Bradley Cooper's appearance at the Democratic National Convention Wednesday night has irked some conservative fans of the actor's portrayal of Navy SEAL Chris Kyle in 2014's "American Sniper."

Cooper was spotted by TV cameras seated at the meeting in Philadelphia alongside his Russian model girlfriend, Irina Shayk.

Some Twitter users say they plan to boycott Cooper's future films over his presence at the convention. Another commented that they thought his experience playing Kyle would have rubbed off on him.

Actors are paid to play “make believe”. They are as childish as the game they play. There was a time where actors were held in low esteem. They ranked somewhere along with court jesters.

Yeah I used to wonder how tom hanks after everything he did for ww2 veterans hasn’t figured it out.
Then again he got bitch slapped real quick when he went against klinton on the rape charge.

It is good to see that many forum posters grasp the fact that these people are only actors. The real tragedy being we are supposed to worship their opinions because we like their acting skill. We all know acting skill makes one a military, foreign affairs, economic and political genius! /s/

Most healthy growing and expanding societies have even formally excluded them; i.e. 16th century London would not allow actors and actresses to stay in the city over night. The Roman scorned them and refused them citizenship etc.

A guy who played a Marine is being paid to play a communist?

Where is Clint Eastwood and his empty chair?

I think we deserve to see that image again.

Remember, in Hollywood, “To get along, you go along”. You want to work, you’d better toe the Party Line.

He’s an actor that PLAYED Kyle.

That’s what actors do.

This. There are hollywood types that are good people, but don't make the mistake of ever assuming their intentions based on a role they play. Actors play good and bad roles and they are simply that, roles. After their part is finished, they walk away and rarely give it a second thought. It's a paycheck for them.

It was a movie. He is an actor. If you can't separate those two facts from reality then you have big problems.

I guess some people think that actors really are the characters they portray. Sad.

On another note, I hope he was wise enough to stay away from Barbara Walters.

“Just added another one to the list..”

No kidding. American Sniper is an excellent movie, portraying the life of an American patriot and hero. I’ve watched the movie a few times, but now, if I watch it again it will always be in the back of my mind that a libtard is playing the role of Chris. I wish I hadn’t seen this article.

WHY is everybody missing the real story here?

Cooper was spotted by TV cameras seated at the meeting in Philadelphia alongside his Russian model girlfriend, Irina Shayk.

He *is* conservative and he's there getting sensitive information from the DNC on behalf of his Russian masters and the Trump campaign! It's so obvious!

Back in the Alias days, I saw in the IMDb message boards that he likes men. I wonder if that’s what you mean.
