It is looking more and more like it is going to happen. The Trumpnado just can’t be stopped.
So now what do we do?
Well, if you are a B, C or D List Celebrity, you threaten to move out if the country if Trump is elected!
Whoopi Goldberg, Miley Cyrus, Cher, Jon Stewart and Raven Simone have all announced that they would pack up their, er, talents and head over the border.
Lets be real; would any of the aforementioned names be missed by ANY of us? We can just chalk it up to breaking a few eggs for the Trump omelette.
Yet there are a few names of note.
Al Sharpton: The Reverend of Race Baiting claims that he will be reserving his ticket to get out of here if Trump wins. In related news, over half of the nation simultaneously offered to buy the ticket!
Samuel L Jackson: Now someone needs to sweeten the deal here. Will we be able to get Sam a work visa? Come on, how will another Quentin Tarantino movie be made without Sam? Well, how would ANY movie be made? I swear that guy is in everything.
And finally, Jennifer Lawrence. Guys, we need to get on this. This nation can’t afford to lose J-Law. Seriously, this actually makes me want to — and I can’t believe I’m saying this — vote for Hillary or Ted! Yikes!
The bottom line is that we see this in almost every election. The hyperbolic threats from those that think they are so important that they can sway our vote simply by threatening self-deportation.
We simply need to treat these folks like I treat my puppy when he gets too fired up. Just ignore them, and they will go away.
Oh, expect Jennifer Lawrence. Seriously, we need to keep that one here. Ha!
