This week’s episode of our presidential circus featured children heartlessly being ripped away from their migrant families at the border.
These children are currently being housed in a “migrant child detention center” located near the border in Texas.
Cue Melania Trump’s going to visit the devastated children in the centers, wearing this:
So many questions come to mind, but the most important one is how can anyone be that blatantly inconsiderate and dense?
This got blogger Elyse Nichelle thinking of others who’ve made colossal mistakes with their words or actions this week.
Clickthrough for her countdown of seven more people who completely missed the mark.
Kendall Jenner
Pepsi is known for their iconic commercials featuring pop culture’s favorites. Never forget the tone-deaf commercial released by their company featuring Kendall Jenner attempting to end police brutality with white privilege, a smile and of course a Pepsi. Who knew world peace came in a little blue can?
Kanye West
There are many incidents of Kanye having his foot in his mouth. Especially considering most recent misconstrued comments about slavery being a choice. The beauty of Kanye is, Kanye usually means well and even if he doesn’t, he’s unapologetically Kanye.
Charlie Sheen
Once upon a time, actor Charlie Sheen was the highest paid television actor in the world. Then his addiction took a turn for the worst and his career went up in flames. Upon doing interviews to clear up his actions, he decided to drive the final nail into the coffin of his career by explaining his “tiger blood” is why he stays “winning”… despite his status of being unemployed.
Caitlyn Jenner
After transitioning from Bruce to Caitlyn in a very public way and detailing the “struggle” of womanhood in her own reality show, “I am Caitlyn”…. Caitlyn makes this list for saying “The hardest part about being a woman is deciding what to wear.”
Nicki Minaj
She’s been quoted as saying things like “I’m going to do splits on the D” and “I let him hit it, because he slang cocaine” in her most popular songs. Between her enhanced body parts and constant (failed) attempts at twerking, it appears she thinks she’s an Instagram model. However, in her most recent interview for Elle magazine, she shamed IG models, strippers, and sex workers. All the while, encouraging “these young ladies” to know their worth. Is it the pot or the kettle that’s black?
R. Kelly
Yes, the above gif is an actual quote from singer Robert Kelly. The answer was in response to the question, “Is it true you like teenaged girls?”. Nothing further needs to be said, except if you’re still a fan of his…. you may belong on this list too.
Donald Trump
Shout out to the goof behind, Melania who takes the last (and least) spot on our list. and unfortunately will have it secured for the next three years.
Congrats, Melania, you’re in qwhite the company.
