After photos were released of Finland’s leftist Prime Minister Sanna Marin dancing provocatively at a party at the official head of state residence, waning politician, Hillary Clinton posted photos of herself drunkenly partying at a Cartagena, Colombia bar ten years ago to stand in solidarity with Marin.
The Daily Wire reports:
Marin has been harshly criticized for videos showing her dancing in an intimate manner with a man not her husband, as well as for videos taken of bare-breasted women kissing at her official residence.
“As Ann Richards said, ‘Ginger Rogers did everything that Fred Astaire did. She just did it backwards and in high heels,’” Clinton rhapsodized in her ardent feminist tone, citing the former Democratic governor of Texas. “Here’s me in Cartagena while I was there for a meeting as Secretary of State. Keep dancing, @marinsanna.”
Clinton quoted Richards’ 1988 keynote speech at the Democratic National Convention referencing Astaire and Rogers, but the line has been attributed to an earlier usage, in a 1982 Frank and Ernest cartoon by Bob Thaves.
Marin apologized after a photo revealed two bare-chested women kissing at her official residence, with one woman’s breasts only covered by a sign reading, “Finland.”
Marin then thanked Clinton on Twitter:
