Ellen DeGeneres Will Get Political in 2020, Just Not On Her Show: ‘We Need a Change’
Yahoo! Entertainment ^ | May 9, 2019 | Michael Schneider, Variety

Posted on 05/08/2019 11:50:03 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Ellen DeGeneres isn’t ready to throw her support behind a single Democratic presidential candidate to face off with Donald Trump, but she hints that she may be leaning toward one. DeGeneres told Variety that although she remains mostly apolitical on her talk show and in her standup, she’ll definitely be involved in the 2020 campaign.

“I care deeply about our country and what’s happening to it,” she said Thursday at Raleigh Studios, where Netflix held an Emmy campaign event for her standup special “Relatable.” “And the world, the environment and everything that’s going on. I have my opinions. I try not to bring it in. I’m not a political comedian. I’m political but I’m not the kind of person that’s going to talk about politics in standup. But I definitely think that we need a change, and we’ll figure out who that person is. I’m going to wait and see who ends up getting everybody’s vote and we’ll see who I get behind… I kind of have a candidate but I’m just going to wait.”

Even though she doesn’t get specifically political on her show, DeGeneres has invited several candidates on to discuss their plans, including Pete Buttigieg and Cory Booker.

I don’t think her ‘change’ matters much. You look at her viewing crowd....mostly women between 18 and 35...mostly all white...mostly of college-variety education background. She can’t relate to blacks, Latinos, working-class people, or the economy. On face-value, I’d say she’s attached now to the CNN-sinking ship. Her numbers will start to shrink.

Once Hollywood and the entertainment industries got actively involved in our presidential politics, the country hasn’t been the same since. Started in earnest during JFK’s term.

She's right, you know.

Here's one. You need to quit combing your hair like a boy, Ellen.

“Ellen Degenerate, why should I care about what she thinks?”

Like it or not she is among the democrats demigods on this road to oceania. Her worshippers will not easily be dislodged from her views. And she has a sirensong that pleases a great number of people.

When watching the tide roll in the change is subtle. But it’s unrelenting. And you know that shortly the tide will be over the piers lapping the waterline. So it is with our journey to oceania. We can only delay the inevitable. It is our children who will watch their children paying the price to relieve themselves of the tyranny brought by our generation.

I mow my lawn, tend my garden, work and pay my bills. But I dont need a weatherman to know which way the wind is blowing. We are on the road to oceania, my only question being who is Emmanuel Goldstein?

Oh, OK... I'll just wait and see who she like before I decide who I want to vote for.

Nope... don't care. I think I'll make up my own mind.

So much of what is on tv today is so slanted Demonrat that it all should be considered in-kind donations to the party and candidates. Trump & the GOP should be given just as much free airtime.
