Nor would a jurist be allowed to confer with the legal team. Jury tampering is a big deal.

Where is it written that an adult must automatically be of one or the other ?

At least for the actors guild , their preformances didn't cause an insurrection.
The former prezs act did incite that finale '.

I'm glad ppl are talking about their views....
Let's ya Gage the direction ppl are looking towards.

Because they have a bully-pulpit afforded them by their fame and use it to sway public opinion.

You should be concerned about it too. Wasn't that long that Deniro, Jenny McCarthy, Jim Carey and a dozen other celebs were pushing anti-vaxx conspiracy theories and that sort of star power really didn't help us as their disinformation still floats around to this day.

As for "Who cares?", if Oprah or Kylie Jenner etc. tweet how much they looove some new product or song...it's going to go nuts, I mean you can't seriously be claiming people don't listen to Hollywood types?

...and this is worse than impeaching him without a trial or evidence? They just voted based on their feewings.

You are correct. The vindictiveness towards him and anyone that supported is definitely shocking. I think this is where we are as a society though, we can thank the media, social media and mindless followers for that.

I have personally cancelled Hollywood.
It’s very sad because I am, or was, a huge movie buff, at least of films thru the mid 90’s, but I’ve deaded it all. Will anybody care? Of course not, but I do. And it feels great.

I’d also like to add that the Dems token black president roasted Trump about running for president, the joke was on them when trump won it big.

Hollywood celebs are entitled to express their opinions, same as anyone else. What dismays me is that so many mindless followers hang on their every word like they're the Oracle of Delphi or something.

F Hollywood! Just a bunch of over paid, snooty narcissist's who think they know all and are above everyone. All they do is live their lives pretending to be someone else. What a joke! Just a bunch of morons, losers and freaks who know nothing about the real world.
