Why? Well probably because Grande realized that she made a big boo boo … and Trump is just a big boo boo. Also one of those two claims to be running for POTUS.

Is there a single iota of a chance that Ariana Grande’s like or dislike of America has national policy implications?

darrtown · July 13, 2015, 9:57pm

“Rep. Jeff Duncan (R-SC) said on Saturday he is concerned about the
double standards being applied to presidential candidate Donald Trump
and doughnut-licking, “I hate America” pop singer Ariana Grande.”

Well, Jeff, for starters Trump is running for President and Ariana isn’t plus I’ve never heard of Ariana.

HA! You can’t make this shit up! In his dumb brain, he truly thinks he’s made a great argument!

teenlaqueefa · July 13, 2015, 10:02pm

Jesus fuck man, maybe because she’s a minor pop star and a kid?

I’d never even heard of her until a few days ago.

antisachetdethe · July 13, 2015, 10:02pm

Perhaps because the “pop singer” isn’t running for President?

Jeebus on a Triscuit! Come up with an analogy that works!

One of these is not like the other…

Is Rep. Duncan (R-SC) under the impression that Ariana Grande is running for President? If so, he should check the Constitution to see what the minimum required age is to be elected President.

there is a lot of stupid in south carolina. and they elect them!

sniffit · July 13, 2015, 10:16pm

One of these things is not like the other…

It’s that cosmic used condom again that I mentioned earlier…they use it to tie things together that have nothing to do with one another.

In case you’re wondering, Duncan: the little trollop isn’t running for POTUS, will never be in a position of power and nobody gives a flying alpaca turd WTF is gong in and out and in and out and in and out and in and out of her mouth except for maybe the next guy in line at Dunkin Donuts…or maybe the dude she’s with in that video, but we’ll have to wait for another Fappening to find out. Get it? Got it? Good.

Let us know when Ariana Grande is running to be POTUS and shoots to the top of the GOP polls.

artemisia · July 13, 2015, 10:20pm

Oddly enough, I actually know who Ariana Grande is having seen commercials for her TV shows on Nickelodeon for ages. She’s not too bad a singer. She comes off as a real ditz. So, basically, she’s known to mostly the tween crowd and most adults know her if their kids care, and honestly, so many people cry “I hate America” no one cared. Plus, she apologized the next day. More people were upset that she licked a bunch of donuts during the same outburst and didn’t pay for any of them.

dogmama · July 13, 2015, 10:29pm

Dear Donald,

America has got one less problem withoutcha.

Love,
Arianna

docmoore · July 13, 2015, 10:33pm

So let’s weed all of the “stupid, young pop star” out her behavior. “I hate America (because we think being fat and eating gobs of donuts is okay)” is not an uncommon sentiment among healthcare providers. Certainly, the rest of the world looks at our rotund figures and diabetes rates and wonders what’s wrong with us…

candacetx · July 13, 2015, 10:33pm

Um, I’m just gonna guess…
because she is not running to be president and because of that her opinion will not/does not affect national policy? Just a guess…

typical GOP deflection.

pshah · July 13, 2015, 10:35pm

This misguided young pop singer said that she hated America and hated Americans, while she proceeded to contaminate food for resale with the very tongue with which she uttered the hatred rant

My, my, Congressman Duncan certainly seems to know quite a lot about this 22 year old minor pop star. Keep your hands where we can see them sir!

gajake · July 13, 2015, 10:40pm

I did not know that Ariana Grande (who???) is running for President. I assume she’s one of the thousands of Republicans doing so?

Lacuna-Synecdoche · July 13, 2015, 10:48pm

Why Is Trump Getting Slammed More Than ‘I Hate America’ Pop Singer?

• Ariana Grande apologized, Trump didn’t.
• Grande’s barely an adult, Trump’s an asshole.
• Grande’s a cute young woman, Trump’s an ugly old lech.
• Grande’s a pop singer, Trump’s a real estate mogul (and everyone with any sense hates real estate moguls).
• Grande has talent, Trump has inherited money.
• Grande isn’t running for political office and will have no effect on national policy, Trump is running for President of the United States.
