As a lifelong resident of this great nation and a witness to its tumultuous political landscape, I must say that Donald Trump’s presidency, much like a rollercoaster ride, has been an unpredictable journey filled with highs and lows. However, unlike a rollercoaster, the consequences of this ride are not as easily reset when the final credits roll.
The unexpected triumph of Donald Trump in the presidential election left many people in Hollywood, including actors, celebrities, and media figures, expressing sorrow and disappointment on social media during late Tuesday and early Wednesday.
Christina Applegate, who was once famous for the sitcom “Married…With Children,” expressed concern that Donald Trump’s victory could further endanger women’s reproductive rights, following the overturning of Roe v. Wade in 2022. In a post on X, she questioned, “Why? What are your reasons for this?” She also shared that her child is crying due to the possibility of losing her rights as a woman. She then asked, “Why? And if you disagree with me, please unfollow me.
As a devoted movie enthusiast, I can’t help but share my thoughts on David Simon’s poignant commentary following recent events. In his own inimitable style, he penned on X: “May we all be blessed, even the rogues and ne’er-do-wells.” Similarly, Wendell Pierce, a stellar actor known for his roles in “The Wire” and another Simon creation, “Treme,” voiced his apprehensions about Trump’s potential to establish a conservative majority within the Supreme Court post his election.
He stated that the Supreme Court would undergo a significant transformation for many years, and he wouldn’t witness a moderate court during his lifetime again. He predicted that Justices Alito and Thomas would retire, allowing Trump to appoint young, ideologically-driven individuals to replace them. He warned that the impact Trump might have on our institutions over the next two years would be profound and potentially impossible to reverse.
Actress Yvette Nicole Brown, known for her role in “Community,” expressed deep disappointment over Senator Sherrod Brown’s loss to challenger Bernie Moreno, which handed control of the Senate to the Republicans. She described it as a level of disgrace she finds hard to quantify. In response to Trump’s election victory, she stated on X: “For us, this is just an ordinary Wednesday. Black Americans are accustomed to this. The rest of you are about to experience a shock at how America treats you when it doesn’t value you. And your new leader doesn’t care about any of you. The learning phase has begun.
Stephen King adopted a more melancholic tone in his statement. Comparing it to stores selling delicate items, he wrote on social media: “There’s a sign you often see in these shops: ‘Nice to gaze upon, pleasing to touch, but once broken, then it’s for sale.’ In the same way, one could argue that democracy functions.
Humorist and performer Michael Ian Black attempted to find the silver lining by penning: “Let’s strive to make this Final Chapter of America the most exceptional one yet!
