The Democrat leadership are soft pedaling it now, realizing that there is no there, there.

After 0bama’s disastrous shooting the party in the foot with the FISA wiretapping of Trump Towers while Trump was still a candidate (assuming, I’m sure, that Hillary would cover it all up once she won. But she didn’t win…oopsie!!), the Democrat party has far more to worry about than something that didn’t happen.

Her nominations are a creative block come on!

Snub her in August and you could have Adele Exarchopoulos or Brie Larson
Snub her in Florence and you could have Amy Adams, Sandra Huller or even Annette Bening

About the Fiction Short Films I’d agree that whatever the fuck they’re doing there is wrong, but I strongly disagree that more north american produced short films would make it any better (remember how meh is Curfew?).

Anyways, I don’t know exactly how, but these two categories need some rethinking imediatly.
