This is no different than Newark NJ voting to demand that New York City tear down Trump Tower in Manhattan. Means less than nothing but the media of course is treating this as a major blow against the President.

West Hollywood Mayor Pro Tem John D’Amico and Councilwoman Lindsey Horvath issued a resolution urging LA
and the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce to remove Trump's Walk of Fame star
: “.....due to his actions that do not
meet the shared values of the City of West Hollywood......."

The shocker here is an admission that Hollywood has "values." Who knew?

So the celebs who endorsed Bill Clintons' treatment of women also get voted off? Right?

According to FEC Info, an Internet Web site (www.tray.com) that tracks federal political contributions, 176 individual donors actually contributed $10,000 or more to the lewinsky-era Clinton Legal Expense Trust fund through Dec 1999. Another 21 donors gave $10,000 in the first six months of 2000.

Thanks to Hollywood's generosity, a total of more than $2.2 million was raised in six months, which was notably more than was collected in funding during the previous four years of his presidency—combined. Hollywood producers and stars made up the bulk of the most generous givers. They included:

<><> Harvey Weinstein

<><> Universal Studios tycoon Lew Wasserman and his wife, Edith, who have given $60,000;

<><>DreamWorks trio Steven Spielberg, David Geffen and Jeffrey Katzenberg, $20,000 each;

<><> producer Ron Burkle and his wife, Janet, $40,000;

<><> producers Peg and Bud Yorkin, $30,000;

<><> TV producer Norman Lear, $20,000.

Entertainment celebrities and executives giving $10,000 included:

<><> singers Tony Bennett and Barbra Streisand;

<><> actors Michael Douglas and Tom Hanks;

<><> director Ron Howard; producer Gail Zappa;

<><>Black Entertainment Television founder Robert L. Johnson.

Bill Cosby has one. So does Roman Polanski. And the list is long of such examples I’m sure.

We demand to know why ex-US Sen Chris Dodd, a Democrat, who was in a position to do so, as the
Motion Picture Association of America’s chairman/CEO, did nothing about Weinstein’s ongoing atrocities against women.
Dodd recently exited the MPAA post. Charles H. Rivkin, is current Chairman & Chief Executive Officer.

The MPAA is the voice of the global film and TV industry, a community of storytellers at the nexus of innovation, imagination, and creativity.
In the US (and around the globe), the film and TV industry drives the creative US economy.

MPAA members are: Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures, Paramount Pictures Corporation, Sony Pictures Entertainment Inc.,
Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation, Universal City Studios LLC, and Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc.

Yet many stars are for crude, vulgar liberal actors and comedians who constantly spew right-wing hatred. Like Rosie O’Dumbell and Whoopme Goldberg.

Conservatives need not apply.

Let it go, Donald. It’s Hollywood.

Meanwhile in the real world...

President Trump is rescuing civilization, freeing slaves and destroying tyranny worldwide.

The walk of fame is not in West Hollywood but in Hollywood, which is part of the city of Los Angeles. West Hollywood is a separate city.

I once lived on the Sunset Strip, about a block from the West Hollywood line. When I told people where I lived, I always made it clear that I lived in Hollywood, and most certainly not West Hollywood.

We saw this type of stuff in Germany, The Soviet Union and Italy starting a hundred years ago.

It’s idiotic salve for the hole in their heads, where there ought to be a brain for reasoning.

No star can be removed, as the Hollywood Walk of Fame is a National Landmark something or other.....

"Didn’t the city say at one time that they would never remove a star?"

Libs have unlimited power to change whatever rule they want, whenever they want, to get the end result that they desire.

Yes, they did say they would NEVER remove a star. It was hard to find it but I found it.

I didn’t know Chris Dodd was the head of that! For all we know, he may have helped Weinstein in the “kitchen,” making ‘sandwiches.’
