Americans are tired of the Clinton family. But they just won’t give up.
And now everyone’s laughing at Hillary Clinton for this moronic statement.
Former First Lady Hillary Clinton reacted to the news that actress Margot Robbie and Barbie filmmaker Greta Gerwig had been overlooked by the Oscars for their box-office blockbuster film.
“Greta and Margot, while it can sting to win the box office but not take home the gold, your millions of fans love you. You’re so much more than Kenough,” Clinton said in a post on X to her 6 million followers, adding the hashtag #HillaryBarbie.

While it can sting to win the box office but not take home the gold, your millions of fans love you.
You’re both so much more than Kenough.#HillaryBarbie

Many Barbie fans were surprised to learn on Tuesday that the beloved film had been excluded from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences’ categories for best director and best actress.
However, Ryan Gosling was nominated for best supporting actor, while co-star America Ferrera was nominated for best supporting actress.
Gosling expressed dissatisfaction with his co-stars’ snubs.
“I am extremely honored to be nominated by my colleagues alongside such remarkable artists in a year of so many great films,” he said in a statement.
“And I never thought I’d be saying this, but I’m also incredibly honored and proud that it’s for portraying a plastic doll named Ken.”
The Barbie co-star continued, “But there is no Ken without Barbie, and there is no Barbie movie without Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie, the two people most responsible for this history-making, globally celebrated film. No recognition would be possible for anyone on the film without their talent, grit and genius. To say that I’m disappointed that they are not nominated in their respective categories would be an understatement.”
Social media users reacted to the former 2016 Democratic presidential candidate’s message.
“Sorry Hillary, the popular vote doesn’t win Oscars either,” one person said.
“Margot really should’ve visited Wisconsin,” another individual wrote in response to her post.
“This is so cringe,” another person responded.
“I dunno if feminism needs the approval of someone whose Ken was on Epstein’s speed dial,” one woman said in response to the social media message.
“It’s literally been 8 years, and she’s still a sore loser,” one social media user commented on her post.
