About this episode
With Trump back on the campaign trail the country is more united than ever. A lot of people don't like the guy, but that's because they're told not to like him. If you have no social life, and spend 90% of your time watching YouTube, you're definitely more likely to support him.
Celebrities whose careers' peaked long ago are the least likely to intentionally support him, because voicing their distaste for him is the only way they can feel relevant again. If you're a celebrity currently at the peak of your success, you're probably not going around bashing Trump, because why would you? Success doesn't make you bitter. It's only when it dries up that you become like Barbra Streisand, Rob Reiner, Stephen King, and Luke Skywalker.
The one exception is Taylor Swift, who's currently peaking in success. The reason she voices her distaste for Trump is simply be because Kanye actively supported him. It's easier to point your ire towards some old white guy than the person who actually slighted you.
