If Gregg Popovich or Alex Bregman endorsed TX Democrats, how would you feel?

Texas is not a state of all conservative people. They are a lot of liberals in Texas. San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich is anti-Trump, and aggressively attacks Trump at press conferences.

Houston Astros player Alex Bregman also criticizes Trump once in a while on Twitter.

If the two endorsed TX Democrats, would that change voters' opinions on candidates?

Do celebrity endorsements matter?

don't care

their life is sports, not politics so their opinion is as valid as the girl at the register at Target

But they are American citizens, they are American taxpayers like everyone else. Isn't it a free country?

Why would a baseball player and basketball coach effect my deeply held political beliefs based on years of experience and study? Are they political scholars? Maybe I’m unaware.

Clearly some people are influenced by celebrity opinions but if the question is directed at me then the answer is that I don't consider being good at a sport to be a deciding factor and whether I value your opinion on politics

I don’t care what other people think about politics unless they can use evidence to justify their opinions ...which eliminates about 98% of the population, celebrity or not.

Cut him some slack. He's a Jew. It's kinda mandatory.

I think Bregman is disappointed and hurt in Trump's Charlottesville response. That hurt him. Also the migrant situation on the border hurt Bregman because a lot of his teammates are Latino.

Wtf man.... why would they matter?
shite like this only matters to Super Stupid Mullet Sheep who are too dense to make their own decisions and follows the herd behind other Super Stupid Mullet Sheep!

Think for yourself man... make your own decisions and assumptions. Ask questions and investigate things for yourself.

It’s people like this who have this country in the shape that it’s in. I don’t give a good got’damn on who is endorsing/voting for who. I vote for who I agree with on Policy,Values and character.

Same damn thing trips me out when you see topics like: “Would you wear this” or “would you drive it” etc. Who gives a shite what anyone one else likes... If you want it/like it.... do yourself a favor and make a decision for once in your life and stop trying to keep up with the Kardashian’s!

Which would have never happened had the Progressive’s not have started their racist bullshite and had they not stroked the ego’s their home grown terrorist organization Antifa and all the other hostile bullshite they encourage.

If Bergman wants to be disappointed in someone, look no further than the Progressive Left! As long as that behavior is tolerated, we will continue to have situations like Charlottesville spiral out of control!

California is not a state of all liberal people. They are a lot of conservatives in California. Rap mogul Kanye West is anti-Hillary, and aggressively attacks liberals at press conferences.

Actors such as James Woods also criticize liberals once in a while on Twitter.

If the two endorsed CA Republicans, would that change voters' opinions on candidates?
