Kelsey Grammer sounded curt this morning when he brusquely told a BBC Today program interviewer that he still supports Donald Trump but, according to his interviewer, this curtness doesn’t tell the full story.

Grammer’s interviewer Justin Webb said the Frasier star was “perfectly happy” to go on talking about his support for the former POTUS, “the Paramount+ PR team, less so.”

Grammer has previously expressed support for Trump – a relatively rare position for a TV and movie star to take – and he also used his BBC interview to back Roseanne Barr, another self-confessed Trump supporter.

    He is a piece of shit who has condoned a LOT of hate, but is also “a product of his time” as it were.

    We’re still in his time. I don’t think we should excuse people by saying they’re a product of their time until they’ve been dead for a while.

      Its not excusing so much as acknowledging the different tiers of asshattery.

      If you want to go full zero tolerance: more power to you. But you also are going to more or less have nothing to watch
