Shania Twain apologizes after saying she would have voted for Donald Trump

Country singer Shania Twain has apologized after saying in an interview that she would have voted for Donald Trump for president if she could.

Twain, who is Canadian, told The Guardian in an article published Sunday: “I would have voted for him because, even though he was offensive, he seemed honest.”

Twain added that she would have supported Trump because of his straightforward style, and said she thought he would be transparent.

“Do you want straight or polite? Not that you shouldn’t be able to have both,” she said in the article. “If I were voting, I just don’t want [expletive]. I would have voted for a feeling that it was transparent. And politics has a reputation of not being that, right?”

Well that admission and moment of honesty was a career-killah.  This is the era of keeping your mouth shut unless you hate Donald Trump.  Somebody should have told her....?    :shrug:

One of the Left’s mind slaves escaped the plantation, huh? Well, no damage done. The thought police quickly corralled her and got her thinking straight. Won’t happen again.

She is a great entertainer, with a compelling life story. She is not a political type, though.

She made an honest offhand remark, but the left came down hard on her, and she retreated....since fighting politics takes a backseat to restarting her career.

The left force this "one think," on people with shame, coercion, etc.

She's Canadian and I don't think she could vote in a US election.

I don't see what all the fuss is about..../s

Back in the day when she was so popular everyone always said how beautiful she was, but I don't know what the big deal was.
