merrieeee Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 Ok lets get to the important stuff! He looked gorgeous. It was the most contentious appearance I have ever seen. There was a pastor on that said in essence that Bernie needs to come to Jesus. What arrogance! Clay's facial expressions were priceless. He wanted to jump in so badly. He did get one point in but the pastor would not shut up about Jesus. Info in the members section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninna721 Posted March 15, 2016 Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 My internet is out pretty much for the week, so have to take advantage of free wifi when I can Got to see Clay on CNN. He did look fantastic! You could just tell when he'd had enough of the minister and would jump in. Hope to catch one or two tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldyjocelyn Posted March 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 I'm hearing that there's LOTS of appearances today. He's already been on Fox and Friends (Fox News channel), and there's supposedly more today. That's what happens when the NC primary is today. This really has been the perfect storm for Clay. He has political experience now -- check. He has media savvy, learned through AI -- check. He's worked with Donald Trump -- check. He knows how to both write and speak coherently -- check. He has to be loving this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ldyjocelyn Posted March 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 ew.com Clay Aiken calls out Trump supporters who claim to own his albums: 'You're not fooling anyone' Quote Clay Aiken calls out Trump supporters who claim to own his albums: 'You're not fooling anyone' BY DANA ROSE FALCONE • @DANAROSEFALCONE (Alberto E. Rodriguez/Getty Images for The Hollywood Christmas Parade) Posted March 15 2016 — 4:05 PM EDT American Idol runner-up Clay Aiken knows exactly which demographics make up his fan base, and he has no shame in calling out pretend Claymates. Following numerous TV appearances to discuss his left-leaning politics, Aiken tweeted Tuesday at Donald Trump supporters who’ve claimed to denounce the “Invisible” singer due to his Democratic loyalties. “Laughing at #Trump folks who r ‘throwing out’ my albums bc I dont support him,” Aiken wrote. “If ur a str8 dude over 30, ur not fooling any1. U never had 1.” But there is one Trump supporter who likely considers herself a fan of the 2003 Idol runner-up: Aiken’s mom. “My mother votes Republican typically, [but] she’s not necessarily thrilled with Donald Trump as a candidate because he fired me onApprentice,” Aiken told CNN Monday. “She watched the debates, the most recent debate, and decided, and a number of people in North Carolina who I’ve spoken to have decided to vote for Trump because the establishment is attacking him, and they’re tired of typical politicians.” In a Huffington Post article, Aiken wrote he’s “ready for Hilary Clinton” but wishes she’d “learn from the Bern” when it comes to embracing progressive ideals. “That’s one of the many reasons I’ll cast my vote in the North Carolina primary for Bernie Sanders,” he states. Aiken had a short-lived political career of his own since appearing onAmerican Idol, with a 2014 run for Congress in his home state of North Carolina. Though he came in second to Republican representative Renee Ellmers, Aiken continues to advocate for equality and voice his political opinions, joining CNN for Super Tuesday coverage earlier in the month.
