You know, I was thinking about that as well.

I don't fucking get it. They "speak out" but have nothing to gain. Does DeNiro really think that people are going to be all "I'm going to see this movie because he hates Drumph!". Or all those singers etc that are speaking out blah blah. All this does is polarize their fan base. They won't gain any fans because people are fans based on talent and not on political views, and they risk losing some due to basically saying to half their fans "You are stupid because you voted for Trump". No one's going to buy someone's cds or go to a concert to listen to music they dislike because "OMG THIS LADY HATES TRUMP JUST LIKE ME!!!".

These celebrities must really feel that they are important influential people if they think they are changing anyone's mind about anything. I think for most people celebrities are just someone you watch for 1,5 hrs and then forget exist until the next time you see a movie trailer.
