Someone else replied: “Now Reba, honey, I love you but today isn’t it.”

Meanwhile, others were more heated, such as one who declared, “Reba, this isn’t the damn time!”

A second exclaimed in disbelief: “really?!?!? right now?” while someone else commented: ‘We’re a little busy at the moment, Reba.’

Over the years, McEntire has avoided endorsing a political candidate, as she reminded fans in 2021.

“Last night, an invitation to a political fundraiser using my name was sent without my knowledge or consent,” she says wrote via X. “I had and have no plans to attend this event and had informed the event organizers as such.”

McEntire added: “Throughout my career I have stated that I do not get involved in politics, and that remains true to this day.”
