‘You F*cking Moron’: Billy Eichner Slams Meghan McCain on Twitter Over Meryl Streep’s Speech
Lots of people had lot of feelings about Meryl Streep‘s Golden Globes speech last night. While many praised it, there were some detractors. Not surprisingly, lots of Hollywood couldn’t get enough, but people like Donald Trump and Tomi Lahren weren’t into it. Neither was Meghan McCain. Though she wasn’t a fan of Trump’s during the election, she also did not like the speech, and said that it showed “why [he] won.” She also said that if Hollywood doesn’t change, they “will help him get re-elected.”
This Meryl Streep speech is why Trump won. And if people in Hollywood don’t start recognizing why and how – you will help him get re-elected

Love being told I live in a bubble by the daughter of a millionaire politician who sometimes guest co-hosts Hoda and Kathie Lee.

And I have no desire to “bridge the cultural divide” with ignorant voters who don’t respect other cultures!

This morning, he kept going.
It doesn’t matter what Trump thinks of Meryl. What matters is he’s ignoring American intelligence agencies, which is a threat to our…
