Why Hillary Clinton supporter Chris Colfer won’t go after Donald Trump on Twitter
You won’t see Chris Colfer taking to Twitter to badmouth Donald Trump.
The former Glee star, who has a role as a hairdresser in Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie, supports Democrat Hillary Clinton but has so far stayed clear of any Twitter wars.
‘If I’m gonna have a voice politically, I want it to be positivity for Hillary,’ he tells SiriusXM Progress. ‘I don’t want it to be negativity for Donald Trump. Because I feel like people get trapped in that.
‘As soon as you say something negative about Trump that’s all that people post, that’s all that people write. Because he’s a click hole.’
Colfer, 26, was raised in a Republican household in which he secretly admired then First Lady Hillary Clinton.
‘All of my family were Republican — they’re still Republican,’ he explains. ‘Our dinner table arguments should be filmed, because they’re so hysterical.
‘She was constantly on the news for being ambitious. I remember even as a kid people were labeling her as, “How dare this first lady be ambitious?” like it was a negative quality. And I remember seeing how many times she was publicly told, “No, you can’t do that. No, no, no.” And she always said, “Yes, and…Yes.” I remember as a kid secretly looking up to her. I think she’s quite extraordinary.’

Good article. Chris and I are from the same alma mater and sadly from the same GOP hometown.
