Well, that settles it. If Wesley Crusher says vote for Gul Clin’ton, I’m voting for Gul Clin’ton.

*Trekkers

This disappoints me.
Yet I am unsurprised, since they’re entertainers.
And it changes nothing about my vote for Trump.

Seems Seven of Nine (Jeri Ryan) didn't sign...

She's part of the reason we have Obama today.

“Trekkies” and not “Trekkers”? Can’t even get their own business right and they want to tell the rest of us our business.

She was used by the 0bama campaign.

Bill Clinton found out about how ruthless the 0bama campaign was.

Well, at least his dead best friend in Arkansas did...

Patrick Stewart (Jean Luc Picard) also did not sign.

Apparently, playing a captain of a multi-trillion dollar inter-planetary pseudo-military space ship actually DOES teach some wisdom, namely don’t annoy a huge chunk of your crew (viewers)...

Sulu, Chekov and Wesley Crusher are the only ones I recognize. In short, the losers on the shows. (I don’t go past half way season one of TNG, so your mileage may vary).

As mentioned, no Captain Kirk? Heck, Donald Trump practically IS Captain Kirk!
