I really don't understand these kind of people. Like, ok, you won. You can afford not to say that shit. It costs you nothing.

Saying that shit makes Trump morons want to give them money so. So they can literally profit off of bigotry.

There are so, so many people these days who would have been much better off if they'd just shut up and fucked off to enjoy their fame and money.

Guliani, Musk, the idiot this headline refers to, Tim Allen, Roseanne Barr, Kevin Sorbo... etc. etc. on and on and on. I'm sure I'm forgetting another dozen or so examples.

If all of these people had just stayed out of it, kept a low profile, and just not said the quiet part out loud, they'd all still have a legacy and probably still be on Trump's good side. But they just can't do that. It's pathological.

Edit: The MAGAts will only like them as long as there's not a more successful celebrity who backs Trump. The support they get from his cult is as a consolation prize. It's not recognition of their achievements or talent, it's just for being someone who says nice things about their guy.

those celebreties you mentioned had brain damaged from strokes and drug, alochol abuse, those things dis inhibit your true colors. tim allen seems to have became that after P45, like MIKE ROWE.

When have you ever known a redneck not to say something stupid when given the opportunity?
