Just more proof that the “tolerant liberals” are neither, despite their howls for tolerance by others....Jennifer just stained herself and will likely lose more revenue than if all the homosexual community had boycotted her works - she alienated a LOT more sane folks....

Why the notion that Trump is anti-gay?? Very good question.

Probably because liberals have limited thinking and reasoning abilities. So when they came up with memes such as “Trump is Hitler” and “Trump is racist”, they extend his alleged hatred to people liberals hold near and dear, such as the homosexual community.

“She must have received too many death threats. “

No. They just told her luck in the future getting any contracts or airtime.

I think it’s mostly leftist groupthink. They can’t think for themselves.

63,000,000 people voted for Trump. If their dollars were not given to movie companies, cable companies and record companies I think a message would be loudly received.

Or perhaps not. The bigotry and hatred of the left runs deep, and the “entertainment” wing of their national socialist party may be content to survive on the rest of the nation’s dollars.

Where is Jennifer Hudson? Maybe she should offer a song
Not that that rasist bigot misogynist trump would expect anything for his support when she needed it

Does the lgbqt remember when this homophobe Trump befriended Michael Jackson, flew him to Ryan Whites funeral, paid for AIDS victim Ryan whites medical treatment?

Cut money to the arts, give to local orchestras and some to museums.

I will never spend another dime in any of these “celebrities”. No more movies, theater, music of any kind. Some of these people are stars today we spent the money.
