President Trump does not have much of a fan club in Hollywood. Jennifer Lopez, Robert De Niro, John Legend, Miley Cyrus and countless others have spoken out about why they dont support him.
Some of the celebrities who do actively back Trump, including Kristy Swanson, Dean Cain, Scott Baio and Isaiah Washington, sat down with the director of a new documentary filmed during the pandemic and amid the protests sparked by the police killing of George Floyd, Trump vs. Hollywood, to talk about what that feels like.
Barak says she was inspired to make the movie after seeing so much division.
In the documentarys first trailer, which was released Tuesday, former Lois and Clark actor Cain, gave his perspective: Theres no compassion. Theyre so hypocritical, its unreal. They just dont like the man.
Actress Swanson asked, Why is it not OK in Hollywood to be a conservative?
The Buffy the Vampire Slayer star said she hopes for change.
I feel that its time to set the example of lets just all get along, ya know? she said. We can learn from each other. We dont have to hate each other.
When it was Charles in Charge star Baios turn, he was much less conciliatory: If youre not hiring me because Im a conservative, shame on you. If theres a civil war, then dont forget who has all the guns.
He also lamented, It bothers me that people wont speak to me, because Im a Trump guy.

People are sold an idea, an image, that is likely frivilous but can be not very safe, responsible, or supportable (smoking). But hey the billions in ads works for the gun industry. Guns will not make you safer when things really start to fly Scottie.

They take their liberal or progressive stance just to piss you off. You personally. Even though you don't talk to them.
It's now that you should start to see the problem, Scott.

Hence the plethora of reality tv shows and superhero movies.

Artists, almost by definition don't lean right. One can't be creative if you're always selfishly scheming how to do dirt and screw people.

Scott Baio can tell himself that no one is hiring him because he's a Trump guy if he wants to. The real reason is of course that he is a no talent has been.
