Rob Reiner, who played Meathead in All in the Family, opens his yap and proves, yet again, that he is a dumbass.
The last shots of the Civil War rang out in 1865, but director Rob Reiner believes the election of Donald Trump represents the final gasp in the war among the states.
"The way I look at it, if you are trying to take an overview - the holistic approach - we are fighting the last big major battle of the Civil War," Reiner said Monday evening at a D.C. screening of his new film, "LBJ."
"There's only been two times in the history of America where upon the election of a president, the people en masse took to the streets," Reiner said. "One was Abraham Lincoln, and the other was Donald Trump. And for obviously, you know, 180-degree different reasons, but both based on race."
Reiner's movie, starring Woody Harrelson as Lyndon Johnson, shows the 36th president's rise to the White House and his struggle to pass the Civil Rights Act, navigating the contentious politics of the 1960s in search of a compromise.
The director hopes the public will be able to learn something about the fight for civil rights from the film, which has no scheduled release date yet.
Okay, Meathead ... three quick observations:
1. The "people" are not taking to the streets, en masse. A few anarchists, paid by George Soros, are taking to the streets and making you leftists look truly ridiculous in the process.
2. In your movie about LBJ, did you include the moment when Lyndon, during a discussion about his Great Society Plan, said, "I'll have those niggers voting Democratic for the next 200 years!"?
3. The Civil Rights Act was passed because of the Republicans in Congress - in spite of the very large number of Democrats who were steadfastly opposed to it.
