The Feckless and the Clueless



I was so happy to check my DVR and find a new episode of Full Frontal with Samantha Bee. Thank you TBS for not listening to our rotting pumpkinguts for brains president and canceling her show.

I realize that she might have overstepped a line with her comment about Ivanka Trump. She got herself compared to Rosanne and her wee-hours, racist tweet. These two things are not the same. Rosanne's comment was just mean. Samantha's comment was at least accurate, if crudely stated.

If Ivanka really does have the president's ear, they why hasn't she done more to moderate some of his more hateful policies – such as removing children from parents when those parents cross the border, even with done totally legally.

Samantha called Ivanka feckless and then used a word that I have heard emphasized as C-U-Next-Thursday. The second word was inaccurate. Sam Bee's show is on Wednesdays, and if she had used a an acronym for C-U-Next-Wednesday, she would have been accurate on both counts. Samantha has apologized to her viewers, and that is a good thing, lest the news cycle focus totally on her, and not on the injustice that she seeks to change.

Thank you TBS for not giving into our feckless twit of a president.

Yeah, I used the T-word.
