Ellen DeGeneres Refuses to Have President Trump on Her Show

Ellen DeGeneres famously had both Michelle and Barack Obama on her show, even going to a CVS store with the First Lady. But she told Megyn Kelly yesterday that President Trump was unwelcome on her program. Ellen said, “There is nothing I’m going to say to him that’s going to change him, and I don’t want to give him a platform because it validates him. And for me to have someone on the show, I have to at least admire them in some way, and I can’t have someone that I feel is not only dangerous for the country and for me personally as a gay woman, but to the world.” Does the sitting President of the United States really need validation from a daytime NBC television show? He probably feels pretty validated already…
