Looking forward to this, in spite of the inspiration. 😉

I don’t get all the vitriol towards Hillary Clinton. It’s not that I think she’s the bees knees. I don’t. But she just strikes me as a typical run of the mill politician – economical with the truth and willing to compromise on her principles when it is in her political interests to do so. Essentially the only type of politician that can get elected that isn’t a faces-stirrer.

You should learn about Hillary Clinton then. The “vitriol” — which is much kinder than what she deserves — is well earned: – Clinton has been the “beard” for Bill Clinton’s rampant rape and sexual abuse of women since the two met. She’s called his victims bimbos and physically threatened them to their faces to protect her arranged marriage to rapist Bill, lest her political power be jeopardized. She’s just tired of Bill getting caught. – Hillary Clinton stole the democratic nomination from Bernie Sanders. The globalists want communism, but they want it with THEIR communist, and Bernie was not… Read more »

It will be interesting to see Lynda Carter’s role on Supergirl. I really can’t wait for season 2.

Well, at least she’s not taking inspiration from someone who’s acts like a clone of Lex Luthor whose DNA got accidentally spliced with Otis and Boss Hogg.

Sadly there isn’t a whole lot of examples upon which for her to draw but I can see why those qualities she mentioned would be the ones that stood out to her for creating her characterization. I have no doubt she’ll pull this role off very well.

Luthor was the second or third richest man in the world, and a corrupt multi nationalist corporatist. Trump is neither. Trump is like Bruce Wayne mixed with Tony Stark. But Carter says she wants to “emulate” Clinton? Of cour$e $he doe$! No surprise: we all knew from the moment they announced a female president that it’d be based off Hitlery Clinton. This should not be any surprise since Time Warner — a funder of Clinton’s campaign — has been presenting female presidents in many of their features for the last year or so to psychologically condition its audience to accept… Read more »

This should not be any surprise since Time Warner — a funder of Clinton’s campaign — has been presenting female presidents in many of their features for the last year or so to psychologically condition its audience to accept Hitlery Clinton. Remember that in Justice League: Gods & Monsters, Amanda Waller was the president, and she’s simply a less evil and more competent version of Clinton. Of course Carter will be loyal to her masters and… Read more »

Wow you are really misinformed. I really feel for you if you believe any of the crap you posted.
On topic she couldn’t have picked a better role model. I can’t wait.

Everything he said was true. It does not matter what party you are in, facts are hard to ignore. It appears hard to believe that those who believe in Superman’s values of truth and justice woul believe in such a scoundrel as Clinton.

I wish they would keep liberal politics away from Superman and Supergirl. Did anyone notice that in BvS there were real life commentators from every cable network, and even PBS, but no one from FOX? Don’t these guys realize that nearly half of the viewers are conservative! Since Carter is emulating Clinton, does that mean her portrayal will be of a lying and corrupt politician? Add the rumored episode of all singing, and this show looks to be possibly jumping the shark! I love this show, but what is going on here? Any kind of politics biased one way or… Read more »

Guys..I know this is a “political” themed post, but can we keep the blatant partisan bickering, talking point posts, and general trashing of the candidates out of the discussion as much as possible? I really don’t want this to turn into a Fact Checking news section. Thank you.
