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

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

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