When John Stamos, who was a Joe Biden and Barack Obama supporter at one time, was spotted at a Mar-a-Lago event, not many were pleased.

A critic commented, “Another washed up Hollywood actor.”



 

One tweeted, “John Stamos at Mar-a-Lago? Disappointing. Uncle Jesse would never. Time to cancel Full House reruns, can’t watch without thinking of this betrayal. What’s next, DJ Tanner at a MAGA rally? Gross.”



 

A user said, “Well, he was certainly wrong. Stamos, November 2024: ‘We need a leader who prioritizes unity and strives to bridge the divides that have deepened over the past years.’”



 

“Just did a little research. He was the MC of a charity event called dancing with the Palm Beach stars that was at Mar-A-Lago. quite the slippery slope here for an individual who has, in the past, supported the Democrats,” an individual posted.



 

“I’m confused... he endorsed Kamala,” a user wrote.



 

“Some people are just lame cowards,” a Reddit user commented.

“I just gave up on liking most celebrities at this point, at least in the US sphere. They have to prove to me they are good because so many of them are spineless people with tons of money and parents that got them there,” a comment read.
