          there's an  Australian  TV station, and their regular feature is   
   making fun of  USA's  VP.  (her Giggles, stupid remarks)   
      
         i guess... this series had toned down a bit in the last few months?   
      
      
      
             >>>  A few days ago a touring music group cancelled its   
   Newcastle concert at short notice. Not long afterward the remainder of   
   its entire Australian tour was cancelled.   
      
            It happened because one of the band members had his birthday   
   party on stage in Sydney. When the birthday cake arrived, he was invited   
   to make a wish.     He said "I hope they don't miss next time".   
      
            Apparently the backlash was extreme. There are more Trump   
   admirers in this country than I would have guessed.<<<   
      
      
      
   i see...   it's like    the   Dixie-Chicks'  incident  from 20 years ago.   
      
      
      
                    In March 2003, the Dixie Chicks, a hugely popular   
   country music group, found themselves in the midst of a massive   
   controversy.         While performing in London, lead singer Natalie   
   Maines expressed her disapproval of the impending Iraq War and President   
   George W. Bush, stating, "We're ashamed that the President of the United   
   States is from Texas."
