The Memo To Meryl Streep

"You and all of us in this room, really, belong to the most vilified segments in American society right now. Think about it. Hollywood, foreigners, and the press."

Ms. Streep:

You know, the last thing the American people need right now is another speech from a dried up has-been member of the Elitist Club of America 'splainin' to us hayseeds the reality of the situation from the perspective of LaLa Land.

In last night's spotlight, you seized the opportunity to prove two things to America:  (a) Just how out of touch you are with the people that actually have spent their hard earned money to reward your labor and (b) Just how big of a moron you really are.

You stood on that stage and pointed out the birthplace of all of the gold-guilded prima donnas of your industry, like all of us out here, who COME FROM THE SAME DAMN PLACES, are supposed to be impressed.  I guess you wanted to make some big splash that you and your hotsy totsy friends weren't all born in Hollywood and apparently infer that all of us out in the hinterlands here who voted for Trump were born in some fascist Nazi encampment of a land called Xenophobia.  You proved once again, that a simpleton like yourself simply cannot distinguish between an American citizen whose heritage was part of the melting pot from those who stole across the border of this country to enter illegally or those who have migrated as a part of a violent directive.

Sure, there will be millions of sheep-like Americans who will hang on your every word from last night.  There will be some that will see you as Hillary Clinton with an actual personality.

But from this northern hillbilly, I'd just as soon you hadn't taken a couple hours out of your schedule of yoga lessons, brunch at The Ritz, Pilates class and a fund raiser for the Communist Party of America to make this lecture.

Go back to your 20 seat theater in your mansion, Ms. Streep.  Sit there by yourself and watch all of the movies you made 20 years ago that no one remembers.  Make your plans for the black tie events this next week and leave America to those of us out here who actually live the life of an American, who really care about this country and got up this morning to make this land work.

In other words.  Sit down and shut the fuck up Your Highness.
