Samuel L. Jackson endorses Rep. Rashida Tlaib's use of "motherfucker" when referring to Trump

[shinobi602]

Appropriate.

Newly elected Democratic Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib received a good deal of criticism after referring to President Trump as "the motherf*****" and calling for his impeachment Thursday, hours after she was sworn in. But among her most notable backers is actor Samuel L. Jackson, who's made that expletive something of a trademark in his movies.

Tlaib, who now represents Michigan's 13th congressional district and is among the first Muslim women to serve in Congress, delivered her controversial remarks at a reception hosted by liberal group MoveOn.org. In a now-viral video, she told supporters, "We're going to go in there, we're going to impeach the motherf*****!"

Jackson, notorious for yelling out the word in "Snakes on a Plane" and other films, endorsed Tliab's message in a tweet Sunday.
"I just wanna Wholeheartedly endorse your use of & clarity of purpose when declaring your (expletive) goal last week," Jackson wrote. "Calling that (expletive) a (expletive) is not an issue, calling that (expletive) President Is!!!"

Jackson is closely associated with the M-word. According to a popular YouTube video, Jackson has said "motherf*****" 171 times across 29 movies.
Tlaib also got some backup from her new colleague, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, who tweeted "I got your back" while pointing out hypocrisy of those who criticized Tlaib yet excused Mr. Trump's own words and behavior.

Seriously. Constantly comparing her comments with years of Trump's warthog tweets and locker talk as if they are contextually the same. Fuck all those CNN commentators who went there.

1. Yes.

2. Bloodborne is a Top-5 MUTHERFUCKING PS4 EXCLUSIVE!!!

3. Sometimes you need to make obvious statements to emphasize a point to the dull and misled people of the world.

I know he's famous for saying "motherfucker". For me, I just see it as preaching to the choir. Based on what he's previously said about Trump, no one could be surprised he felt this way. And those who follow him on Twitter (and are fans of Trump, I guess) can't be surprised at this either. For me, it's a bit blasé at this point to say stuff like this.

it's all they have. they know nobody likes their actual politics so they just tone police to try and keep some measure of control.
