Donald Trump had Scott Baio and a “Duck Dynasty” star. Hillary Clinton had Jay-Z and Beyonce, Katy Perry and Bruce Springsteen, Clooney and Leo, Lena Dunham and Amy Schumer, among many, many other A-listers who hosted glittering fundraisers, who raised hundreds of millions of dollars for her.

One takeaway: celebrity endorsements in presidential politics don’t matter anymore.

Another, more likely and long-term: They hurt.

Social media is also part of the problem, giving celebrities a platform to express their opinions on any issue, no matter how banal. Justin Bieber has 65 million followers on Twitter. Kim Kardashian has 32 million; Harry Styles has 24 million. Want to guess the likelihood that income inequality is a recurring topic among this group?

Plenty of stars posted selfies of themselves on line at polling places, or, as Justin Timberlake illegally did, posting a ballot selfie, to no other obvious end than ego gratification. It’s not as though we “insignificants” needed a reminder from famous people to vote in the most consequential election in modern history.

It only goes to show you celebrities only accomplish in alianating half of their so called “fans,” All for the sake of political beliefs. To each their own, so to speak, but they have their financial security assured. They need to understand that many Americans have been hindered by 8 years of the stifling Obama Administration. With a little effort that can be reversed in the next 4 years, and they can get back to singing songs.
