I agree with you there, but was it wrong? Do they not have the right to
endorse a candidate?

Their clout is an item of value that they hold, just like the money that
conservative billionaire's have is an item of value that they hold. If
billionaires can give huge amounts of money, why can't celebrities give
clout (and I suspect lots of money, too). And yet I don't see you questioning
the political acumen of conservative billionaire donors. Why is that? Could
it be that they tend to be conservative while celebrities tend to be liberal?

A realist who isn't out to tell people only what they want to hear. During
WWII there were food rations, and sacrifices had to be made. Was that
president telling people to "expect more!" or was he explaining the need to
"expect less."
