Lauren Sanchez and Jeff Bezos’ wedding exists in a weird space. On the one hand, you have left-leaning guests like Oprah Winfrey, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Katy Perry, who couldn’t make it. On the other, freaking Donald Trump was invited, but also couldn’t make it, on top of it being a garish days-long event that showcased a billionaire’s obscene wealth.
Considering Republicans worship at the altar of free market capitalism, you’d just assume Meghan McCain would love this American “success” story. But you’d be forgetting that Meghan never makes a lick of sense, so I’m here to inform you that she hated the whole thing. In fact, she’s mad that Jeff Bezos… doesn’t pay enough in taxes? There’s a tried and true conservative talking point right there: More taxes for the rich! They’re always saying that.
Via Page Six:
McCain went on to blast the “egregious … display of gratuitous wealth” event — especially as there is “a lot of anger about [billionaires] not paying their fair share of taxes [and] not giving back the way they should.”
With “socialism on the rise,” the former “Outnumbered” host called Bezos and Sánchez’s Venice, Italy, wedding a “weird” choice.
“[Bezos said], ‘Screw it, Im gonna have the most ridiculous, gaudy, over-the-top, celebrity-filled wedding in a city that I have no relationship to … and we’re gonna screw up this city for a period of time and then show the entire world how much money we have and how much money you don’t,’” McCain claimed.
Before everyone gives Meghan props for busting out the guillotine, it took nary a second until she twisted herself in knots by saying she’s “not mad at rich people.” Apparently, there’s enough self-awareness in that bleached gourd of hers that remembers, “Oh, right, I come from some of the oldest money in America.” Although Meghan’s wealth comes from her mom’s side, so it’s a miracle she even acknowledges that. For most of her life, Meghan acted like she shot out of John McCain fully-formed.
Anyway, what is Meghan really mad about regarding the Sanchez-Bezos nuptials? If I had to take a Jell-O shot in the dark, I’m assuming the guest list. Meghan was notably not invited, but the couple below definitely were. Never change, my predictable muse. (I don’t care if my lawyer said to stop putting that in writing. I’m an artist!)
