    He’s been critical of Trump and I’m pretty sure he defines himself as apolitical. I’m not sure where you’re finding that he’s right wing, but I’m open to being proven wrong.

      Upon further research, he seems hard-core apolitical.

      I must have assumed he was like his character that he played on Boston Legal - who was clownishly right-wing.

      Sorry about that improper assumption, and thanks for calling me out on it!

      Anybody who calls themselves apolitical doesn’t recognize how much politics affects us, and in my book, thay makes you kinda dumb.

        Eh, being apolitical doesn’t mean you’re unaware of how much politics affects us. It just means it’s not a subject you’re interested in, which is perfectly acceptable.

          I disagree with the sentiment that it is perfectly acceptable to be apolitical. Governments can and will legislate your right to exist as you do so it is in your interest to be political.

        He can be apolitical in public, and I wish more idiot celebrities would be. You and I don’t need to know his politics. It doesn’t help anything in the grand scheme of things.
