Remember during the election when Democrats were talking about all these workers that Trump hired to do work in his buildings, who took him to court because they said he stiffed them? The meme was that Trump was an unscrupulous businessman.
Yet unlike Hollywood, where a small handful of powerful people, who all know each other, call all the shots, the building industry is so vast, that even a rich and famous guy like Trump would not be able to prevent a skilled worker with a good reputation from getting work, just because they got on the wrong side of him.
The movie industry deals strictly with entertainment. Nobody has to spend money on a movie, the way they spend money on food, clothing, or other necessities. A movie studio can give the green light to begin production on a particular movie. And then, if they don’t like how the production is progressing, they can put the brakes on it, and focus on some other project instead. It’s all up to the whims of the studio honchos to decide which crappy movie they’re going to ultimately get behind. So one starlet’s movie could wind up being a hit, while another starlet’s movie never gets released.
On the other hand, if a developer puts up a building, unless they run out of money, the building gets finished. If they need a contractor to install kitchens for a certain price and within a certain time frame, they’re not going to say “we can’t hire this guy because he had a feud with Donald Trump”.
Voters ignored all these accusations against Trump, because they know that in the building industry, people are held accountable for their actions. And if Trump was so unscrupulous, there would have been 50 times more people sueing him.
But in Hollywood, much like world of politics, it’s all about who you know, who you sleep with, whose butt you’re willing to kiss, and how well you can keep your mouth shut.
So let the Democrats and the Hollywood A listers get even closer to each other than they already are. The average person has more respect for a salt of the earth laborer than they do for brown nosing careerists working in an industries whose whole foundation is BS artists “working a room”.
Let all these idiot Libs keep scratching their heads and wondering why voters decided to take a chance on someone who spent their life in a private sector industry that has strict regulations that have to followed, rather than another career politician, who has a group of sycophants that have been willing to cover up all their misdeeds during their climb to the top of the political ladder.
