AnotherPat sent us the link to Newsbusters<\/a> which reports that “Miss America Contestants Asked to Condemn President Trump”. I don’t watch that fluffy stuff, so it didn’t bother me one bit. What Miss America contestants think about politic rates right up there with how much I care about Hollywood’s predictions of the end days of Global Warming;<\/p>\n

It began with a question asked by judge Jordin Sparks to Miss Missouri, Jennifer Davis, about the multiple investigations into whether the Trump campaign colluded with the Russians – did Miss Davis think the Trump campaign was innocent or guilty? She said, \u201cInnocent.\u201d The crowd responded with mostly cheers. She said there wasn\u2019t enough evidence but if the campaign proves to be guilty, the Justice Department should punish accordingly.<\/p>\n

[…]<\/p>\n

Miss Texas, Margana Wood, was asked by Jess Cagle about the Charlottesville protest with the KKK, white supremacists, and Antifa. Should Trump have said there were good people on both sides of the protest, he asked. Miss Wood gave a boilerplate liberal answer \u2013 Trump should have labeled the white supremacists as terrorists and made a statement sooner to make all Americans feel safe. She didn\u2019t mention the terrorist actions of Antifa, though.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I guess the resulting Miss America, formerly Miss South Dakota, won after she was asked about Trump pulling out of the Paris climate Treaty;<\/p>\n

Menounos: 195 countries signed the Paris Agreement, in which each country sets non-binding goals to reduce man made climate change. The U.S. is withdrawing from the agreement citing negligible environmental effects and negative economic impact. Good decision, bad decision? Which is it, and why?<\/p>\n

Miss North Dakota: I do believe it’s a bad decision, once we reject that we take ourselves out of the negotiation table. And that\u2019s something we really need to keep in mind. There is evidence that climate change is existing so whether you believe it or not, we need to be at that table and I think it\u2019s just a bad decision on behalf of the United States.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Whatever. She’s not President, who cares.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
