    [Dionne] Warwick was the first to respond on X, denying she was going and calling the PAC’s announcement “absolutely ridiculous.”

    Soon afterward, Martin Sheen, who played the president on the TV series “The West Wing,” took to Instagram.

    “I do not endorse RFK Jr. nor will I be attending his party,” Sheen said. He added that he’s “whole heartedly supporting Joe Biden and the Democratic ticket in 2024.”

    Cripes so they just said a bunch of people who definitely weren’t coming were coming and now that they’re not we’re taking our ball and going home? Classy.

      Why does this sound like a cheesy teen movie? The kind where the protagonist tries to throw a party and claims some celebrity will be there. Then, when everyone decides to come, the protagonist has to attempt to get the celebrity to actually appear.

      Only in the cheesy teen movie, the celebrity would make a surprise appearance at the end. In RFK Jr’s version, all the celebrities laugh in his face and he’s left sad and alone.

    Since Sheen doesn’t have an X account, Bradley Whitford, who played the White House deputy chief of staff on the TV show, tweeted on Sheen’s behalf.

    I don’t get why this guy would think that President Josiah Bartlett would show up for him.

    However to be rejected by Charlie Sheen’s dad has to burn.

    Thank god Martin Sheen isn’t a right wing lunatic. There seems to be precious few these days it seems.
