NEW YORK (AP) — Patti Smith’s long, slender fingers trembled just thinking about being a writer during the presidency of Donald Trump.
“I don’t know how people are even able to contain themselves and contain their rage,” Smith said, “I always felt, even if I didn’t agree with whomever was our president, I felt that I could still walk tall wherever I want. I still was myself. But there’s something about this current administration where I feel tainted as a human being.”
On Monday night at the Whitney Museum in Manhattan, Smith and Salman Rushdie commiserated about Trump and otherwise compared notes on everything from the writing process to their favorite painters. They were guests at the annual “Chairman’s Evening” hosted by the MacDowell artist colony and were interviewed by Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist and MacDowell chairman Michael Chabon. MacDowell has a long history of bringing artists together and previous Chairman’s Evening pairings have included Martin Scorsese with Lin-Manuel Miranda and Stephen Sondheim with Paul Simon.
Lady,(I use the term loosely) I’ve been familiar with you since the mid 70’s. You’ve always been tainted. Nasty skank!
That is hilarious!
Every day that Donald Trump is POTUS and stupid celebrities feel icky about it is a GLORIOUS day!
MAGA, bitches!
She damn well looks tainted.
I bet she smells as bad as she looks.
Breaking snooze. Snowflakes are horrified.
Good to see 65 year old former rock stars embrace the transgender lifestyle.
Begone! Before someone drops a house on you!
So what did Donald Trump do to Patti? How has her life changed as a result of the Trump Presidency? Has Trump impacted her ability to continue with her work? Did Trump prevent her from performing? Has Trump imprisoned any her family or friends? Has Trump taken away any of Patti’s rights?
Smith and Rushdie are modern day liberals, who have no truck with any type of liberty. They want to butt into people’s lives and force their political world views on people who don’t agree with them. If any American exercises any freedom, people like Smith and Rushdie want to stamp it out. If people love America or think the United States is the greatest nation in the world, they want to silence these folks.
So, Patti Smith, stay the fuck out of my life with your ignorant and stupid politics. Your joy stops at my rights and liberties.
Dude, that’s a DUDE!

Patti Smith has always been the definition of a ‘Freak’
Great comments, Wyatt,
Deep down, she’s just a delicate little flower…. https://www.bing.com/search?q=lyrics+for+rock+and+roll+nigger&form=APMCS1&PC=APMC it sounds just as friendly as it reads…..
Jethro, I thought it was Neil Young, circa 1969.
If Shemp had a grandson..
That’s a woman? Sweet fancy Moses. My Lupus meds made my hair fall out, and I still look a thousand times more feminine than she does.
Shit….I thought that was Harry Dean Stanton. My bad.
Taint is the little space between the sphincter and VaJayJay
Taint pussy taint a**
What’s HIS problem?
A guy that masculine should be ashamed to have a name like “Patti”.
de Lauro’s daddy?
The best schadenfreude moment with her is that cussing Trump is the only thing that’s making her relevant now. So she should be thanking Trump.
Vietvet – How about Paddy? Is she Irish?
Now there is a taint, Never saw one before.
I just looked up Harry Dean Stanton. LOL

Histrionic much?
Yeah, it’s Trump who makes “her” feel that way; not the 500 gallons of H she shot up in her lifetime or the 1,000 guys she blew.
If she lifted her hat would the hair come with it?
These libs freaking out about the country/world being ruined with Trump had no clue or care what the righties felt over 8 long ugly years of Obama.
@MJA: Probably not, but if she changed her name to Paddy O’Furniture, at least it would account for that weatherbeaten look.
She gives U.S. Rep. Rosa DeLauro, D-Connecticut a run for her money in the ugly mug leftist department.

Never heard of her.
Looks like a him.
She belongs in a Star Trek movie.
First off you spelled Obama wrong.
It should say: ‘Obama Makes Me Feel Tainted as a Human Being
So when you read Trump; in your mind correct it to Obama
There, there, dear, drink the nice hemlock. It will go down smooth, ease your fevered mind, and put you out of our misery. President Trump will be the last thing on your mind (literally) as you drift off into eternal sleep.
There should be some kind of city ordinance that when ever he/she/it goes outside, it has to wear a 50 pound flour sack over the area above the shoulders with her site eyeholes cut in it!
To paraphrase the late, great Otto & George, when she finally does take a shower the whole house smells like Sizzlean and hot garbage.
Never heard of him.This is a guy right? Please tell me this not not a woman.
Glad I don’t know what it is.
I thought He hung himself Masturbating ?
I bet it smells like my taint
Why doesn’t xe defect to Cuba?
“And I can’t let this guy (Trump), and what they’re doing, keep me from my inalienable right to do my work, to have some kind of joy in life,” she said.
Why does a ‘reporter’ let her get away with such an ignorant “profound statement’, explain just exactly what rights has he denied you?
I hope she blew the reporter cause she sure owes him.
Junkie bitch, you’ve been tainted since the 70s. STFU and GTFO.
