Madonna

Of course, Madonna, like everyone else has a right to their opinion. However just having a right to your opinion doesn't mean you shouldn't be critiqued about what you say.

Yes, the comments Trump made about women are offensive, vulgar and stupid. Personally if I was a woman I probably wouldn't have voted for him just because of that. Women apparently disagree with me because many did vote for him, and they are just as powerful and independent as those who marched this past weekend.  The marches were peaceful, legal, and inspiring to me. What Madonna said was both illegal and asinine.

No, you can't threaten to bomb the president or the White House in the name of free speech. That's a threat of physical violence against people and you should be arrested for it. Will Madonna be arrested for it? Of course not. Her supporters would be aghast (rightfully so) when some Tea Party dumbass threatened the White House or Obama in 2008-2016 but now that there is a mean, nasty republican in there-nothing to see folks, move along. No matter who is in office, these comments are totally crossing the line.

Another thing-you lose the right to complain about anyone objectifying women when you've done the things Madonna has throughout her career. She has absolutely no credibility on that issue.
