  2. They obviously had no idea who he is other than his TV persona. Lol. I

  3. Right wing shitheels are real quick to tell athletes, musicians, and actors to “keep politics out of it” when their views aren’t mirrored, but in the same breath they’ll elevate and worship any celebrity who shares their hateful views.

    It’s always “don’t criticize us, be silent”.

    All Conservatives are scum.

  4. Reacher is not my kind of show at all, but this guy is making it more appealing by the millisecond

  5. Hmm, you know I think I’ll start watching Reacher 👍🏻

  7. What was Blue Mountain State? I didn’t see that. Was that a TV series?

  8. It’s mind blowing how Conservatives have such a hard time realizing that a TV character isn’t actually who that person/actor is in real life.

  9. Yea remember when Top Gun Maverick came out, you had idiots like DeSantis emulating the main character. These right wing fans are a special case of headbaskets.

    Edit: Not a religion fan, but Alan is awesome in Reacher.

  11. Right wing MAGA crowd also probably thinks Reacher wouldn’t hate them.

  12. Oh you mean Alan Ritchson was speaking the truth? Got it.

  13. The entire thing about the character is he’s honest and doesn’t tolerate bullshit. That’s a feature, not a bug. Why would they hate on the actor for being the same thing?

  14. I always think its funny when people find out the theatre kids  arent generally right leaning.

  15. Grrr my fragile masculinity is in conflict!!! What do I do?!

    First Rage Against The Machine and now this?!

  16. Fake Christians,following fake PROFITS(yeah the spelling is correct)!

  17. >Alan Ritchson Describes Trump As A ‘Rapist And A Con-Man’

    That’s more accurate.

  18. Telling it like it is. Takes a big man to be open and honest about the tiny hands orange guy.

  19. As a man, I love watching Reacher for the… ah.. plot. It has nothing to do with the fact that Alan Ritchson is a beefcake. I’m going to watch the plot even harder now.

  20. Alan Ritchson just keeps on getting W’s and hotter by the day

  21. Ha! He’s just tell him the truth, isn’t that what Jesus would want?

  23. Reacher is very smart, and quite empathetic in his own way. He wouldn’t be a trump supporter at all. He would see trump as a parasite, a criminal, a rapist, and a traitor.

  24. Well.. having just watched his new movie last night, The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, I cant wait to see how the right wing handles THAT. Loved the movie… and he is a complete Nazi killing psychopath in this one.

  25. > The Rock refuses to take a stance on anything, meanwhile jack reacher over here is going scorched earth on MAGA crowds, Trump, and the police force. This is what a real tough guy looks like.

    LOL

  26. We need more celebrities and public figures speaking out against Trump and the Republican party.

  27. Easy to see why they are mad.

    Character is a man of action, who lives off the grid, strong sense of justice, isn’t part of any establishment, and has attractive women dragging him into bed.

    In their minds the character, and thus the actor, represents their idealized self. The heroic personification of their fantasies that are just one armed ‘resistance’ away from being sovereign citizens.

    Actor then crushes their dreams by speaking out against their false prophet.

  28. Reacher would fucking HATE trump. These folks have clearly never picked up a book. James Reese would jerk him off in the bathroom though, they should stick to The Terminal List.

  29. He is correct, his value just went to the moon imo.

  30. This may blow some people’s minds but I went High School in Niceville, Florida and while I was there Matt Gaetz was in the class behind me and Alan was a Freshman (possibly a sophomore, I don’t remember). Alan’s brother was in my grade and friend group. Alan was a very kind kid even then. Matt Gaetz has always been a tool.

  31. Will likely check out Reacher. Thank you Alan for your courage

  36. More celebrities need to follow this man’s lead and not be scared to do so.

  37. Right-Wingers are always flipping out. They’re in perpetual-anger mode. It’s not news or interesting anymore.
