Nicole Kidman Clarifies Trump Support Comments After Predictably Catching Grief

So a few days ago, actress Nicole Kidman made the following remarks during an interview with the British Broadcasting Corporation:


���He [Donald Trump] is now elected and we, as a country, need to support whoever is the president, because that's what the country is based on.���


���However that happened, he's there and let's go.���

To many, that seemed a simple, straightforward, common sense appraisal of where the nation is at right now in terms of the transition of power from Barack Obama to Donald Trump.


Not to everyone, however.


As has become fashionable, any statements that can be even vaguely construed as pro-Trump, even if they are merely pro-the process of American government, made by anyone with even the most modest celebrity status, will cause that celebrity to be vilified by the fascist progressives, and such was the case with Kidman���s remarks.


As reported by a variety of news outlets, including Fox News, Kidman gave a subsequent interview to Access Hollywood in which she said that her original comments were not meant to be an expression of support for Trump, but, rather, support for the American democratic system of government.


���I was trying to stress that I believe in democracy and the American Constitution, and it was that simple,��� she said.


Although an interviewer kept at her for more details, Kidman decided she���d had enough.


���I'm out of it now. That's what I said and it's that simple,��� she said.


Although Kidman is known to many as Australian, she was actually born in Hawaii to Australian parents. She holds dual citizenship in Australia and the U.S.
