Why is Hollywood so obsessed with Trump?
December 8, 2017 | EdnaMode

Prior to Trump being elected, most celebrities rarely tweeted about politics. If they did, it was usually the occasional tweet about climate change. Their twitter feeds were usually filled with behind-the-scenes photos and updates, project news and promotion and humorous banter.

Occasionally, I check out the twitter feeds of actors that I used to follow before Trump was elected. Actors who regularly interacted with fans and used to share funny stories about their lives have become cold and distant. Many no longer reply to fans, and some barely promote their own projects anymore. Some celebrity twitter feeds are nearly 100% anti-Trump tweets.

What has President Trump done that has hurt these people so much? Gay marriage is still legal, as is abortion. Many of these people are multimillionaires and live the life of privilege. Trump literally hasn't affected their lives in any way. Yet they seem completely unhinged and miserable since November 8, 2016. Why are celebrities like Chelsea Handler, Rosie O'Donnell and others so miserable since Trump was elected? What has he done to hurt them?

When Obama was elected, conservatives accepted his victories and moved on with their lives. So why are actors, who aren't adversely affected by Trump so miserable?

My guesses: 1. They're really not upset. Trump bashing is the new casting couch.

2. They're narcissists. Supporting the losing candidate was a blow to their jumbo sized egos.

3. Someone is telling them to bash Trump (studio executives, producers, publicists, agents).

4. They feel betrayed that he switched parties.

This woman was the one who let them all do as they wanted.

She got everything lined so that they could do what they wanted with impunity.

When she lost they no longer had their golden ticket.

Praise God.

Trump is a superstar. He walks into a room and he owns that room. Even if the biggest movie stars happen to be in it at the same time. He renders them very small and insignificant. This is why Hollywood hates Donald Trump. Trump has 100x the star power of all the Hollywood stars combined.

The twitter feeds have nearly identical language against Trump. Twitter bots insert them. I suspect that the celeb is either unaware or agrees with the content or their feed is automated or they are afraid to take it down.
Fake “likes” & fake account.

Look up some celeb names at google and add twitter after their name.

Because tens of millions of Americans like Trump more than they like the Hollywierd.

Hatred is elemental. It falls on the hated to be forgiving.

Because the are Virtue Signaling, infantile minds, bent on show how much better they are than the Commoners that voted for Trump.

Though it's not Hollywood, it seems South Park may have gone full-on "Never-Trump," which saddens me. I haven't seen Wednesday night's episode yet (I'll watch it this weekend,) but the previous episode had President Trump launching nukes at Canada.

And older episode was hilarious, and had Trump doing a "Why don't you and him fight" with Kim Jung Il & Tweak! And Tweak was completely freaking out, every time KJI would threaten to nuke Tweak's house.

If Matt & Trey have sold out, I'll be disappointed.

He’s a self-made super star and they think they are the ones who “create” stars....
