Hollywood’s Most Powerful Women Pick Their Dream 2020 Presidential Candidate. Yep, All Leftists.

Hollywood's most powerful women have weighed in on who they want as a presidential candidate in 2020. From presidents of major production companies to top talent agents, the answers are all the same: left-of-center virtue-signalers, which only serves to indicate that when Hollywood drones on about diversity, they don't mean diversity of intellectual thought.
For the annual Women in Entertainment Power 100, the Hollywood Reporter probed dozens of top-ranking Hollywood women as to whom they would like to see run for the top office in 2020. Absolutely none said President Trump or a Republican in general. Some gave cryptic answers like "two qualified adults" or "I'm afraid to jinx it," but the answers were nevertheless the same.
"Predictably, Oprah ranked as a favorite among the industry insiders, as presidential buzz has engulfed the mogul and star ever since her memorable 2017 Golden Globes speech," said THR. "Other top mentions lean Democratic, including Texan superstar Beto O'Rourke and California's own Kamala Harris."
Former Vice President Joe Biden got a few mentions. Others gave ridiculous answers like celebrity power couple Chrissy Teigen and John Legend. One also called for an Oprah and Ellen ticket.
Another mention was producer Kathleen Kennedy, the executive who arguably transformed the "Star Wars" universe into a woke vehicle of female empowerment. Here are all the direct quotes provided by THR:
