David Lynch
President Trump recently quoted a right-wing article that had David Lynch praising the President of the United States. The quote read, “He could go down as one of the greatest presidents in history because he has disrupted the thing so much. No one is able to counter this guy in an intelligent way.” Lynch later clarified his statement after receiving a backlash from Hollywood, saying he’s still undecided on Trump’s legacy. Lynch was a Bernie Sanders supporter but according to a recent tweet, it seems more than willing to support Trump, but only if Trump stop dividing and can start uniting the country.
Dorothy Hamill
Hamill won an Olympic Gold medal back in 1976 and along with her haircut, took the country by storm. In 2004, the iconic figure skater stepped off the ice and took to fundraisers and rallies to support Republican politicians, George W. Bush and Dick Cheney. Dorothy also came out in 2006 in support of the Mitt Romney / Paul Ryan ticket. She attended the Republican National Convention that year and since then has been an unwavering supporter of Republican candidates. In 2007, she presented first lady Laura Bush with the Academy of Achievement Golden Plate Award.
Gloria Estefan
Gloria was born in Havana, Cuba but grew up in Miami. Her father was a political prisoner in Cuba for 2 years after Fidel Castro’s revolution. She has widely been considered a Republican, but has recently come out to clarify. She says, “I hate boxes, I’m not Republican, I’m not Democrat, I’m not even an independent.” She was, however, appointed by George W. Bush to speak at the United Nations Third Committee on Human Rights about Cuba. That is one topic she can be absolutely clear about. She declines to talk about politics, but she will say this: she is 100% against Castro. “I’m pro-embargo…the only embargo in Cuba is Fidel’s embargo against the people.” She’s also a strong supporter of legal immigration and “good security on the border.”
