Pat Boone: Donald Trump's win is a slap in the face for Hollywood
Fox News ^ | November 11, 2016 | Blanche Johnson

Posted on 11/11/2016 2:20:24 PM PST by Ciaphas Cain

Every rich and famous megastar from Katy Perry to Lady Gaga to Justin Timberlake backed Hillary Clinton in a big way, but it didn’t help her secure a spot in the White House. Meanwhile, the vast majority of Hollywood’s elite shunned Donald Trump. Celebs even teamed up to produce several star-studded viral videos dedicated to taking Trump down.

Singer and Trump supporter Pat Boone thinks the Republican’s presidential win is a slap in the face for Hollywood's top stars.

“Donald Trump's unprecedented, emphatic win is a tremendous rebuke, a humongous... slap to the pompous, pampered Hollywood super-rich, supercilious, super brainwashed, over privileged crowd,” he told FOX411.

And Larry Sabato, director of the University of Virginia's Center for Politics, said Trump’s defeat of Clinton proved that Hollywood has no real influence over politics.

“Hollywood celebrities cannot change votes,” he said. “At best they can motivate lazy partisans, such as some millennials, who find lots of reasons why they don't have time to vote. And they raise money and attract the TV cameras.”

After being blacklisted from Hollywood for supporting Trump, Antonio Sabato Jr. told FOX411 this election season was not about the Hollywood celebrities campaigning.

“This election was about the United States of America; this election was about the people of this country and they came from all kinds of races and backgrounds and they stood together and they voted for the right man,” he said. “The celebrity aspect of it didn't work, the people spoke and they voted.”

Larry Sabato called it: Clinton, 347 to Trump, 191.

The Sabato first name Larry is a convicted douche-nozzle, but like Megyn Smelly, Brian whatshisname (the liar, liar) and all the other undead talking heads, they seem to have the shelf life of croutons, Grape Nuts and other stuff that lives forever in the pantry, even if it breaks your teeth.

Time for a revived House Committee on Un-American Activities to investigate Hollywood. Time for a new Hollywood Ten.

No need for that. Just repeal all that sweetheart legislation that lengthened copyright terms to over a hundred years. Then get rid of the legal mandates supporting ASCAP.

OK, that’s harsh. The Larry is just wrong. Often.
Like so many others who tried to convince us Shrillary was a lock.

Thank you, Pat.

Why is Larry Sabato being quoted? He’s a has-been and a dinosaur.

“We haven’t heard from Rosie O’Donut yet, is she still in a sugar coma?”

Let’s hope she’s at home, packing her bags, so she can vacate our country!

Rosie O’Donut is having to deal with her adopted daughter growing up and telling the world that her mom treated her and her siblings like rescue dogs from the shelter.

Perhaps not for Un-American activities, but for discriminatory blacklisting.

I saw Hacksaw Ridge, and there were trailers for upcoming movies with Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, and Jennifer Lawrence. They looked interesting, but I am happily going to avoid all of them because they have Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, and Jennifer Lawrence. Have the snowflakes support you ya dorks.

I don't know. I thought this bundle of joy was moving to Canada or Neptune.

The only way parasitic, blood-sucking, useless over-eaters like Rosie will actually leave the host will be if they are frog-marched to the airport by the kind of muscle used by deprogrammers, Outward Bound and drug rehabbers on recalcitrant Hairy Krishnas, spoiled brats and junkies.

All it would take would be one Trump executive order, and I volunteer to make their dreams come true.

The Snowflakes aren’t interested in watching a movie about
DESMOND DOSS, a real man. I’d like to see the movie. The
ACTORS need to stick to their jobs (acting) and quit acting
like they’re experts on politics.
