Nope, not famous (not even infamous).
Nope, not appropriate for ANY current politician to appear. Is called an 'in-kind' political donation and will always be perceived as supporting that person/party (So yes, it was saying vote for that party). Can also be perceived as strongly suggesting all Star Trek politicians are corrupt.

lol k. Laughable.

There weren't any current politics. It was a famous person that is also a known Trek fan. No one on the show said VOTE DEMOCRAT. My guess is if it was someone like Rand Paul or someone on the far right you'd be fine with it though, right?

Maybe Tom Lister Jr. should have played the part.

Why, b/c Stacey Abrams? Did you expect them to put a Republican in there? They're not stupid. She's also a known Trek superfan which is why she was offered the part at all. Enjoy your manufactured outrage.

the last fifteen minutes... talk about a political statement.... I shut it off . If I could give it a negative star rating I would. Before that wasn't so bad; well they spent as much time dealing with their feelings as they did solving the problem.
