Carrie Underwood, Brad Paisley SLAM Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump at CMAs!
Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley absolutely destroyed both presidential candidates on last night’s 2016 Country Music Awards … and wow, was it brutal.
They opened their hosting monologue and said, “The race is on and its on every channel, it’s making my head spin.”
“We’re so sick of politics, we don’t even care who wins.”
“Won’t it be refreshing, instead of the election, to watch us all singing up here?” they asked.
“Can you believe a bunch of hillbilly singers been doing this for 50 years?”
We could say the same about the shameful presidential election …
… But most of those folks can’t sing, and this BS has been going on for a lot longer than 50 years, which is the CMAs running tally, and wholly more impressive than this year’s election.
Carrie continued, and announced the winner of the Entertainer of the Year, while Brad rallied behind her shouted “Lies! Crooked Carrie!” imitating Trump’s continued assault on Hillary Clinton.
He interrupted her, and said, “I love all of you [nominees], but hashtag, ‘I’m with Carrie,’ ” referencing Clinton’s campaign slogan.
He wasn’t done there, though.
“What I think doesn’t really matter [though], because this show is rigged,” he said.
“Bigly.”
LOL.
When asked if Paisley would accept the evening’s results, Brad quipped, “Yes, if I win.”
Side note: Paisley wasn’t even nominated for anything, unlike Trump, who, sadly forever and ever, was.
Paisley then called Carrie a “nasty woman,” and said that he would not, in fact, accept the awards show’s results.
The gift basket?
It was called a “bag of deplorables,” of course, which included beer goggles and all things camouflage, as well as orange soda (?).
All in all the segment was pretty entertaining … and to be honest, we’re pretty surprised that there was more Trump-mocking than there was Hillary-bashing, considering the country demographic, which historically leans toward a more conservative candidate.
Not that Trump is conservative in any way, shape, or form … and that’s probably why he just doesn’t resonate with anybody but the crazies.
It’s definitely Los Angeles in the deep south right now, because we’re still not in Kansas after all, friends.

Carrie Underwood-Brad Paisley Monologue Rips Blake, Duggars & More
Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley opened up the 2015 CMA Awards with another humorous monologue at their fellow stars" expense.
They began by musicially riffing on everything that"s "Cray Cray" in Hollywood, including Caitlyn Jenner and Josh Duggar (seriously).
"Things are cray crazy, this world has gone bat poop cray cray," Paisley sang. "McDonald"s breakfasts all day now, Bruce Jenner"s a babe now."
And, bat poop cray cray-est of all, "Trump"s leading in the polls."
"You know what else is cray cray," Paisley then continued.
"How many famous couples have broken up this year! From Ben Affleck to Jennifer Garner, to Halle Berry and what"s his name."
"Of course, we can"t ignore the breakup that really rocked our world, the one that"s on everybody"s mind, two people in this very room."
The camera panned to Kermit and Miss Piggy in the crowd.
"We love you both and just want you to be happy," Carrie Underwood interjected. "On a completely unrelated topic: Howdy Blake!"
Blake Shelton then waved, laughed and grinned.
"Have you heard that duet that Blake did with Ashley Madison," he then joked, confusing the cheating site with singer Ashley Monroe.
Monroe is a longtime friend of Miranda Lambert, Blake"s ex-wife, and a singer-songwriter in her own right who has worked with both.
Carrie and Brad then sang a song about Ashley Madison, ending the tune with the lyrics, "Your cheatin" site will tell on you, Josh Duggar!"
LOL. Any Duggar family-related humor making its way into a national television awards show is an instant winner in our book.
Notably, during the monologue, cameras never panned to Lambert, who went on to win Female Vocalist of the Year as usual.
