It's a shame only one of these people lost representation over this.

[sweetwaterlane]

which one lost representation?

[lovelylaura23]

Susan.

Susan is such a good egg.

Julianna.... idk her other than this, but she seems dumb as a box of rocks.

[sarahvma]

Susan has repeatedly said dangerously stupid things over the years.

[tetrazzinichikn]

Do you agree with Susan’s original statement?

[aristobrit]

Susan Sarandon said Trump was less dangerous for America than Hillary Clinton.

That alone shows what a fucking imbecile she is and always has been. She keeps showing her ass and her apology is just desperation to keep her career from ending.

Good morning to Archie Panjabi, and only to Archie Panjabi.

both of their original comments were terrible. It's not my apology to accept and it's not a contest, but like OP said Susan is at least acknowledging how/why she fucked up. Julianna's is just a bunch of words.

Julianna's statement is bs. She says racism is abhorrent, yet didn't apologize for specific racist things she said on the podcast. And she still doesn't acknowledge the humanity of Palestinians (or Muslims in general for that matter) and focuses on hamas.

It's disgusting that people like her, Debra Messing or Amy Schumer say or share the most islamophobic things and can go on with their day.

Debra Messing actually shared a clip of Wilders who is a far right European politician.

Julianna was SO fucking racist. Besides the BLM black square bullshit, her whole "Queer people should be pro Israel" completely ignored the existence of queer Palestinians who *are* actively being killed by Israel rn. Not to mention the shitty implications (that Amy Schumer also made) that Black Jews don't exist, ig.

I'm sure I'm missing something else. She said so much bullshit in so few sentences

[pi_lady]

She also said that queer people would get beheaded the moment they entered an Islamic country and that people would be playing football with their heads. Absolutely vile and unhinged.

Julianna has evil energy, I see her and I just know she's rude to everyone she deems below her.
Like I said, ugly demon.

[lolitalockheart]

This is very old, but a friend of mine lived in her building during the Good Wife and said she was horrible so you're not wrong.

[babyyoda]

For real she gives off a terrible vibe
