A gif of Sarandon shaking her head looking displeased is [making its way](http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/susan-sarandon-is-not-loving-the-dnc%5Fus%5F57974e9be4b0d3568f8462ce?section=) [around the internet](http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/susan-sarandon-tweets-worst-time-dnc-article-1.2726683). The tweet, captioned “Susan Sarandon is literally having the worst time at the #DemConvention” went viral. > [](https://twitter.com/Ian%5FMcK%5F/status/757734827508527105) Sarandon had acknowledged the tweet and replied “accurate.” > [](https://twitter.com/SusanSarandon/status/757745744057106434) The week was off to a rough start with the resignation of Democratic Party chairwoman [Debbie Wasserman Schultz](http://time.com/4421045/debbie-wasserman-schultz-dnc-chair-resign-convention), but on Monday night Michelle Obama gave a [rousing speech](http://motto.time.com/4423727/michelle-obama-dnc-convention-speech-quotes/) about her children and the future. Elizabeth Warren denounced Donald Trump. Even fellow actress [Sarah Silverman](http://time.com/4423172/democratic-convention-sarah-silverman/) admonished “Bernie or Bust” advocates for acting “ridiculous.” But that didn’t seem to win Sarandon over. [She later tweeted, “I’m out.](http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/susan-sarandon-tweets-worst-time-dnc-article-1.2726683)“ DNC: Susan Sarandon is Having 'Literally the Worst Time' ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4424933/dnc-susan-sarandon-worst-time/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4424933/dnc-susan-sarandon-worst-time/"},"headline":"Susan Sarandon Does Not Care For the DNC","datePublished":"2016-07-26T20:31:47.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T09:03:00.774Z","description":"Gifs don't lie","url":"https://time.com/4424933/dnc-susan-sarandon-worst-time/","keywords":["motto"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt79dc5902a523efa6/69889f7bcd1bba0480701a8f/susan-sarandon-dnc-miserable-bernie-sanders.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"TIME Staff","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/time-staff/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt79dc5902a523efa6/69889f7bcd1bba0480701a8f/susan-sarandon-dnc-miserable-bernie-sanders.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"2016 Democratic National Convention - Day 1","caption":"2016 Democratic National Convention - Day 1","creditText":"Paul Morigi—WireImage/Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/motto/","name":"motto"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4424933/dnc-susan-sarandon-worst-time/","name":"Susan Sarandon Does Not Care For the DNC"}}]}] ```
