Sep 17 2017 - 6:44pm

Lily Tomlin, Jane Fonda, and Dolly Parton came together for an epic 9 to 5 reunion at the Emmys on Sunday night. While presenting the award for outstanding supporting actor [1] in a limited series or movie, the ladies took the opportunity to take a shot at President Donald Trump [2]. Even though they didn't name him directly, Lily and Jane compared him to Dabney Coleman's Franklin Hart Jr. from the 1980 film. "In 1980, we refused to be controlled by a sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot boss," Jane said. "And in 2017, we still refuse to be controlled by a sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot boss," Lily added. This isn't the first time Lily has called out Trump. At the SAG Awards back in January, Lily compared Trump's political tactics [3] to those of Nazis.
