Probably no more so than Billy Wilder (the Jew from Vienna who directed him in two of the best movies either of them ever did).

Fred MacMurray was never noted for any particular political beliefs or biases. Publicly he was known only as a husband and father, a notoriously thrifty man (he would bring a brown-bag lunch to the studio when he was the highest-paid actor in Hollywood), and a dependable and amazingly versatile film actor.


Privately, there wasn't much to say. Fred was supposed to be a Republican, but he didn't fundraise or give speeches for anyone. He was a devout and lifelong Catholic, but did not wear religion on his sleeve. In these respects he was a little like Bob Hope, who also tried to keep political and sectarian distractions off the table, and enjoyed an immensely long and popular career.
