Actress Sally Field (You should pardon the expression.) has dipped her toe into the cesspool of social media, Twitter, according to a Washington Times piece by the great Jessica Chasmar. Sally Field, who played Forrest Gump’s Momma, relayed this earth shattering information to Chelsea Handler on the Thursday, December 1 episode of whatever it is that Chelsea Handler does. Actress Field joined Twitter to gain clarity on the election of Donald Trump. F’real. I know that I go to social media to understand political philosophy.

Sally Field campaigned for Democrat Presidential Candidate and Electoral College Loser, Hillary Clinton. And, was a true believer, if not well informed. From the Washington Times article:

The “Forrest Gump” actress joined Twitter on Nov. 9, the day after the election, under the aptly named handle @realmommagump. She said at the time that she was joining the fast-paced social media network in order to pull her “head out of the sand” where she had been “comfortably ensconced.”
