Patricia Heaton was asked to respond to this statement while she was commenting about the Oscars:

.@PatriciaHeaton Your party's frontrunner is a reality tv star who has no place in the White House. And mocked the Pope. Your comment (sigh)

The “Everybody Loves Raymond” and “The Middle” actress put the cards on the table:

If he's the nominee then it won't be my party…#Pinestraw2016 https://t.co/umuMTOJhW8

Heaton’s comment somewhat echoed the sentiment of Sen. Ben Sasse, and many agreed:

@PatriciaHeaton @bijancbayne welcome to #NeverTrump, Patricia. We already love you here.

@PatriciaHeaton I am a Republican who feels the same way. #NeverTrump

Others don’t believe that would be the right thing to do:

@PatriciaHeaton Trump may not be perfect, but look at the imperfections of all the others.

@PatriciaHeaton @bijancbayne He's not my choice either but Clinton is 4 more if Obama + SCOTUS

Heaton’s “#Pinestraw2016” hashtag is a reference to this:

Now that Pinestraw is our man, we just need to get Shepard Fairey @OBEYGIANT to design the poster. #Pinestraw2016 pic.twitter.com/Oc0RoNysiy
