President Donald Trump is set to face a backlash from Hollywood as he descends on Los Angeles to raise money for his re-election campaign during the week of the Emmy Awards.
Mr Trump's opponents in the entertainment industry have demanded to know who is going to his fundraising event on Tuesday, and vowed "not to work with them again" on film and television projects.
The US president escalated the row by calling attention to a massive rise in the number of homeless people in Los Angeles, and elsewhere in California, blaming Democrats for the crisis.

Jerry Brown, the former Democrat governor of the state, accused Mr Trump of "Stalinism and thuggery" over the emissions issue.
California has long been regarded as an electoral cash machine by presidential candidates. Mr Trump's fundraising event is expected to be held in the Beverly Hills 90210 post code, at the home of billionaire property tycoon Geoffrey Palmer, an early supporter who has already donated over $7 million.

I no longer have any moral qualms about pirated downloads of the movies I wish to view.

The ONLY “Hollywood stars” mentioned in the entire article are TV actors Debra Messing and Eric McCormack of the TV sitcom “Will & Grace.”
Or simply find a way to interfere with their sweetheart deals that give them so many tax breaks and free advantages.
I thought they already moved out of the country.
The public sees stories like this as reported as “news”, and thinks it is of some consequence.
It isn’t.
Good!
I can’t stand all the Leftist in Hollywood!
