The video prompted a netizen to take to the comments section with an unwelcome opinion on Cohen’s political activism.

“I’m impressed with this post Andy, it’s gracious and I’m glad we agree we all love our country. But the celebs all endorsing her was not the flex you think it was,” the troll wrote.

“Americans are tired of the liberal extremism,” the Instagram user continued. “I hope we can all move on together and find some unity somewhere. It’s exhausting being this divided.”

“As a gay American dad who had kids through IVF, the Supreme Court is on the ballot and I don’t want it filled with (more) right wing extremists who will take away my rights,” he continued. “I believe in sensible gun control. I believe in building the middle class, and raising the minimum wage.”
