“No one ever said, ‘Only black lives matter,'” he said. “It’s a cry out for help. We’re saying, ‘Black lives matter, too.’ People are always saying, ‘I’m mad and tired of hearing about this “Black Lives Matter.'” Well, we’re mad that we have to keep saying it.”
Neither of the candidates care enough to do anything to help black people or stop police brutality anyway, so he's right in a sense.
“I encourage everyone to vote,” he continued. “It’s a lot of people who died and fought for the right for us to vote, but me personally I don’t like the pageantry. It’s a popularity contest.”
Sir. You work for America's Got Talent. It's literally a pageantry.
To an extent I get his point bc your daily life is affected most by local government/state government more than federal, however federal policies are just as important. His "do as I say, not as I do" approach is messy but it's Nick Canon, who cares what he thinks. Let's be real.
I bet he's going to be wishing he voted if Trump wins. I understand it's a choice between the lesser of two evils (and it pains me to think that I'll be voting for Hillary against my conscience) but it's about the big picture. The chances are great that she will only be a one-term President so we need to get her in the White House. After, then we can focus on getting someone better and more trustworthy in 2020.

Can't you wait to see what she's going to do during her presidency before talking about what to do in 2020?
Democrats never vote, unless it's a presidential election. When you downplay (effectively discourage) voting for the president, you're contributing to more Republicans being re/elected. Now this is only aimed at public figures who might influence others, at the personal level you may do whatever feels right to you.
