Candace Cameron Bure follows a wide range of people on social media.
She was forced to explain why after fans called on her for following polarizing figures like former President Donald Trump and former First Lady Melania Trump.
The 44-year-old “Fuller House” actress explained why she likes to follow people who have different points of view, experiences and perspectives.
“I read a lot of comments from people and I think there are a lot of new followers, so thanks if you’re still out there for following me here,” said Bure in his Instagram stories.

She said that people seemed “disappointed” with who she was following and “it’s always strange for me because I follow a very wide range of people – politically, within my work industry and then with personal friends and things I like”.

Bure also follows President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, conservative commentator Candace Owens and many other Hollywood actors and actresses.
“Following does not mean endorsement,” he said. “Following doesn’t mean I agree with everything they say and do. It just means that I follow a wide range of people to get a perspective. I want to know what’s going on in the world, I want to hear different sides of the argument. I follow people in entertainment with which I do not necessarily agree or act in the same way, but I want to hear what our society, what culture is offering. “

Bure said that following several people on the right and left “no” makes his blood boil
“I don’t get angry about it. So maybe it’s healthy for some of you not to follow people you disagree with. But it doesn’t bother me – it just gives me perspective,” she explained.
Bure previously told Fox News that she is no longer interested in talking publicly about politics after spending nearly a year co-hosting “The View” from 2015 to 2016.

“I don’t want to talk publicly about politics,” she said. “Not because I don’t believe my views and opinions are important, but I prefer to share Jesus with people. This is really my passion.”

She continued: “I don’t want to enter the political debate because it is just about division and separation. And I want to learn. I want to be [part of] a conversation about how to build a bridge. “
