There is a difference though. Kirstie Alley is not out pushing an agenda, she just supports the President in her social media with her followers. She’s not going on CNN and saying she will move out of the country if Biden wins or losing her mind and calling for violence like so many of these celebs who convey the approved positions on topics.

I read her original remark and it was pretty tame, just saying who she's voting for. She wasn't obnoxious about it or denigrating anyone who isn't voting for T. It's unnecessary to call her out though. I don't care anyways who "stars" vote for.

The reason anyone even knows who Kirstie Alley is, is because she went from being a hot bombshell on the 1980's sit com CHEERS, and then immediately became obese right before our very eyes.

That's what she's known for, and that's why we all know who she is.

Can anyone name any of the other stars of that fabulous show by name? Besides Sam Malone?

Who in the world cares what she thinks about politics?

I'm not saying everyone should get along.

I'm saying we should see value in each side, right and left and stop ripping our country in half to the point of civil war.

And I'm saying hollywood, or sports figures, might not be the best source of enlightened political commentary. It's divisive and worthless.

Why do so many celebrities feel compelled to publicly endorse any politician? It’s all about the celebrity’s ego.

I cannot imagine being influenced by who any celebrity endorses or opposes.
That's not what this thread is about.
