    So the country's future is in the hands of shallow voters.

    As an often accused (and accurately so) 'conspiracy theorist', this is the first I've heard of this one. Sounds pretty contrived. More like something the political establishment is hoping to provoke than something that is actually happening.

    Is it really though? Or is it just media that's hyping it up and as a result its getting more traction than it normally would have if it had just been consigned to social media?

    The reason I ask is because with today's division some, or maybe even most, may not really care, but "takes up the cause" just to spite the other side. I think that is mostly what its about.

    You didn't click the link, did you?

    Usually, blanket statements are used to cover up the desire to not engage in the topic.

    I believe OP. A celeb that has that much of a base is politically influential and with the average age due to liberal policies of a person leaving their parents house by 45 at the earliest, they can definitely vote! Nothing we can do! Free speech is free speech. Luckily for her, when the people she promotes takes our guns, her armed security guards in her mansions will still be ARMED.

    They are celebrities because of their skills at understanding and speech. But I don't know how having a good voice makes you have knowledgeable and intuitive things to say.

    No they're not.
    They're famous because media made them famous.
    Trump was infamous before he was famous. He was the butt of jokes for decades. His public cheating on his wives. His bankruptcies.
    Trump was basically a Kardashian.

    I assume you include me in your descriptor of " maga world "..... So for your further information I just thought I should let you know that I could care less about her.

    So lets see if I get this right, being influenced by celebrities on who you vote for as President is bad and 'shallow'. Voting for a reality TV star for President is not only good and moral, but vital for America. Another day in MAGAland.
