    Serious question - what are his politics?

    He strikes me as a guy who just likes to work and probably didn't even think about the politics.

    That might be it. But you never know.

    Ninja edit. Maybe I need to stop hate watching pundits. I sounded like one. Could be. Or maybe not.

    I mean he's been doing it for literally 50 years and pretty much always in supporting roles (Wise Blood, notable exception!) so he must have worked for all manner of odious types at this point. Just another day at the office.

    I have no idea, I'm just shocked because he's like a prolific actor in some really fucking good movies and shows. I would have thought he would be way too busy or out of Daily Wire's budget even now.
