By now, I think most social media goers know of Tomi Lahren. She's a no-holds-back conservative from South Dakota with her own show on The Blaze. She's blown up over the past few months coinciding with the crazy election coverage and election of Donald Trump. She claims to be the voice for the looked over states of the Mid-West as well as a prominent voice in young Conservatives when the country seems to be flowing with young liberals.
While I fully entitle Tomi to whatever opinion she may hold politically, I came across a video of her speaking on feminism due to an attack on her merch item of rhinestone panties. In this response, Tomi says women should stop tearing each other down if the true intention of feminism is to be restored. That's fine and dandy except not but five days later did Tomi "tear down" Meryl Streep for her comments at the Golden Globes.
In this speech, Streep condemns the President Elect for impersonating a disabled reporter during his election campaign trail as this allows those looking up to him to do the same without feeling any remorse for their actions. While the President Elect fully denies this statement, the video is evidence enough. Streep also calls upon the reporters to do their jobs and basically not let Trump scare them into silence. The Golden Globe Cecille DeMille Award Winner also stated that "Disrespect invites disrespect. Violence incites violence. When the powerful use their position to bully others, we all lose."
Now, I don't see anything too malicious in Streep's speech and even though it was aimed at Donald Trump, she makes no deliberately vicious attacks on him like he has done to plenty other women who have criticized him.
Tomi released a multitude of tweets about the Golden Globes and the "liberal elite" following Streep's comments. She then produced a video not soon after calling Meryl and the rest of Hollywood "a room of overrated liberals gathered in a room to honor themselves." She goes on to claim Meryl "stayed on her high horse" by promoting the arts as a core part of our country and falsely stated that Meryl believes football watchers are deplorables. Lahren then goes on to call Trump's opponent in the race Hilary Clinton the "most dishonest, lying, sack of crap in the electoral history." How's that whole "let's not tear other women down" thing going for you, Tomi?
Honestly, I see Tomi Lahren as someone who needs a nice chamomile tea instead of spending her time in twitter fights, insulting women (but if it's her, that's not okay) and constantly going after Hillary Clinton. Lahren, Hillary lost. It's okay. Give it up now.
There's so much more I could say on Lahren, but these are my final thoughts.
