Because it underscores the hypocrisy of Sarandon and too many who used the excuse that if only Hillary were the 'right' woman. For all practical purposes, Elizabeth Warren should be that 'right' candidate for Sarandon and others on the Left who screamed and cheered for Warren back in 2016. But then, . . .

Oops! They got their wish. Warren is in the race and what do we hear: She's a Republican retread.

Not a good look. As for Sarandon and her acolytes? They merely sound like the fake revolutionaries they always were. Because this ain't 2016 and we saw this picture show before.

but in relation to her latest attack which was supposed to be againt Warren, her attack stressed the status of being a former Republican. That was the case for Warren in 2016 as well, obviously. It would be strange if Warren being a Repub once is suddenly an issue when it wasn't one in 2016.
Sarandon is simply a hypocrit. As others have already pointed out, those in 2016 who said they'd like a woman to be President, they just don't want it to be Clinton (easily the most qualified candidate in my lifetime) and even preferred a Trump win, were just full of bs. Because it's obvious now when they make up excuses to attack the current female candidates.
Nothing wrong with supporting who you prefer, just don't make up bs.

but it is another to criticize a candidate that you once touted for something that was true when you touted them. She was a former Republican in 2016 just like she is now.

who trashed Hillary at every opportunity then voted for Stein. Hillary told us all exactly what Trump and the dictators would do to this nation and the world, and she was right. Sarandon can stop pretending like she cares about what happens to anyone but herself.

Thanks for posting.

All those people who said they'd vote for Warren in a heartbeat if she ran. The ones who insisted everything is about policy when it wasn't and isn't.
