A Virginia state delegate for the town where Sarah Huckabee Sanders was refused service Friday night criticized the restaurant owner with the ultimate Trump-country insult — she has ties to Hollywood.

Del. Ben Cline, a Republican who also is running for the U.S. House this November, dropped the “Meryl bomb” Saturday in a tweet apologizing to Mrs. Sanders, the chief White House spokeswoman.

“On behalf of my hometown of Lexington, I want to apologize for the rudeness of one liberal New York transplant (who also happens to be Meryl Streep’s cousin),” he wrote of restaurateur Stephanie Wilkinson, who since Friday night has doubled down and said she would kick Mrs. Sanders out again....

I saw a Post here yesterday that said the co-owner of the Red Hen is a Registered Sex Offender.

If true, why hasn’t that been a topic of the 24/7/365 News Cycle?

You could bet a Year’s Salary that if the situation was reversed, it would be broadcast from the Rooftops like a Muslim Prayer.

Meryl Streep? I loved her in Fatal Attraction.

[clyde260]

Do I know you? Are you a cousin?

“As the stomach turns”

Could be. I have over 40 first cousins.

Streep’s best was the young Amish woman in Witness with Harrison Ford.

[Spruce]

I liked her in the original King Kong
