Singer-songwriter Linda Ronstadt needled Secretary of State Mike Pompeo for “enabling Donald Trump” during a State Department dinner on Saturday for Ronstadt and other Kennedy Center Honorees, according to one person in attendance.
Sam Greisman, the son of Oscar-winning actress and fellow Kennedy Center Honors recipient Sally Field, tweeted about the exchange, which he said came after Pompeo “wondered aloud when he would be ‘loved.'”
According to Greisman, “Then Linda Ronstadt got up to get her laurels, looked the f—er right in the eye and said ‘maybe when you stop enabling Donald Trump.'”
Ronstadt’s manager did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
She is being praised, no “ok boomer” for her that I have read for Ronstadt who is arguably the ultimate boomer pop star, the reason punk was needed etc, etc.
