Sorry but he really doesnt. How is him saying people shouldnt vote because they arent informed any different than when someone on the Left says "voters are stupid" or that they have to get out and vote? Its the same thing dressed up a different way. I agree people should be informed, and should do everything they can to know who and what they are voting for...but if they choose not to be and still want to vote that is their business and their right. (as it is our right to mock them) He is no more right to encourage them to stay home than the Hollywood types are to tell them to vote. Why is his opinion any more relevant than theirs? Either both are right (which goes against his thesis) or both are wrong. (which also goes against his thesis) Interesting though that he is saying the uninformed/uneducated are the problem (they are the reason we have these two according to him) yet in August he took issue with the fact that the media seemed to always point out that the average Drumpf voter is uneducated. So the media says it and he gets offended, but you say it and OH MAN HE TOTALLY GETS IT!
I like Mike Rowe and agree with him often, but he wouldnt be saying any of this if one of the lesser clowns (who were not really that much better hence why they lost to this loser) was up instead of Drumpf. He is now acting as a voice of a phenomena that is sweeping through the Right side of the aisle...it is the next logical step after the false equivocation. Now instead of "Vote for Drumpf Cause He and Clinton Arent That Different" it has morphed into "Dont Vote For Anyone Because They Both Suck And We Are Screwed!". All those people I saw on FB and Twitter backing Drumpf have been forced to admit they had it totally wrong...but instead of just taking their medicine they want to go Scorched Earth and burn the whole thing to the ground instead of just sucking it up. This is not some moral stand...some philosophical struggle within...this is them backing the wrong horse, the horse crapping all over them and instead of cleaning up they would rather wipe the crap all over the house because they have to ruin it for everyone. They are like the Bernie or Bust losers...only instead of a minority it is the 14 million nimrods dumb enough to fall for his crap.
Vote, dont vote...whatever. But lets not pretend any celebrity "gets it" just because they pretend to have a crisis of faith. The Liberal Left of Hollywood has an agenda and so does Mike Rowe and neither is pure. To sugeest or imply otherwise (which both sides do and you are doing now by saying he "gets it") is disingenuous. He doesnt "get it" more than Deniro does, or Jon Voight, or me or you.
