    America has had playboy celebrity politicians since Jefferson.

    And by that I mean politicians who attain celebrity, not the other way round. There’s nothing really “wrong”, per se, with having some celebrity in your politician. It’s when you get politician in your celebrity that we’ve learned bad things happen.

    Celebrity scientists like NdGT and Hawking are considered net positives for STEM, yes?
