarter with more impulse control. In the end, I think we can bring this guy down. We just have to hang in there together

dance off or something to determine who is in Washington.

Let's look for some sane intelligent politicians who are already out there to run instead and they do not have to fit any Hollywood standard of beauty or wealth either IMO
I prefer experience and substance over slickness
