Trump doesn’t say anything about Hollywood elites until they attack him first. It is Hollywood that views Trump as the enemy not vice-versa. If they stay out of the way - Trump doesn’t seem to care what they do or say as long as it is not about him.

Hollywood elites can pay more taxes now. Nothing is stopping them. Just send it in and we can use it to build the wall.

[[Added another one to the ban list.]]

There is so many of them I stopped keeping a list.
I cut the cable and stopped going to the movies once they started shoving their opinions down our throats.

The reason they at least say they want to pay more in taxes is to fund things abhorrent to me. I am at the point where I’m tired of defending corporations against excessive taxation, because those same corporations turn around and use their wealth to promote anti-American, anti-Christian idiocy like trannies in bathrooms. But, we don’t defend low taxes because we love the rich and corporations, but because we understand that is the only way to encourage job creation and a path to success for average Americans.

I’m also quite tired of people wanting to pay all of these taxes and not one person, Democrat or Republican, saying it’s time to take an audit of where this money goes. If you could get rid of the idiotic waste and corruption, then we might be left with things we’d want funded. Nobody at all wants to even try.

Willing to pay more? BS. Why are film/TV companies always looking for tax breaks?

Should I know this guy? Should I care?

I don’t see him on my list of conservative “Deplorables” - Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan vets, military veterans, law enforcement officers and sane writers.

Well then, he’s not invited to our gatherings. I only have friends who are relevant to America’s safety and honest journalism.

Ricky Gervais is scum that can’t make it through a movie with attacking Christianity and Jesus.

The Officer??? Geez, it’s ‘The Office.’ It was a pretty freaking well known show. Do these “journalists” proofread their work at all?

Ricky Gervais is, and always has been, a jackass. There is no hope for him; he is brain dead. It is a wonder he was able to come up with ‘The Office,’ which was, in my opinion, a terrific comedy.

I couldn’t stand that pompous asshole before, and this doesn’t help any. I don’t think it’s actually possible for me to like him any less than I did before.

‘Hollywood Liberal Elites Are Not the Enemy’

Well, not all of them. But, in truth, most of them are the dimwitted pawns of the enemy. They just aren't smart enough to realize it. But that's okay, because we pay them to be entertaining, not intelligent.

If other folks aren’t being forced to “give” more it isn’t progressivism.

Yup, if you ever see the “volunteered to pay higher taxes” argument, you know you’re reading/listening to either an idiot or a liar.

If they wanted to pay more, they’d whip out the checkbook.

But none of those people plan to pay those higher taxes because they make their money in ways that wouldn’t be subject to those taxes.

They’re volunteering for YOU to pay higher taxes, and for them to get to continue the wide variety of financial scams that they engage in on completely different terms.

Hey Ricky. Then couldn’t we also say that the Russkis “hacking” Clintoon’s coronation was also “art”?

They don’t want to try to see where it goes cause they all have their hand in the cookie jar. Time to smack the hands.

Hollywood has convinced us we are the enemy.

I know plenty of people in Hollywood who think I am an enemy....until they hear me out....then they have to hit the pause button....

I have beem screamed at, told I believe all sorts of horrible things I don’t believe, etc.

When they stop long enough to listen, they often say they learned something, which is fine.

I am only here to inspire, influence and illuminate.

Hollyweird donors can easily fund causes like Corporation for Public Broadcasting or Planned Abortionhood. But they scream like stuck pigs if anyone dares to suggest stopping taxpayer funding of those things.
