Donald Trump has made waves throughout the election season as an incredibly polarizing candidate who seemingly attracts either staunch support or utter disdain. Ali Vingiano, a BuzzFeed employee who has produced and acted in several viral videos, can safely be placed in the latter category. She took to Twitter to broadcast her true feelings about Trump, potentially breaking company rules in the process.
Can't wait to watch a misogynistic white supremacist become more likable in the public eye this weekend on @nbcsnl ✌
— Ali Vingiano (@alivingiano) November 5, 2015
The real estate billionaire is set to appear on the November 7th taping of Saturday Night Live.
Vingiano got her start as a reporter for BuzzFeed and now works as a video producer, churning out short videos with titles like “What It’s Like to Break Up on Your Anniversary” and “What You Actually Want to Say During a Job Interview.” Her videos have been shared thousands of times across social media.
According to the BuzzFeed ethics guide, “reporters and editors should refrain from commenting in a partisan way about candidates or policy issues.” Vingiano did just that. However, a spokesman for Buzzfeed told The Blaze that Vingiano will not find herself in any trouble because the company she works for, officially called BuzzFeed Motion Pictures, has its own set of guidelines.
Vingiano opinion has become popular across the Internet, with various petitions circulating that call for a boycott of Saturday Night Live and NBC for allowing Trump to appear. The GOP presidential candidate earned the ire of Latino rights groups for his aggressive rhetoric on immigration; Trump claimed that Mexico sends its criminals to the United States and has insisted that he will build a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border to stem the flow of illegal immigration.
