Democrats Want This Actress To Run For Office. Republicans Should Beg Her To Do It.

Sigh. Another Hollywood actress is claiming that Democrats have asked her to run for office.

This time, it’s actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus, the star of Veep. According to the Washington Post, in a lengthy article about the show, “Louis-Dreyfus said she has been approached by top Democrats and asked to run for office. (Not in a million years, she said she told them.)”

In April of 2016, Louis-Dreyfus told The New York Times that it was sexism that kept women like Hillary Clinton, whom she later endorsed, from succeeding, saying, “A stern, decisive man is appealing. There are those who would say a stern, decisive woman is unappealing. Need you know any more than that?”

In January, at the SAG Awards, Louis-Dreyfus railed against President Trump’s executive order regarding immigration, asserting, “”My father fled religious persecution in Nazi-occupied France. I’m an American patriot, and I love this country. Because I love this country, I am horrified by its blemishes, and this immigrant ban is a blemish and it’s un-American.”

Louis-Dreyfus said Veep won’t deal with Trump, offering, “I don’t want to do Trump stuff. We’ve set up this premise for the show that’s an alternative political universe.”

Of Washington, Louis-Dreyfus posited, “It’s still filled with idiots.”
