(a) $8.7 million is a laughably small amount in presidental election terms. Trump had to tap some single random donor for literally 10 times more, for literally nothing about the election, just that he didn't feel like keeping his mouth closed about some woman he assaulted

(b) I suspect it's big on "GOP" and small on "Hollywood" within that distribution. I'm sure there are some vocal media people who feel like writing a check to Republican causes, but the vast vast majority of the money flows in the other direction there

Wait… Hollywood is supporting Trump now? When did this start?

[–] TheBat 15 points 3 months ago (2 children)

There are Republican/Christo-fascists in Hollywood too.

Who what do you think keeps making masterpieces like 'God isn't dead' or 'Sound of Freedom'?

I always thought that garbage came from some podunk town in some shithole red state.

Nah, a lot of republican politics comes from Orange County. Like it’s actually annoying living in a reddish state and dealing with the Californians who keep moving to blue parts of the state and acting like conservative shit heels. Like, bruh you live in a major city stop acting like all us midwesterners are as bigoted as you

Harvey Weinstein has to support his own kind in hopes of a pardon...

How? Where?

The greatest act Hollywood ever managed was convincing the world that they're liberal or progressive.

Hmmmm. True.

I know podcasts like Theo Von and Joe Rogan are giving him a platform, wouldn't be surprised if they are also donating to his campaign.

RFK is just real life Connor Roy.

He should give that to Trump. Dude has a lot of legal bills.

He supports codifying Roe v Wade and doesn't trust the government to make the decision for anyone. He used to support a 15 week ban but has changed his opinion.

He is pro-Israel but has said some questionable things which some people have taken to be anti-semetic. The big questionable comment was that Covid was engineered and that Asian and Jewish people are less susceptible to it, implying that the Jews were at least partially responsible for Covid. He claims that conclusion came from early studies from when the pandemic started. He is definitely a Covid conspiracy person and was not a fan of any of the mandatory Covid responses.

He is pro-Israel but has said some questionable things which some people have taken to be anti-semetic.

So he hates Jews and loves Zionists. The very definition of anti Semitism.

What makes this guy different from any other Republican?

[–] Duamerthrax 3 points 3 months ago

So he claims that covid is real, but doesn't want to do anything about it? There were people who thought covid was engineered and took extreme caution, which was better then believing it was a hoax. This guy took the worse position possible on covid then?
