Former 'Silicon Valley' Actor Claims Trump Resistance Caused Him to Leave Show

It wasn't all acting. The incredibly loud-mouthed, obnoxious character of Erlich Bachman on HBO's comedy hit, Silicon Valley, seems to be matched in these characteristics by the actor who portrayed him, T.J. Miller. Miller last made the news in a big way when he was arrested last December for hitting his Uber driver for the high crime of not sharing his Trump Derangement Syndrome.

The latest news about Miller is the announcement that he has left Silicon Valley for good.  Miller actually claimed in a July 20 interview with Claire Fallon of the HuffPost (formerly Huffington Post) that President Donald Trump caused him to leave the hit comedy show. However, it is easy to suspect that the rest of the 'Silicon Valley' cast detested Miller every bit as much as they couldn't stand his Erlich Bachman character especially since he badmouthed them.

"I can call my uncle in Beijing. He's a very corrupt."

Possibly the FUNNIEST line in the show! He was sort of hidden at first but I am getting a big kick out of the character of Jian Yang.

Jian Yang is my favorite on that show. Bachman is an A-hole but at least he doesn’t have to act.

They really hate each other.

Or at least Miller really hates Middleditch.

The tragedy is that they have so much in common.

It would be hard to find two more annoying people in the world.

But they're annoying in such different ways.

Aw, and Disney found someone else to voice “Fred” in the “Big Hero 6” series. Looks like he won’t be busy for a while.
