They can’t help themselves.
Every four years Hollywood puts the remains of its dignity in a cool, dry place and shills for the Democrat du jour.
Kerry. Obama. Clinton. Biden. And now Vice President Kamala Harris.
They mostly kept quiet in the waning days of President Joe Biden’s final presidential campaign. Sure, Mark Hamill yukked it up with White House Spokesperson Karine Jean-Pierre and late-night propagandists passed the hat for Biden.
No! He’s fine, not frozen! He’s just auditioning for the Tin Man role next week.
Most stars kept on the sidelines, likely aware of Biden’s cognitive decline. Now, they’re rushing to the nearest microphone or Zoom camera to sing Harris’ praises.
She’s black! She’s a woman! She’s Indian! She’s not orange! She doesn’t have to call it a day at 4:00 pm! Did we mention she’s a woman?

Ben Stiller’s pro-Harris shtick could make you re-evaluate a remarkable career. He not only starred in iconic comedies like “Zoolander,” “Meet the Parents” and more. He directed a few classics, too, including “The Cable Guy” and “Tropic Thunder.” Now, he’s challenging Harris for a word salad shootout:
She’s also a historic candidate…It’s going to be the first woman president, and that’s incredibly exciting. She’s Indian, she’s Black, she’s everything. You can be more than one thing, it’s incredible.
We waited until 2024 to realize people could be more than one ethnicity? Thank you, Ben! Wait until former President Barack Obama hears the news.
Previously, Oscar-winner Jeff Bridges highlighted the “White Dudes for Harris” Zoom soiree featuring equally banal cheerleading:
I’m so excited. A woman president, man. How exciting! And her championing of women’s rights, I’m for that.
Could someone pass him a script? Stat!
Rosie O’Donnell bragged about buying 100 Harris T-shirts, and she won’t take them off until she emerges victorious on Election Day.
Courage, as Dan Rather might say.
