Dolly Parton
Dolly Parton has clarified her comments about this year’s presidential candidates after numerous media outlets said that Parton had endorsed Hillary Clinton.
In a story published on June 24 on the New York Times website, the following exchange was published:
How do you feel about a female presidential nominee?
Well, I think that that would be wonderful. Hillary might make as good a president as anybody ever has. I think no matter if it’s Hillary or Donald Trump, we’re gonna be plagued with PMS either way — presidential mood swings! But I personally think a woman would do a great job. I think Hillary’s very qualified. So if she gets it, I’ll certainly be behind her.
In her statement released on Tuesday (July 5), Parton said:
“This morning while I was watching the news I saw many reports that I had endorsed Hillary Clinton. My comment about supporting a woman in the White House was taken out of context. I have not endorsed Hillary Clinton nor Donald Trump. I try not to get political but if I am, I might as well just run myself ’cause I’ve got the hair for it, it’s huge, and they could always use more boobs in the race. But seriously, I have not decided who I’m voting for, but no matter what we’re gonna be suffering from PMS, Presidential Mood Swings.” — Dolly Parton
