President Trump and first lady Melania Trump attended the College Football National Championship game on Monday where they were given an extremely warm welcome, with the crowd loudly cheering and breaking out in “USA” chants.
“This is America,” the GOP’s Rapid Response Director Steve Guest reminded on Twitter.
The crowd went absolutely wild for @realDonaldTrump

Leftists, however, were too preoccupied, it seems, with shaming those who appeared to have a friendly conversation with POTUS.
How dare Vince Vaughn.

Burke was skewered on Twitter for his response.
You've successfully proven that Vince Vaughn is a Republican, that thing he has taken no effort to hide https://t.co/uvfthyZD6T

Man, I just can't believe how bold some of these Hollywood people are becoming, first Ricky, and now Vince.

If this keeps up people might realize that they live in a free country, and it's ok to have different opinions than the ones shouted at you on TV.
If you think this makes you feel sad, I can't imagine how you're going to feel on November 3, 2020...

As many pointed out already, Vaughn's political leanings have been no secret. He's been talking about what shapes his conservative ideology for years.
“I think that ... as you get older, you just get less trust in the government running anything. And that you start to realize when you really go back and look at the Constitution and the principles of liberty, the real purpose of government is to protect the individual’s right to sort of think and pursue what they have interest in," he told Adam Carolla in a 2013 interview. "And that when you start drawing the lines, saying, as a society, we think this is inappropriate, we’re going to pass laws to protect them from themselves and or take things away to protect themselves or move money from here to there, that you realize that you wake up with corruption and without the unintended consequences you’ll wake up with a lot of problems that didn’t exist prior.”
