Does the White House not have more important things to do?

There are a lot of scary things happening in the world and the White House is more concerned with…Sydney Sweeney? I’ve already said what I wanted to about this situation but now the White House is continually bringing her up and…don’t you have other stuff to do?

In the midst of President Donald Trump saying that he was going to put a nuclear reactor on the moon (a real thing), the White House has hard pivoted to a Sydney Sweeney stan account. Personally, her silence in the midst of the Trump administration constantly pushing Sweeney on us doesn’t sit well with me and that’s all I’ll say on that front.

But it is embarrassing that this is what the White House has been turned into. They’re posting memes on the official account as if people don’t follow the WHITE HOUSE for important information.

They have used Sweeney’s American Eagle ad as a new meme template which, when you read the criticisms about the ad itself, really makes the entire situation just messed up beyond belief. While sure, everyone is too online anymore, the fact that the White House thinks that posting memes when there are about 400 dumpster fires that need put out is…..unnerving.

I don’t really think that the White House needs to be this involved in internet drama. Maybe they should be worried about the world at large? Even so, the last thing any celebrity should want is the Trump administration on their side by I digress.

At the end of the day, we are living in a timeline that makes absolutely no sense. If you explained this to me 15 years ago, I’d truly think that this was a Saturday Night Live sketch but this is probably going to be the tamest thing of the day that Trump does and that’s what makes this all…an absolute disaster.

As I’ve said before, Sweeney is now going to be associated with this administration because of what they’re doing to her and her silence is just allowing it to continue so until she speaks up, Trump is going to continue to make jokes about her and use her for his own clout because that’s just the world we’re living in now. Hope she enjoys that!
