If there’s one thing you’ll rarely find in Hollywood it’s a conservative or even just a mere Republican for that matter. Aside from maybe Vince Vaughan and Mel Gibson giving a scowling look to Meryl Streep during her Golden Globes speech, most of Hollywood is super liberal and very anti Donald Trump. But there’s still a small group of Republicans and even conservatives out there within the celebrity community. One of them is Tim Allen who stopped by Jimmy Kimmel live Friday night. While Allen hasn’t specifically said that he’s turned on Donald Trump (as studies show many people are doing right now), he did go into some startling specifics about his experiences being a conservative in Hollywood at the present time.
“I was invited, we did a VIP thing for the vets, and went to a veterans ball, so I went to go see Democrats and Republicans,” the Last Man Standing actor said. “Yeah I went to the inauguration.” “I’m not attacking you,” laughed Jimmy Kimmel, after Allen turned defensive. “You’ve gotta be real careful around here,” Allen replied. “You get beat up if don’t believe what everybody believes. This is like ’30s Germany. I don’t know what happened. If you’re not part of the group, ‘You know what we believe is right,’ I go, ‘Well, I might have a problem with that.’ I’m a comedian, I like going on both sides.”
Allen would also go on to talking about people’s privacy in this day and age and how people should be a little more worried.
“If a government drove by with a gray sedan with a camera on it, you’d be rioting and going to Washington,” he explained. “But if it’s white, with emojis and Google on it, ‘Yay,’ you’re waving at it. They’re taking pictures of your house!”
