So Bradley Cooper attended the Democratic National Convention on Wednesday night.
This really should not have been a noteworthy occurrence, considering the vast number of celebrities who vote Liberal and who are supporting Hillary Clinton this year.
But… see… Cooper portrayed Chris Kyle in the 2014 movie American Sniper, a war hero who is held in very high estimation by many Republicans.
As a result, Twitter users on the Right took Cooper’s DNC attendance as a major slap in the face, seeming to somehow believe that he is Chris Kyle and that he committed an act of treason against the party.
(And here we were this entire time, thinking Cooper was really a space raccoon.)
This confusing led to some harsh words from Republicans on social media, followed by some mocking words from Democrats in response. It was beautiful.
See what we mean below:
Meryl Streep Actually Spoke at the Convention…
… but she never played a famous Republican, we guess. So she’s spared this wrath.
Disappointed AND Appalled!
Just a mixture of emotions, really. All of them bad.
You’re All Sheep!
And Cooper is the sheep-iest of them all!
EWWWW!
And may I also add: ick.
Stupid Celebrity’s
Also, stupid spelling and grammar. Who needs those things when Bradley Cooper is betraying his country?!?
The Democrats Respond
First, with Crying Michael Jordan, of course.
Wait… What?!?
Did y’all really think Cooper actually was Kyle?!?
Oh, God
Not Morgan Freeman, too! What can we believe anymore? Is nothing sacred?
Rocky Didn’t Really End the Cold War, Either
It’s time for some #RealTalk, Republicans.
Hey, That Was Our Joke!
But we still laughed.
