I can understand why they cast Cain in that show; Supergirl's cast was filled with people who'd been involved with previous Superman projects. I still don't get why they cast Sorbo, though.

They just didn’t know?

Supergirl predates MAGA, it predates the first Trump presidency. Back then, those people kept that shit to themselves mostly.

Sorbo has been pretty open about his conservatism for a while. God's Not Dead predates MAGA, too (2014).

True, but back then the worst thing about the GOP was Dubya. There was still a belief that Conservatives could be reasoned with.
