That is exactly what you are doing.

And who said anything about crazy?

His own son has stated that he rarely hears from his father and it was his mother Meg that raised him.

I have no idea why you'd think me either knowledgeable or interested enough in Dennis Quaid to "challenge" another's statements about him.
Posters on the thread were describing him in words approximating "crazy", i.e. "looney", etc. and, as stated, I was simply curious.

And that's why she started dating the really cool left wing John Mellencamp.

When she began divorce proceedings. Not saying she left Quaid for Crowe. Only that Mellencamp wasn't why she left. In fact, it would be another 10 years before she and Mellencamp hooked up.

with fellow right-wing nut Jon Voight. Watch the trailer if you’d like a good laugh, but make sure you have a strong stomach first.

He's been politically toxic since the 1980s, when he was a Reagan supporter. He didn't advertise it...but it wasn't much of a secret to anyone involved in the LA political scene.

Lots of "Yes, he's an asshole, but he's my asshole! I'm for Trump!" horseshit.

You will be surprised how many famous MAGAs are there. Many of our favorite NFL stars are. Was shocked Doug Flutie was against our favorite senator from Georgia.

When he was filming Everybody's All American he and John Goodman (who was also in the movie) both frequented the bar that I worked at in NOLA. John would come in with his girlfriend in the early evening, get a pitcher of beer and sit and drink peacefully. He always left a nice tip. He was extremely pleasant and kind.

Dennis Quaid would come in late at night and start fights. He was rude to us bartenders and all of the rest of our staff. We dreaded seeing him show up. I bet we threw him out of the bar at least five times.

He played Ray-Gun in a movie and claimed himself to be an admirer on more than one occasion.
Geez, he talked glowingly of Reagan in an episode of Pawn Stars!
Didn't know he was a pyscho conservative though.
