In an unapologetically frank open letter, published to a Facebook page called Trek Against Trump, "Star Trek" actors, directors, producers, and crew members expressed their political stance that Donald Trump represents the opposite of everything "Star Trek" stands for and should not be allowed anywhere near the presidency.
"We cannot turn our backs on what is happening in the upcoming election," the letter reads. "Never has there been a presidential candidate who stands in such complete opposition to the ideals of the Star Trek universe as Donald Trump."
The letter was signed by J.J. Abrams (director of the 2009 "Star Trek" reboot), Scott Bakula (the captain from "Star Trek: Enterprise"), Eugene "Rod" Roddenberry (son of "Star Trek" creator Gene Roddenberry), many members of the late Leonard Nimoy's family, and many more.

If Star Trek was really for peace and anti-’Gun”, why do they have phasers? Shouldnt they be all talk because tallking solves problems? These idiots are just plain idiots.
The Borg have spoken!
(F)ilm (A)ctors (G)uild!
I’m surprised ISIS hasn’t targeted comic-con for a little terrorist fun. Bunch of nuevo homos there, such as this group.
I’m one of them. I’m good at lying to my biz colleagues. For example, I’ve been invited more than 10 times to go to a faggot wedding and even a mixer for them. My rolodex of excuses gets more sophisticated every time.
This just proves that the liberals in hollywood are like liberals anywhere else- they only hire other liberals.
Never put one in charge
Just when I thought I couldn’t hate JJ Abrams any more
Same here, no more Trek for me.
Remember folks, it is people like these in Star Trek and all the entertainment industry, who covered for and protected Bill Cosby for over 40 years. And we are supposed to give a damn about their opinions??
Bunch of fake people from an imaginary world hate Mr. Trump. So?
Glad I haven't paid to see any of their movies for a long time. Have made a choice to never pay to see anything they produce ever again.
Buy foreign movies people. If you must pay for entertainment from communists, let them be foreign communists.
I probably saw most episodes as re-runs but made a point of seeing only one episode as a first run on TV. My reaction was: Who is the stilted weirdo with the pointy ears?
You could accurately say that I was always in opposition to most values of "Star Trek Universe." And proud of it.
Well they can just beam up and kiss my ass!
I’d tell them to shove it up their collective utopian asses, but they’d probably enjoy it.
Guess I won’t even be tempted to watch the upcoming series, now. Good move, morons - alienate half of your potential audience so you can save the world from evil rich people who don’t want to see the country destroyed.
Lock them up.
Neither Captain Picard or Captain Kirk signed. Doesn't that make this a Mutiny?
They will get a response in about a month.
President Trump.
LOL
I’ve watched a lot of Star Trek, starting with the first run episodes of the original series, but I didn’t realize that it stood for Marxism and a criminally corrupt Federal government.
Like these people have any influence for my life journey. They are people who pretend for a living - here one day gone the next. Gnats on my life’s path.
Yeah, they are supposed to be intergalactic diployakkers.
