Debra Messing and the curious case of misunderstood tweets

Before Debra Messing reignited the feud with Susan Sarandon, she tweeted to the wrong Sarah Sanders and had to apologize to Blake Shelton over a Twitter rant.
PUBLISHED SEP 13, 2018

Actress Debra Messing has a lot to say for sure, but she definitely doesn't seem to be getting it right. Maybe it was Variety's clickbait headline that got to her this time, but she's had a history of starting twitter wars without really going in the right direction. Recently, the 'Will & Grace' star decided to let actress Susan Sarandon know what she thought about her interview with Variety on Trump.

Responding to the interview, she said, "STFU SUSAN. Oh yes, PLEASE let’s give Trump CREDIT. I mean how else are you able to walk out on the street. Convince yourself that this CATASTROPHE of a President who you said was better that [Hillary Clinton] IS NOT ripping children away from parents seeking asylum." But here's the thing - Susan Sarandon meant something else altogether. Susan had said in the interview that "maybe things had to get bad" before they could get better. She had said, "This is a revolution. Maybe things had to get so bad before real change actually could happen. We just have to stay awake."
