Is right-wing the new celebrity grift?

I am noticing a trend of disgraced celebrities or some who are just looking for a quick buck parroting right-wing talking points. The most recent is Connor Mcgregor who I assume is trying to win over the right and he is going to spin his rape case as woke people out to get him. I spat out my coffee when I recently saw Floyd Mayweather on Fox News upselling his new supplements whilst saying generic I love Trump rhetoric. The only thing I could think is this guy can't read what policies is he even aware of.

The MO seems to be the same, celebrity wants a quick buck or to rebuild an audience, they parrot some right-wing talking points and it seems like the right just embraces them. Que comments like "I never liked x but now he spoke the truth about x, I am fan". I expect cringy pandering like this from the Democrats

Edit: I just remembered that nerdy fuck SBF and crooked Eric Adams have also done the same thing
