Of course you're right, but America can't seem to tell the difference between a Donald Trump celebrity and Cynthia Nixon type celebrity. That's an indictment of many voters who tend to be obsessed with the wrong kind of celebrity. There are a lot of people in the country who think The Rock would be a good president....The Rock, for f*cks sake! I rest my case.

D LG Objectively speaking, Trump being a celebrity is very, very low on the list of reasons why he is unfit to be president. It is true that large swathes of voters were fooled by his billionaire boss image on The Apprentice, but it's not his fame that makes him a bad president. It's his lack of intellectual curiosity, his narcissism, his racism, his misogyny, his deep, unquenchable thirst for praise and approval no matter where it might come from, a hundred other reasons. I feel like celebrities running for public office (just like regular politicians) do need to prove their mettle and substance, something which Cynthia Nixon is doing and Donald Trump did not.
@dlg5485 6 жыл бұрын
+Jedd Sure, many celebrities aren't just celebrities, but we're talking specifically about entertainment figures here, who may or may not have other prominent qualities. Of course, Trump's celebrity, in itself, isn't necessarily the problem with him. However, his 'big boss' celebrity persona on The Apprentice *is* the thing that many of his supporters were drawn to. So while I agree that celebrity, in itself, isn't the core problem, the tendency of people to gravitate to vapid celebrities is a major problem.

@beatrizmoreno9205 6 жыл бұрын
The ChillyWinds It has less to do with progressives and more to do with politics as a whole. Politics is Stephen's field of expertise. If someone is serious about it, he's going to challenge that conviction and let them (politicians/people running) know they're being held accountable. He's grilled plenty of Republican's as well. He doesn't grill people he doesn't take seriously (politically), for example, he didn't grill Trump when he was on during the elections because a) he didn't really consider his political knowledge to be that vast and b) nobody really thought he could win. The questions were hard here because Stephen decided to take Cynthia seriously based on her initial answers. His questions and her answers gave leeway for people to take her seriously as well.

Stephen isn't hostile in this interview, as some people seem to think. He's asking the questions DOUBTERS would ask because he knows Cynthia has good answers for them, which helps convincing doubters that maybe she IS the right person for the job - and it worked for me. I clicked on this video like, meh, maybe it will at least be funny, but now I'm absolutely in favor of her becoming the governor of New York - but I'm just some dude from Germany anyway, so it doesn't really matter. Point is, he asked the right questions in the right manner because he knew she had the right answers. That "two Emmys" thing was just him playing, and maybe testing her a little.

And my Axe! And my vote. She's legit. It's nice in NY to get to vote for a real progressive! She has an amazing platform which he didn't totally get to but he did very well playing advocate. Nixon's entry made Cuoma disband the DCCC which is the Republicans in the Democratic party allowing all sorts of terrible votes where Dems stab their brothers and just use the donor funds to pay for the elections and nothing comes of it. If a Dem wants to be a GOP guy, do it, don't be a Dem and then vote GOP all the time. NY is a great spot to start Universal Health Care. It's been brought up and tabled many times, that's one of her platforms. She's legit, people. Cuomo is a billionaire or at least 750M and he is as milk toast as they come. He stopped fracking I'll give him that. Cuomo is good with the status quo, doesn't hate gays and is okay with women's right to choose, but he's not move a whole lot to protect other groups and predict a future incursion as can happen anytime. Okay lecture over. I'm voting for her though and I'm very proud to do so!

I've always found her annoying as hell as an actress, but she has the right answer for all of those questions. If you can't have a left-wing Democrat in NEW YORK, then something is wrong.

@dambar7486 6 жыл бұрын
That's way too generous to Cuomo in that it implies that he is a right wing democrat. The way he agreed to the Republican gerrymandering plus the dishonest game with the Independent Democrat Conference that has kept the senate in Republican hands shows him as, at heart, a Republican and not even one of the honest ones.

Kunzang Dordže, she got invited just because she has name recognition and very probably she called in some favours in the showbiz to get on the show. That's why it is so important she's decided to run as a progressive. Unfortunately normal people, however great they may be, have no access to mainstream media.

Love Cynthia! Been following her campaign since she announced and, even though I'm not a NY resident, I'm supporting her financially and others should too. We need to send a clear message to the corrupt political establishment in Nov. Too many voters don't realize how difficult it is to run an effective campaign when you don't take corporate cash, while your opponent is receiving gobs of it. It's nearly impossible for progressives to win without ongoing individual contributions from voters, so please support Cynthia and the many other grassroots progressive candidates all around the country, so the 'real left' can finally have a chance to lead!

Never a fan of her as an actress but I think she is right about celebrities in politics. There is synergy there in terms of it giving you a bump to your notoriety. But you do have to actually be passionate about governing and have some conviction in your goals and know your stuff to actually do the job. And to be fair to her, at least vocally, she does seem to display that. Way more than another celebrity politician that comes to mind.

I love that he’s asking some tough questions (that her opposition has probably been serving her frequently) and really letting her hit back. Her answers are so direct and no-bullshit and frankly that’s really refreshing these days. No sugarcoating, no tiptoeing around the question, just a professional, strong back-and-forth interview!
