'Jeopardy!' champ Ken Jennings wants conservatives to know that nobody in entertainment shares their politics (except maybe Kelsey Grammer)

It’s an election year with an avalanche of different stories going on at once, so the political debate is perhaps as heated as it’s been in a long time. But “Jeopardy” champ Ken Jennings wanted conservatives to know he’s got most of Hollywood and the entertainment industry on his philosophical side:

To all the conservatives who found out today that Tom Morello or Jim Gaffigan don’t share their politics: it’ll be easier to get this done all at once. NOBODY whose work you like shares your politics. You get Kelsey Grammer and that’s it.

There are certainly more non-liberals in Hollywood than Kelsey Grammer, but the actual number may never be known:

Or, none can talk about it in public because they will be dragged and ruined by the intolerant mob. https://t.co/BaHQ6DWrRd

This is definitely the kind of industry in which people who are conservatives would state so openly and not pretend to go with the flow out of the sheer terror of not toeing the line. https://t.co/kiYABpRP77

There are many who aren't vocal because they want to keep working. Also many vocal, e.g. Jon Voight.

I'm sure there are more conservatives but they're likely concerned about being blacklisted. The Left despised McCarthyism in the 40s and 50s but now they practice it.

Bingo! And Larry the Cable Guy also had thoughts on this issue:

It routinely comes as a shock to liberals that conservatives already know the artists we like don't share our politics. It's not some big gotcha. They assume that since they only listen and watch artists that share their politics, that we do the same – and so we must not know. https://t.co/22tU5F0yFO

Literally every knows that most people in the entertainment field are liberals. The fact that Ken thinks that he's teaching us something is the real story here https://t.co/1qvb8IeqoL

Does Ken think he gets to bask in the reflected glory of musicians and comedians simply by sharing their same facile politics? Really?

No, Ken. You're not cool and you will never be cool, especially not when you're doing this deeply grasping shit. https://t.co/dQHQ2j3SEM

Conservatives don't really care about actors' political ideas. We know they're almost all not in line with ours. We watch the movies anyway. Crazy, I know. https://t.co/mdTSp9y7oP

We get James Hetfield too. That’s good enough for me

Wow, just straight up dissing Kid Rock like that. https://t.co/mwO1skti3X

I don't believe any conservatives were surprised that Tom Morello from Rage Against The Machine did not share their politics. https://t.co/g9hjwN5FA8

Is this tool under the impression that American conservatives think celebs share our politics? https://t.co/SmEjJ8w0LM

It’s not exactly “breaking news” to conservatives.
