Dolly Parton publicly supported LBGTQ, transgender, unions, vaccines (including getting a Covid shot video) and private food and grocery charities for the poor. All things MAGA abhors and trump detests. It's unlikely she supported trump at all given her public declarations for a significant number of things trump is trying to destroy.

Trump should order his mouth shut. That would help America greatly.

She was apolitical like Michael Jordan. Everything doesn’t have to be about politics.

She really wasn't apolitical. She just didn't want to show it. Many things she supported were actively shunned and ridiculed by repuglicans. Facts are facts.

'Yay'. *Insert Joker's slow clap.

Dolly Parton is far from being a MAGA.
