Excellent idea. We won’t have to listen to the hysterical speeches given by one Hollywood a**hole after another on Oscar night.

Cancelling the Oscars would just be a START.

If they REALLY want to punish Trump America, they can stop making movies, thereby depriving us of their incredible genius.

Don’t just cancel the broadcast...Cancel the whole thing altogether. The funny part is these morons probably think we care!

I’d love to see them cancel the Oscars. The I’ll have more time to watch paint dry.

As a side note, if these Hollywood paragons are so into the LGBTQ movement, maybe they should do away with Best Actor and Best Actress awards. Replace them with Best It...or something?

Yeah, that’ll teach us a lesson!

Overpaid narcissists think depriving us of them is a punishment. Hilarious.

PLEASE. Maybe something more worthwhile will be broadcast instead — like a test pattern.

These jerks really do have an over-inflated opinion of their importance, don’t they?

Hilarious! Let’s unravel that “threat” a little: The narcissists will deprive us of their wondrous presence unless we bring Trump to heel? Do these morons even listen to themselves??? Their opinion on everything is about as important to me as a spec of lint on the bottom of my shoe. They, the MSM, academia and the dimmo party (but I repeat myself) can all kiss my a$$.
