He’s a raging Trumper.
Is he really? That’s disappointing but not surprising
Yes. He even moved his family out of LA, to like AZ or somewhere super republican.
Wow. He always paints his wife as super liberal or very free spirited

She lost me as a fan when she was willing to profit being in a series by Amy Schumer, but wouldn't defend Amy against antisemitism when people came on her IG to complain she associated with a Jew who cares about Israel. Her husband is a religious rapper so I assumed they would be decent enough to step up and set a boundary against hate on social media. It was gross. She will profit from a Jew, but won't defend one. No thank you.
I have not followed this controversy as it relates to Anjelah Johnson but appreciate your highlighting absences of allyship and #JewsDontCount issues.
That said, "She will profit from a Jew, but won't defend one" describes most of the public-facing "talent" in the entertainment industry at the moment.

Not OP but usually someone who doesn’t use profanity or any really racy sexual jokes. Of the different comedy channels on Sirius, the one that used to be called Laugh USA is now called Pure Comedy (I assume to accentuate that distinction) and features standup from a bunch of those listed here, including Gaffigan, Bargatze (who I’ve seen live, he’s hilarious) Bob Newhart and Steven Wright.
