When it comes to quotes by celebrities, the best might be “Republicans buy shoes, too.” The line was reportedly said by Michael Jordan when he was questioned for his lack of political activism. The meaning was pretty clear: when you get political, you lose half of your audience.
Jordan knew this in the mid-90s, but most other Hollywood celebs have failed to understand this phenomenon. Instead, most have used their platform to bash Donald Trump and push leftist politics over social media.
Comedians, in particular, can't seem to get away from politics. Most notably, Kathy Griffin recently came under intense scrutiny for a photo she shot holding a bloodied, beheaded Donald Trump.
But don't expect Kevin Hart to be the next comedian to joke about killing the president.
See what he said about alienating Trump's voters on the next page:
Trumps doing it for us
Kevin is smart… you can attack trump but he is SUCH a good comedian- he doesn’t need to bring up controversial topics. He’s our comedic relief- that’s all we ask of our comedians and entertainers… be funny- be interesting- stay out of politics
smart man
Good for you Kevin
If you are good at your craft , you don’t need to insult and harass people.
Thank you!!!!!
Smart response my man
Yes.
It’s fine for them to have their own opinion. But when they step up on their soap box and start doing and saying stupid things that’s when the relevance ends for me.
I don’t go out of my way to p**s people off, just because we differ in opinion.
They shouldn’t use fame as a way to show their opinion.
Not bitching… just saying this here because you seem to think the same way.
Sorry about the language, but I think it speaks.
Yes we do!
