You can be a life long Republican and not vote for Trump.

I am a member of Liberal party, but I don't see myself voting for Trudeau the next time around. I am also a member of the Green Party and only ever voted for them once.

Why does being a Republican mean you have to vote for them every time?

One of the bad things about the Trump era is how disappointing it has been to see famous people you like or admire endorse him.

Really Chris Pratt? Brett Favre? Herschel Walker? Theo Fleury?

Mostly B-listers and has-beens like Kid Rock, James Woods, Scott Baio and Kristine Alley. So it hadn't been that big of a deal.

But when I saw Craig Ferguson pop up on my Twitter feed, my heart sunk.

I'm excited that it might be Bernie in Labor (I may or may not work there...) Also, I'm just so happy that this 4 year nightmare is finally over!

Would love to see Ro Khanna in the Senate. He's exactly the type of candidate that could bring working class votes back to the Democrats if he starts getting a higher profile.

Lol, Bernie will never get confirmed for a cabinet position.

I don't think he would accept it. He's a one-man wolf pack.

I also can't see him being easy to work with. He leads an offshoot that opposes Biden on too many things.

Pete would be a better suited to Chief of Staff or Ambassador to the UN than a relatively invisible Cabinet position like VA.

Don’t think that one is true:

Quote:
Pratt has never openly discussed his political views on social media and CNN reports that he donated money to Barack Obama's campaign back in 2012.

However, he is also on record saying he doesn't support either side of the Democrat/Republican divide.
