Hollywood Celebrities Mostly Ignore Biden, Use State of the Union to Attack GOP

President Joe Biden’s state of the union address on Tuesday was so unremarkable that even the Hollywood celebrities who campaigned for him had little to say. So they spent the hour attacking and snarking at Republicans instead, with one star even calling for physical violence against a sitting member of Congress.
Stars including Mark Ruffalo, Bradley Whitford, Rosanna Arquette, and Oscars co-host Wanda Sykes stoked hatred toward the GOP while completely ignoring the president. Some even brought up former President Donald Trump, who was not mentioned once during the televised address.
Disney’s The Avengers star Mark Ruffalo lashed out at Republicans while bringing up former President Trump. The actor mocked GOP politicians for participating in the evening’s ceremonial standing ovations.
Trump, Tucker, MTG, underage sex trafficker Matt Gaetz & the rest of the KKKaucus of the Republican Party that have been sucking up to Putin have forced the GOP to do 5 standing ovations for President Biden in his state of the Union. Hubris is a beautiful thing. #FPutin

Disney’s Frozen star Josh Gad did the opposite — berating Republicans for not standing and clapping enough
I can’t imagine being so partisan and broken so as to sit sit silently for a proposal to fix lead pipes.

At a time when Democracy is being tested in America and throughout the world, I’m so grateful to have an intelligent, compassionate, experienced President at the helm. So grateful for Joe Biden.
