I like the shirt. That story where I let the Knucklehead Power guy hang at my shop while the Ford dealer fixed something on his tow rig. Chuck Deluxe wouldn't let him hang out over there. Really cool guy. Wrestlers and stuff would eat at Applebee's on the way to the rally. Probably John Cena too, idk. Fastenal guy told me about that part. Not sure all who was with. Goldberg and whoever. 👑K💜🇺🇸

Alienating a large portion of your entertainment audience is simply bad business.

People who are mechanics, retail clerks or really any regular job can post about politics all day every day but a famous person does it and their heads explode. Movie stars are allowed to have opinions as well. Should the mechanic be told to stick to oil changes? Of course not

Replying to @nypost
Billy Bob Thornton just did what most actors won’t: take the mic and leave the politics backstage.
Replying to @nypost
Rich guy tired of hearing things that normal Americans deal with.

Billy Bob didn’t just call them out—he called their bluff. Turns out the real award is for Most Self-Righteous Monologue.
Replying to @nypost
When the trophy becomes a soapbox, the audience tunes out. Thornton just said what the crowd stopped clapping for years ago.

He needs an award for speaking out about this!

Nypost check into Sam Elliot. I have a feeling Kamala shook him down for endorsement and maybe his life savings. He had to go back to work and slipped up and said I can't tell u why I had to go back to work. SOMETHING is up there .Landman gave him a job he desperately needed.

Replying to @nypost
being silent is a political statement
Replying to @nypost
Thornton calls himself a *radical moderate*, I hope u realize MAGAts that this doesn’t mean he’s MAGA—he’s probably an Independent.
Replying to @nypost
Billy Bob: “Accept your little award and f*** off.” Hollywood: “But we rehearsed our climate speech!”

NEWS FLASH 🚨 No one, of sane mind, gives a rat's ass about any celebrity's political opinion. You're making fools of yourselves and putting nails in the coffin of your career. You're paid to act. Adjust yourselves accordingly. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
