A nervous nation breathes easy: Even with Trump as president, Miley Cyrus won't leave us after all

I know I'm relieved. Wait. Who is she again? All right, as much as I want to pretend I have no idea, the truth is my son was in the Disney Channel years right around the time Hannah Montana was a big hit among the pre-adolescent set. It was never the same after Jackson admitted he was starting to think about Lily that way.
Also: Did she actually threaten to leave the country if Trump won? This stuff is hard to keep up with. Did Rosie O'Donnell make a similar threat, or did it just seem obvious that she must be thinking it after that first debate? Didn't Madonna threaten to move? Oh. Right. I remember what Madonna said she'd do. Realize that if Miley made her way to France or wherever, you'd still be able to hear formulaic pop with her awful voice, and you'd still be able to read interviews containing her foul manner of expression and her feral disdain for all things good. If you have a need for these things. But it looks like we've all been spared gut-wrenching experience of seeing her off:
Miley Cyrus is taking back her vow to leave the United States if Donald Trump became president. She’s still happily residing in the country after the election and says now she has zero plans to leave. “I’m not f--king leaving the country, that’s some ignorant s—t, that’s dumb,” the singer told NME Friday. “Because that’s me abandoning my country when I think I’ve got a good thing to say to my country. And trust me, I hear every day on my Instagram, ‘Just leave already! When are you going to leave?’ Well, that’s not going to do me any good. Does it really matter where I am? Because wherever I am, my f--king voice is gonna be heard, and I’ll make sure of it.”
The 24-year-old, who has a new album out titled “Younger Now,” admitted to the publication she was a vocal supporter of Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton. One of the songs, named “Inspired,” was written for Clinton. “… I’m not fighting fire with fire, hate with hate,” explained Cyrus. “I’m fighting hate with love. I’m doing this concert this week in Vegas and for ‘Party In The USA’ the screens will say ‘education’ and ‘healthcare’ and ‘equality,’ ‘justice,’ ‘freedom,’ ‘liberation,’ ‘expression.’ These things are what make up our country. It’s not a party in the USA if it’s filled with hate, discrimination, walls, violence, all these things.”
That's some deep s*** right there, homes. Like, make that a meme and signal your virtue everywhere. Brain-teaser: Are we a great country because we tolerate the likes of Miley Cyrus, and indulge her attempts to make important utterings without locking her up in a place where no one will ever have to hear her voice again? Or . . . is the opposite true? Talk amongst yourselves. If you're wondering why this matters, I'm not asserting that it does. But whether you want to admit it or not, culture is upstream of politics, and an awful lot of the culture is influenced by people who are famous simply by virtue of having successfully called a lot of attention to themselves. Miley Cyrus is one such person, and it's probably worth noticing that she's a flipping moron. By the way, the national debt just topped $20 trillion. What, oh what, will Miley do next?
