NOMINEES: 

 

Joe Scarborough Trashes Trump’s “Unrelenting Bigotry”

“There are a couple things that I thought were extraordinary that you wouldn’t see in other State of the Unions, unless they were Donald Trump’s. The first, of course, was just the unrelenting bigotry, the lies, the attacking of one group specifically, the Somalis, Somali-Americans. That’s the sort of thing that, oh, you know, I’m not going to talk about fascism or Nazism. You just read history and see what type of regimes will pick one or two groups and blame all of America’s ills on those groups.”
— Host Joe Scarborough on MS NOW’s Morning Joe, February 25.

 

Jimmy Kimmel: Trump’s “Angry Speech” Like a “Christmas Message From the Grinch”

“It was an angry speech. The theme of tonight’s speech was all foreigners are murderers….He bragged about ending DEI. He bragged about kicking two million people off food stamps. It was like a Christmas message from the Grinch. Trump applauded the efforts of a World War II vet who liberated an internment camp, at the same time he is building new ones here in the United States.”
— Jimmy Kimmel on ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live!, February 24.

 

Robert De Niro: How Can You “Love Our Country” Now? 

“Tragically, we’re now in a country of by and for a handful of dishonest, greedy, and cruel authoritarians. So - love our country? Let me ask you: Can you love a country where our neighbors are shot down in the streets by masked government thugs? Can you love a country that denies healthcare for tens of millions of our fellow citizens? Can you love a country that ends contributions to sick and starving people around the world, causing hundreds of thousands of preventable deaths, many of them innocent children?...The bottom line is that I feel betrayed by my country.”
— Actor Robert De Niro at Defiance.org’s “State of the Swamp” event, February 24.
