Feel the burn. Literally so stupid, it hurts.
I don’t care how well you act; how well you front a band; or even how well you play a certain sport. Conservative, liberal, middle-of-the-road, whatever. Just don’t buy off on your own hype.
Yes, I’m talking to you, George Clooney; and you, Ted Nugent; and you LeBron James. Guys, you’ve made your fortunes by being entertainers. Do just that – entertain.
To be perfectly honest, the worst offenders are the actors. For whatever bizarre reason, a hefty percentage of actors honestly believe just because they played a president or a war hero or a crime-busting cop, that somehow makes them qualified as domestic and foreign policy experts, tactical and strategic geniuses, or as the best detective this side of Allan Pinkerton.
Remember, folks… actors pretend for a living. Don’t ever ask an actor to describe “the real me.” They have no clue who their real selves are. They can only parrot the words that someone else puts in their mouths.
Now we come to actor Jeff Daniels. In a slow-pitch softball interview by (reliable lapdog) Nicole Wallace, Daniels opined that a Kamala Harris presidency would be like that of President Abraham Lincoln’s. In light that Honest Abe shit all over the constitutional right of habeas corpus, he might be on to something there.
Not quite done being dumb, dumber, and dumbest, Daniels went on to say that a Democrat-controlled America would be “you know, kind of like Jesus did.”
