Mark Hamill Wants Trump's Hollywood Star Replaced with Carrie Fisher's

Mark Hamill continues to advocate for a Carrie Fisher star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. However, this time he is throwing out the idea of removing Donald Trump's and replacing it with one for his late Star Wars co-star. Hamill has been urging for Fisher to have a star for years now and he is totally fine with taking out Trump's to make some room, which might not sit well with some Star Wars fans.

This all started when chairman of The Democratic Coalition, Jon Cooper, asked what people should get Donald Trump for his 73rd birthday, which is tomorrow, June 14th. Mark Hamill responded with the idea of changing Trump's star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame to include the word "traitor" and then add a Russian hammer and sickle. Hamill had this to say about his possible present for Trump's big day.

"I'd have his Walk of Fame Star updated & corrected, or even better, replace his with someone who actually deserves one."

That "someone who actually deserves one" is obviously Carrie Fisher. The Princess Leia actress sadly passed away in late 2016 and still does not have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. This isn't the first time Mark Hamill has targeted Donald Trump's star to be replaced with one for Fisher. He did so in 2018 when Star Trek star William Shatner was shocked to discover she did not have one after all of these years. Hamill is not a big fan of the current president and often spends a decent amount of time trolling him on social media.

Carrie Fisher was a national treasure. Donald Trump is a national disgrace.
