Let's pretend for one moment that he does die before the election, just for the funsies. What happens then? Will the nomination revert to option number 2, aka Bernie Sanders? Or will his running mate automatically replace him just the way Vice-President is supposted to step in after the Big Man in the White House chokes on a piece of matzo? Does he even have a running mate yet?

In all seriousness, Batista runs circles around him acting wise, seeing as Dwayne has now been typecasted as "generic action hero #63352345".

Dave Batista is also TDS sperg that regularly calls the President a dictator. He’s trying to do what the Rock has done as well as far as acting goes. Plus, he was also the one of the actors who sided with James Gunn when was caught with posts on the Internet joking about pedos and wanting to rape kids.

Yea, I remember that... not a good look, Batista.

He was decent in Blade Runner 2049 so that works for him, though.

Why... why... WHY haven't the Republicans created their own ostensibly neutral fact checking website and small org? They have completely ceded this ground to the left.

They'll finally be up to date with tech in about 10 more years. Just have to get the younger Republicans into more political seats.

I decided to rewatch the 2016 debates and something stood out to me - just how plastic, polished and greasy slick Clinton's presentation was the whole time. Joe can't pull off the level of sleazy gloss Clinton put on every word. That might actually be to his advantage though, given that Clinton's obvious designed-word-by-word-by-focus-group answers went down pretty poorly.

There's a line in the movie Get Smart which has become one of my favorite lines in cinema, when KAOS is planning to detonate a bomb in LA, and one of the henchmen says "still, it's a shame about all the dead movie stars," to which Siegfried responds "oh yes, what will we do without their razor sharp political advice?"

Perhaps more ironically than it should be, Boulderman starred in that movie as a KAOS agent.

Create fact checkers fact checking the fact checks that are then fact checked by the original fact checkers then re-fact checked by the fact checkers who fact check the fact checkers that are then rebutted by....

Who knows. Maybe the Rock is just prepping up for his candidacy in 2024 for the Democrat party. God knows they'll pretty much have no other standard bearer they could rely on that isn't a nutjob (AOC), in their late 70s (most of the democrat big whigs are right now), is utterly uncharismatic (pretty much every Democrat you see mouth off in public), or is somebody you haven't heard of.

Why are people even mildly surprised The Rock would endorse Biden? He's a shitty actor who makes movies so stupid I'm pretty sure only the chinks watch them. It shouldn't surprise anyone, as pretty much all celebrities suffer from TDS. Only one I can think of that hasn't sperged out at the mere mention of Drumpf was Robert Pattinson who just thought it was humorously surreal that a guy who used to tweet about how he should dump Kristen Stewart was now the president.

Remember the shitstorm that came about when Tim Allen compared being a conservative in Hollywood to living in the Weimar republic?
I am at the point where I honestly suspect that post-2000 celebrities have some sort of clause in their contracts that state they must embrace liberal ideals or be ostracized from the group. It really became noticeable with Bush and the Iraq War, then they all got super emboldened and developed god complexes when Obama got elected, then they melted the fuck down when Trump beat Hillary, and now they're so stuck in TDS mode that almost overnight they went from sucking Bernie's wrinkly balls and talking shit about Biden being an establishment drone to wishing they were the ones whose hair Biden was sniffing.

If they did, who would bother going there. And google would bury the website as well. Conservapedia is an excellent example of how shit right wingers are.

The new right wingers and Trump supporters are majority ex-democrats along with Trump himself. They have a different take on things and are more likely to question those sites than create their own.

Not to mention, we're talking about actors, here. Their entire job is to stand where they're told to stand and say words someone else wrote for them. They spend so long subsuming their identity into other roles that they lose it, over time. I bet most of them have no idea who they are any more.

When an actor endorses a political position in concert with the majority of their profession, it's just another acting job.

You ever wonder why there's so much celebrity romance drama? I'd argue this is it. Sure, your partner says all the right things to you and makes you feel special and warm and loved, and then you go see their latest feature film with them and there they are, selling to the world that they feel the exact same way about fictional character #287 they've romanced. But of course, with you it's real... right?

Same deal in politics, when flip-floppy people like Biden start getting their records brought up they usually blame the times, but all that really means is that they were going with the flow and weren't really presenting their true beliefs. Now that he's running for president though, we'll get the 100% true and honest Joe Biden... right?
