The liberal hysteria isn’t stopping anytime soon.
The Hollywood elitists somehow have deluded themselves that Donald Trump is the worst thing that’s ever happened to America.
But a famous novelist just exposed the hypocritical hysteria of the Hollywood elites and it’s absolutely hilarious.
Author and cultural critic Bret Easton Ellis who is known for his acclaimed novel American Psycho has made the news lately with his twitter handle.
Ellis recently tweeted, “Defending the American voter I’m yelled at in Sunset Tower for being a Trump apologist and colluding with Russia. Is the Left [expletive] NUTS?
Of course, shocked liberals everywhere attacked the famous author because how dare he not be defending them!
But then Ellis felt the need to follow up his twitter with a story he had written in an email about a dinner engagement with a Hollywood producer.
And the story demonstrates the delusion of the Hollywood elite perfectly.
Bret Easton Ellis wrote in his email:
“Hey, I was with a friend (a Hollywood producer), and it was a private conversation. I brought up something about fake news in relation to a movie I’d seen (Baby Driver is the cinematic equivalent of fake news, I think was the line), and she started to go ballistic on me for using that term.
I defended not only my use of it, but the use of it in a wider context, and then all hell broke loose.
I kept it together but she lost it, even attacking my socialist millennial boyfriend who she has known for 7 years (he wasn’t there) when I told her he has stopped watching MSNBC and Rachel Maddow (his goddess for awhile) after being disappointed and turned-off by their fake news (not that my boyfriend agrees with the term ‘fake news’ either, but the MSNBC bias was not moving the needle for him fast enough), empty promises from Maddow in terms of the Russians and impeachment and taxes — nada, nothing, nada.
MSNBC was replaced by the Food Network and Japanese animation for him.
On Saturday, I just listened — sometimes disagreed — and mostly let her talk, but when defending the Electoral College and how the system works (I didn’t vote for Trump), she accused me of being on Trump’s side and therefore colluding with everything he represents.
Once home, I threw a couple of tweets out frustrated and a little buzzed; nothing out of the ordinary, just how a lot of people are feeling.
I try not to tweet anything political just because I’m not that interested, as my boyfriend pointed out — my boyfriend thought the tweets were ‘pious’ and ‘low-vibrational.’
I don’t do interviews regarding politics, so I say no to just about everyone. Sometimes I’ll talk about it on my podcast, but really it’s the media that I’m appalled by.
As for whoever’s in the White House — they got voted in, what can you do? What I’m critiquing has nothing to do with Left/Right, liberal/conservative — I don’t believe in those labels, so, whatevs.
I also want to make clear that this doesn’t happen all the time: people know better and there’s a lot of groupthink out here, so the idea of things being constantly ruined isn’t necessarily true.
There are tribes; Beverly Hills went red for Trump, so L.A. being 100% anti-Trump is not that clear cut.
For me, as a gay man living in West Hollywood, it’s really only a few people so fatally immersed in the bubble that can get my usually chill self somewhat pissed off.
My dinner partner on Saturday said she had never heard that Comey admitted the NY Times had gotten a series of stories wrong.
She thought I had made that up. When I told her the world isn’t this — gesturing around the dark opulence of The Sunset Tower — and that the divide is real, she dismissed it with Trump’s approval ratings without acknowledging the media’s approval ratings are lower than Trump’s.
She pointed out that MSNBC was killing it in the ratings and I told her that Maddow and Hannity are basically neck-and-neck any given night–and yet I was thinking, ‘I don’t watch either one!’ So why am I even engaging in this?’”
At least some of the left is starting to wake up, but others like the Hollywood producer mentioned will never accept the fact that Donald Trump is their President. That’s the reality they can’t deal with.
Surprise, surprise, surprise. You can’t have a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent.
I just lud dat, “unarmed opponent” lol. Reminds me of the movie, “Young Frankenstein”
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yH97lImrr0Q
Dr. Frankenstein: Now… that brain that you gave me… was it Hans Delbruck’s?
Igor: [Crosses arms] No.
Dr. Frankenstein: [Holds up hand] Ah. Good. Uh… would you mind telling me… whose brain… I did put in?
Igor: And you won’t be angry?
Dr. Frankenstein: I will not be angry.
Igor: [Shrugs] Abby…someone.
Dr. Frankenstein: Abby someone? Abby who?
Igor: Abby Normal.
Dr. Frankenstein: [takes a deep breath] Abby Normal?
Igor: I’m almost sure that was the name. [He and Dr. Frankenstein laugh]
Dr. Frankenstein: Are you saying… [Stands] that I put an abnormal brain… [Puts hand on Igor’s hump] into a 7 and a half foot long… 54- inch wide… [Grabs Igor by throat] GORILLA?!?!?! [Strangling Igor] IS THAT WHAT YOU’RE TELLING ME!?!
Great!!!
Hollywood great march into irrelevance.
all this crap is so trite, tiring,and boring. the hate trump left needs to go to a safe place for 8 years. we need to hear no more from them.
The fact that President Trump is shameless, is what is making the Left-wing SO damn crazy!!
The Left has so weaponize shame and it’s been such a potent weapon for decades now, that they have no other weapon of note in their arsenal! And by being shameless there’s no power that can be exerted over you, short of physical coercion (such as we are seeing with Antifa).
Drives them nuts being so powerless!! A control freak is always worried about their control slipping, and this IS what drives them.
But when it actually DOES slip and they ACTUALLY lose the ability to manipulate the situation, they go full scale psycho! It’s rare we get to see it play out on a mass scale such as this though! It’s all fun and games till someone pokes an eye out…

There are some on the right that would rather execute treasonous leftist libtards (once and for all) so that America can be rid of the chaos/destruction that they’ve brought to this country. Obama, Clinton, Holder, Pelosi, Lynch, and Comey should all make the “firing squad” hit list. The Nuremberg Trials and Benedict Arnold have nothing on these individuals.
Obviously , HUAC never got rid of all the Communists in Hollywood . Now , it’s 99% RED .
Their movies haven’t moved me for decades anyway . Of course they hate President Trump , I’d be very , very worried if they were supporters of Trump.
It is just that simple. They are communists. The news media and colleges have been captured by the communists. We need to correct that quickly. The PC brain washing is working. The ability to do critical thinking is no longer allowed.
Excellent point!!
The “Hollyweirdos” offer irrefutable proof that having fame and fortune does not also bestow an ability for reasoned and logical thinking, balanced and cautious analysis of an issue, or to possess the slightest inkling of logical thought. If you were to ask one of them, or a campus snowflake for that matter, to explain in detail why they have such a virulent hatred of Trump, you would likely get the now-tiresome cliches of racist, misogynist, etc. Pushed for specific examples, they repeat the Party line of unproven generalities. Give them proven examples of their political and social idols having done far worse than anything they can accuse Trump of having done, and they usually revert to name calling. In their tormented minds, thou shalt not cast aspersions on a Clinton or an Obama. They march in lock step, spouting the mantra that’s most popular among the king makers and money dispensers of heir own isolated, mutual admiration society, little world.
That’s why I likened them unto Frankenstein’s monster with an abnormal brain LOL.
I see the top echelon of the Hollywood circus as a gang of Dr. Frankensteins, manically driven for control, and wielding their power and authority over their underlings, the actors, who like Igor are slavishly loyal and obedient, and sparing no efforts to serve and please their masters.
