Celebrities Pick Their Favorite Dem Presidential Candidates

The presidential cycle is heating up, especially on the Democrat side. Celebrities are now picking who their favorite candidate is by donating money.

According to Fox News:

“Star Wars: Episode IX” director J.J. Abrams and his wife, Katie McGrath, reportedly hosted a party for Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) in March at their home in the Pacific Palisades with several Hollywood elites including Shonda Rhimes. The former allegedly not-quite progressive prosecutor also received financial support from several stars, including Ben Affleck, who donated $2,800; Eva Longoria pledged $5,400; Quincy Jones donated $2,800; and Jon Hamm gave $1,000.

Willie Nelson donated $2,800 to fellow Texan Beto O’Rourke. The guitar-wielding centristDemocrat’s campaign also took in $1,850 from Grateful Dead bassist Phil Lesh, $2,800 from Dave Matthews Band violinist Boyd Tinsley, $5,600 from Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, $1,500 from comedian and “Better Call Saul” star Bob Odenkirk, $2,500 from Texas film director Richard Linklater and $350 from “Saturday Night Live” star Cecily Strong.

Bernie Sanders received $2,700 from Danny DeVito, $2,800 from Susan Sarandon, $2,500 from Grammy winning singer Norah Jones, $1,000 from Phish drummer Jonathan Fishman, $500 from “Silicon Valley” star Thomas Middleditch and $1,000 from Foo Fighters guitarist Christopher Shiflett.

South Bend, Indiana, mayor Pete Buttigieg received $2,000 from “West Wing” star Bradley Whitford, $250 from “Deadpool” star Ryan Reynolds, $500 from NFL network broadcaster Rich Eisen gave $250 from “Game of Thrones” executive producer Carolyn Strauss.

The celebrities usually come out strong for the Dem candidate especially in the race for president. It remains unclear whether the support from Hollywood resonates with average Americans.
