Celebrities: #StandUpForUS
Quote:A slew of high-profile stars — including Sally Field, former "The View" co-host Rosie Perez, “Westworld’s” Jeffrey Wright, Keegan-Michael Key and “Boardwalk Empire” actor Steve Buscemi — are calling on Congress to “vigorously oppose” any of President-elect Donald Trump’s “racist, sexist, anti-immigrant, anti-worker, anti-Muslim, anti-Semitic, anti-environmental policies.”
“We demand that you block nominees who threaten the rights of women, the LGBT community, people of color, immigrants and the poor,” Key and Field say in the video released Tuesday, the same day the 115th Congress is poised to be sworn in.

Please, please, please for the love of God, shut up. I'm not much of a Trump fan at all, but no one gives a flying F what you celebrities think. Take a cue from what Mark Wahlberg said, don't talk about politics because you have no idea how actual Americans live. And unless Scott Baio and Stephen Baldwin's opinions suddenly carry a lot of weight, this last election proved that you have no effect on anything. The fact that you're still talking says that your side hasn't learned a damn thing from this election.

RE: Celebrities: #StandUpForUS
All of these videos are exactly the same. I love how they think jump cuts with different celebrities saying the same thing over and over makes their melodramatic propaganda hit home. So disconnected and hilarious.

I think Sally Field is more of the old mold Conservative actress than the others.

I could care less what these people say. I understand however that the temptation to offer opinions when a mic is put in your face is extremely hard to resist.

See the sad thing is I would not blame the dems, at all, for making it hard to appoint people they don't like. But for the past eight years they have been winging every time an Obama appointee was questioned.
Back in 2013 Schumer said: “It’s appalling. I mean, how many times are they just going to throw logs on the process of government? I mean, even district court judges, for lord’s sake.”

There have been many celebrities of both sides and Independents that have came out against Trump. Even The Terminator spoke out against Trump.
