“I could cry… I don’t know why he’s doing this,” an emotional LuPone said in response to a question from co-host Ana Navarro about Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and the LGBT community. “I don’t know, I mean I’ve said this before and I’m going to get in trouble. I’ve said this before, and it’s been in print. I don’t know what the difference between our Christian Right and the Taliban is. I have no idea what the difference is. What’s happening in this country right now in the name of religion is so dangerous.

It’s not this country. It’s not America When I was growing up, I didn’t know America was an experiment. They never said America was an experiment when we were growing up. It was a democracy. And now it’s in such danger. It’s so upsetting. It’s upsetting to hear the loudest voices and not any kind of pushback to the loudest voices that are the extremity in this country.

Patti lupone – The view

Actress, phenom, and LGBT ally Patti LuPone declared that she doesn’t know the difference between “our Christian Right and the Taliban” during an appearance on “The View” on Tuesday. 

Patti being Patti, she had some choice words former president Donald Trump and Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, during the segment as well when asked rabout her eaction to the recent criminal charges filed against Trump.

It’s not enough. It’s just not enough. I want Fani Willis, and I want Jack Smith, I want anybody else indicting him to indict him now so I can get over my PTSD,” she said as the show’s audio cut out, apparently as she used obscenities that ran afoul of network TV’s language rule.

Jim Jordan, go home to your own district. I just want to say, New York’s murder rate in 2022 was 5.2% per 100,000 people, nearly three times lower than Columbus, Ohio. So go home, Jim Jordan. Stop picking a fight. Do the job you were hired for. Get out of New York!”
