damn…. that landlord shit really did put a strain on them…
In October 2019 Eric Andre endorsed Bernie Sanders for president to which Hannibal publicly commented “too old.” People did not react favorably to this and then it came to light that Hannibal Buress is a landlord and opposed the prospect of rent control. THEN it came to light that he wanted to convert the housing he owned into an AirB&B Hotel (which he discussed in his act as well as at least one podcast but allegedly others) which meant he terminated some of his tenants’ leases early (though he did allegedly offer them monetary compensation for the move). Hannibal can also be seen personally trolling “nobodies” on twitter messaging them privately which may not be super relevant but to me demonstrates how this was very personal to him. Clearly the idea of Bernie getting elected got him really heated. Was it directly connected to his fairly recent accumulation of wealth?? Who can say? But the speculation here implies the moral incompatibility has affected their professional relationship if not their personal one.
Hello. I'm just a Twenty-something nobody who lives in South Carolina and aspires to be in the Film/TV Industry someday, but for now, I'm just reblogging my way through the Tumblr-verse. I consider myself to be a fan of many fandoms (Pokemon, MLP, Doctor Who, etc.), mostly whatever piques my interests these days. I'll mostly be re-blogging stuff (and I may re-blog some NSFW stuff every now and then, just a fair warning). I'll get to posting original stuff in the near future, but I guess that depends on how many followers I get. Now that you know me, enjoy my blog!
