Rosie O’Donnell, Amy Schumer, Miley Cyrus and George Clooney are part of a group of celebrities calling for a total Hollywood strike “until Trump resigns”.
A group of liberal Hollywood celebrities are threatening a “massive, all-round Hollywood strike” unless Donald Trump resigns. Describing Hollywood as “the base of the entire modern American culture“, the group also claims to be speaking on behalf of “all of humanity.”
“It’s about time people understood that we’re the ones with the power and that the president is there to serve us, not the other way around“, a spokesperson for the group told The New York Times.
“We’re calling for a general strike that would include every single person involved in making motion pictures in Hollywood, starting with the actors and celebrities themselves and encompassing companies in charge of making props, movie memorabilia and even souvenir shops.”
Spinzon reports: Rosie O’Donnell, Debra Messing, Ed Asner and Michael Shannon are among the dozens of artists, entertainers, and activists who have attached their names to an effort calling for a month-long protest to stop President-elect Donald Trump.
“No! In the Name of Humanity We Refuse to Accept a Fascist America!” reads a full-page ad placed in the New York Times on Wednesday by the group Refuse Racism. “Donald Trump, the President-elect, is assembling a regime of grave danger,” the ad says.
“Millions of people in the US and around the world are filled with deep anxiety, fear and disgust. Our anguish is right and just. Our anger must now become massive resistance – before Donald Trump is inaugurated and has the full reins of power in his hands.”
Other Hollywood celebrities who have also joined the campaign, however, are calling for an all-out strike that would span the entire movie industry in the hopes that such a move would urge the President-elect to resign from his position as the newly elected President of the United States.
“We’re calling for a general strike that would include every single person involved in making motion pictures in Hollywood, starting with the actors and celebrities themselves and encompassing companies in charge of making props, movie memorabilia and even souvenir shops,” a spokesperson for the Refuse Racism group told The New York Times. “It’s about time people understood that we’re the ones with the power and that the president is there to serve us, not the other way around.”
As much as these “actors” just phone it in and merely read their corny lines while letting CGI do all the work, I thought they had been on strike.
Do it!!
You tried calling the Tea Party racist. All that got was the Dem Party almost completely out of power. Please, please, keep it up, there are still some Democrats in elected office.
Ya my thoughts too. I watch very little TV or current movies. I watch mostly old.movies and reruns anyway. Hollywood actually made some good TV shows and movies back in the old days. But many people don’t see them because they are watching the current drivel which comes out of Hollywood.

There are thousands of up and coming actors ( younger, older and foreign) who would love that ‘self deportation’ exercise in futility.
“Go ahead, make my day!”
More winning!
What in the world?.
OK, do it! Please! Hollywood would be replaced instantly by countless alternatives, all available on the internet right now.
Please do it. No one would miss you. What a delusional, insane bunch of self-aggrandized navel gazers. What, you think that if Hollywood went on strike, civilization would grind to a halt? What? Insanity. Liberalism is truly a mental disease, which is probably the only positive thing Michael "Savage" ever brought to our culture.
Wow, are they ever in for an upsetting eight years.
Oh no, please don’t do that! How ever will us commoners function??? /s
Now what this would do would put out of work all those “Peons” that actually make this work in the first place.
The camera operators, the makeup folks, drivers, the list goes on and on. Did these Celebrity Elitists bother asking those people about this so called strike? No and they don’t care about those that really do all the real work bringing a movie to the big or small screen.
The question is would anyone notice?
I doubt it...
You can’t make s*** today anyway . . . Your movies, TV, music, it all sucks
So go ahead, stop with it all.....we won’t miss a thing, esp STD types like Miley and Rosie and Amy . . . And George can move to Middle East to be with his Muzzie brethren
You promised your would leave, now stop hesitating and GO. . .. GTHO the sooner the better. GO
Oh yes, please do it!
Many thousands of actors, male & female, are just waiting-in- the-wings for their chance.
Go away celebrities.
Yep... that’ll work. Go for it, twinkies .
Hysterical.
Egos on parade.
If all plumbers threatened not to work I’d pay attention,but ACTORS?????????
.
Don't let the door hit ya where the good lord split ya.
Does anyone give a care about this group of nothings, most of whom do nothing? They obviously don't care about the entertainment business working stiffs who are wage dependent.
