[Macho MAGA Man]

This is blowing my mind about Paul Anka. He and Trump are long time friends and was booked to perform at his inauguration in 2017 but had to bow out at the last minute due to a custody dispute. He’s also Jason Bateman’s father in-law.

$28M for this bozo?! Unbelievable!

[Rummyfan]

Griffin’s chance to schmooze with the A-listers and maybe find some work.

[Rummyfan]

Look at that list and tell me Dems are for the working man. Not hardly!

Paul Anka’s No 1 hit, “(You’re) Having My Baby” recorded in 1974, was long-considered
a pro-life song, released soon after the shocking 1973 USSC decision legalizing abortion.

His daughter is married to Jason Bateman.

It actually clarifies things. He showed support for President Trump. Now, he must repent for the rest of his life, or else.

Corrupt,Baby killers,war mongers,sham environmentalist, perverts, atheist,propagandists,liars, big spenders of OPM,AmericanN haters,rich but clueless.
Have I missed anyone?

[Leep]

Me too. Maybe he went soft in the head?

[JimmyTheFish]

Humorless comedians love Biden.

[MCSETots]

Thousands of Biden supports??? Sure, let’ see some photos.

Just wondering what the turnout would have been if the Bamster wasn’t there . . .

The timing of this star-studded event could not have been worse for Biden and the Democrats.

On the same day Biden was hobnobbing with mostly white, rich, and famous Hollywood elites, Trump was in the Detroit 'hood, meeting with blacks to hear their concerns and offer solutions.

Hoping Trump runs commercials juxtaposing these events to show who really cares the most about the AA community.

Manure tanker arrives in hollywood glee fills the air.

Looks like a list of major league douchebags. I had little respect for anyone dumb enough to vote for a moron like Joe Biden the first time. After 4 years of incompetence and stupidity I have nothing but contempt for the idiots who still want Biden to be president. If I run into a Biden voter they better not tell me they support him.

[LizzieD]

At this point, to be so blindly partisan in the face of such obvious corruption, incompetence and mental frailty does not say much for the intelligence of these attendees. Basically they would support a Port-a-Potty if it had the letter “D” on it. They should be embarrassed.

[RckyRaCoCo]

Easier to just say “bucket of sh t”

[Jane Long]

Pedos on Parade?

I once got a crazy standing ovation for my rendition of “Destiny” in Las Vegas around 10 years ago.
First and only time I ever sang in front of anybody.
It was Jim Beam that got me on that stage that night.

Sad to see Anka and Bateman on that list.
