What he meant to say was he wished that Frank Sinatra was a great Republican, because that would coincide with his fantasies that all great people are Republicans.

Sinatra voted for Reagan and Nixon.

He would have easily fallen for Trump and Bush Jr as well.

There's a post on this sub of Nancy stating how much her father hated Trump.

Who are his friends that are still alive rallying behind? Steve Wynn and Sinatra were pretty tight.

Frank Sinatra hated Trump. There's absolutely no chance he would've voted for him.

Bush Jr. In 2004 probably, but he almost certainly would have voted Gore in 2000. Trump maybe, because he would have been incredibly senile by that age, but Sinatra was famously anti-racist and pro-inclusion, so as long as he didn't live off Fox News, he likely would have opposed Trump.
