Hard pass

Do they not understand that going after Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds in the court of public opinion is just an exceedingly bad idea?

It was also weird being in the room for it because you could feel the audience really… *wanting* to think Megyn’s speech was funny and super good but the reception, while kinda warm, was just… weirdly muted at time? Like they were a family member watching someone do mediocre at standup comedy.
