At the Toronto Film Festival to promote his latest movie Eden, Ron Howard faced questions about JD Vance from multiple news outlets, some of which clearly had an ax to grind against Vance.

<< “I’m very surprised and disappointed by much of the rhetoric that I’m reading and hearing.” >>
Not surprisingly, he gives no examples.

Is anyone surprised? Had Howard said anything positive, his career would be dead.

JD should make a public statement to Ron Howard and tell him
“no more disappointed than I am with you for thinking that I am obligated to please you Ron by supporting your political views”.

Trump was a Hollywood favorite until he had the nerve to beat Hillary. Here’s Trump at the 2005 Emmy Awards. They loved him.

Same kind of thing with Vance. Stay on the reservation, and it’s smiles all around. Leave the reservation, and Opie gets mad at you.
