Hollywood celebrities butting into politics is nothing new. The practice of Hollywood’s glitterati endorsing a candidate can be traced all the way back to the 1920s when Al Jolson wrote a song for Warren Harding. Frank Sinatra and his ‘Rat Pack’ buddies famously stumped for JFK, penning the song High Hopes for his campaign. Babe Ruth came out for a candidate. So did Judy Garland, Orson Welles, Humphrey Bogart, and many others. Yet, there is one big difference between those previous celebrity endorsements and modern times: balance.

In the past, you would see celebrities come out for both Democrats and Republicans. Many didn’t even stay within party lines. When someone was good for the country, a celebrity would endorse him. Sinatra later went on to endorse Ronald Reagan. Sammie Davis Jr. went from singing for JFK to hugging Richard Nixon at his inauguration. You will never see this happen now.
Not only will you not see that today, but celebrities will actively attempt to shame you if you do not vote their way. Somewhere along the way, it went from admiring celebrities for their talents to borderline idolatry. This twisted the industry. When they aren’t worshiping L. Ron Hubbard, they’re pushing Kabbalah, or very often outright Satanism.
And celebrities have used this newfound worship to try and tell the rest of America how to live.
Irony
Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye. Matthew 7:5
As their own state crumbles around them from a Communist-lite Democrat supermajority, Hollywood celebrities believe they know what is best for those gun-loving, bible-thumping “flyover states.” This in itself is the height of irony coming from an industry that actively shielded serial sexual predator Harvey Weinstein for decades just because he could get them high paying jobs in exchange for sexual favors.
Seth MacFarlane calls out Harvey Weinstein back in 2013
This is the same industry that gave convicted pedophile Roman Polanski a standing ovation in 2003. And did anyone ever get charged or exposed after child–actor Corey Feldman said this about the abuse he and friend Corey Haim were subjected to?
“I’m saying that there are people that were people that did this to both me and Corey, that are still working, they’re still out there, and they’re some of the richest, most powerful people in this business,” he admitted, adding, “And they do not want me saying what I’m saying right now.”
The two Corey’s were passed around like sex-dolls as children, yet the people who did it are still being protected by an industry that has the gall to say they know “what is best for America.”
JLo spent 30 mins crying and warning everyone about Donald Trump but she didn’t warn one single person about Diddy.
Ok. Got it.

Repudiation
When Kamala’s campaign began to wane, the presidential hopeful turned to a string of her celebrity pals for help. There is no point in listing them because, basically, anyone who could be considered an A-list celebrity came out in her favor. Sports stars like LeBron James and Stephen Curry endorsed her and spoke at her rallies.
Since LeBron James is trending on 𝕏 for endorsing Kamala Harris, here he is with P Diddy saying:
“Ain’t no Party like a Diddy Party” 🤔

Many celebrities flew to swing states to personally ask people to vote for their candidate. It was certain the beautiful people’s presence would sway the election.
Samual L. Jackson is voting for Kamala Harris… because they love the same curse word… 🤦🏻♂️

Politicians pathetically begged pop-star Taylor Swift to endorse her for months. When she finally did, democrats and the media called an end to the race. Surely the Swiftie cult would go out in droves to vote for Kamala Harris in a landslide.
Yet, none of that helped. Donald Trump swept every swing state a day after LeVar Burton flew to Pennsylvania to add his ‘star power’ to Kamala. Not only did the Swifties not ensure a landslide, Donald Trump also shockingly won the popular vote. A Republican hasn’t won the popular vote in two decades.
This is a clear repudiation of Hollywood and their hypocritical celebrities. The days of a celebrity’s opinion meaning anything to the average American are over. If it ever existed at all. Whether you are Democrat or Republican, one of the best outcomes from this election is telling celebrities that they do not matter. That they are no more than court jesters who are extremely out of touch with the average American and should stick to entertainment.
Kamala Harris will be the 47th President of the United States.

Perhaps these partisan Hollywood elites should clean up the degeneracy in their own industry before they try and tell the rest of us how to live and who to vote for. We might take them a bit more seriously.
