    1. Everyone says the Democrats are too close to Hollywood, whose elite coastal values offend the masses. What if everyone is wrong?

        2. Sure, Dems get most of the A-list Hollywood endorsements, but what's the party that uses Hollywood stars (Reagan, Schwarzenegger, Trump)

        3. Hollywood stars are stars because they have charisma. That's not an irrelevant skill to have in politics.

        Republicans are desperate for star power. In fact, they're desperate enough to pretend Trump has it.

        The reason why 'the masses' dislike 'Hollywood/Coastal values', is because it often comes at the expense of mocking those masses.

        The go to joke for an ignorant bigot is an ignorant rural bumkin, when there's a ignorant bigot from Queens about to be President.

        elite coastal values... Hollywood is full of more laborers who work with their hands than most other parts of the country.

        Also one of America's biggest manufacturing hubs and maybe the most vital exporter.

        A major component of the problem is the Democrats/Liberals wrote these people off years ago.
