Hollywood has spent years losing its mind over Donald Trump, calling him everything from a \u201cmass murderer\u201d to a \u201cwannabe dictator.\u201d Now, in a twist no one saw coming, they suddenly need his help. Why? Because AI is threatening their paychecks, and now they want the government to step in and protect them.<\/p>\n
Hollywood Gives Trump Another Thing To Save<\/h3>\n
Over 400 entertainment industry figures\u2014including some of Trump\u2019s loudest critics\u2014just signed a letter to his administration. Their plea? Don\u2019t roll back copyright protections, or AI companies might freely use their work without permission. The irony is so thick you could cut it with a knife. These are the same people who ranted about Trump\u2019s policies, swore he was destroying democracy, and built entire careers off performative outrage. But now that AI could replace them, they\u2019re knocking on his door like he\u2019s their last hope.<\/p>\n

\nTo name a few of the smears celebrities have hurled at Trump: Hollywood film director Judd Apatow, known for The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Anchorman, and Talladega Nights, has called President Trump a \u201cmass murderer.\u201d Actor Mark Ruffalo, just this week claimed President Trump is \u201cmarch[ing] to dictatorship.\u201d Actor Ben Stiller, who in 2021 reacted to Trump getting banned from social media platforms saying the president\u2019s so-called \u201cdivisive rhetoric\u201d has \u201creal-life consequences.\u201d Actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt called Trump a \u201ccon man.\u201d Bette Midler wished for someone to \u201cshiv\u201d or \u201cstab\u201d Trump. They, along with also signed off on the letter begging the Trump administration to hear their plea<\/em>. \u2013 Breitbart<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
The letter argues that copyright protections have been essential to America\u2019s cultural and economic success. Which, fine, that\u2019s true. But where was this sudden respect for laws and property rights when they were demanding radical reforms that, conveniently, never touched their own fortunes? Hollywood has always loved government intervention\u2014until it wasn\u2019t working in their favor. Now, they\u2019re realizing that maybe, just maybe, the Trump administration is the only thing standing between them and an AI-powered industry that doesn\u2019t need them anymore.<\/p>\n
\nPLOT TWIST:
Hundreds of celebrities, including many liberals who have previously publicly insulted Donald Trump, are now begging for his help in pushing back against big tech proposals on AI. https:\/\/t.co\/grsmaAYYjV<\/a><\/p>\n\u2014 Boone Cutler \ud83e\uddac\ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8 \ud83e\udd85 (@boonecutler) March 18, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
It\u2019s a beautiful display of hypocrisy. After years of treating Trump like their ultimate villain, these celebrities are now playing the part of desperate petitioners, hoping he\u2019ll swoop in and save them. Whether he listens or not is anyone\u2019s guess. But one thing\u2019s for sure\u2014nothing exposes self-interest like the fear of losing money.<\/p>\n
Mark Ruffalo is one of the celebrities attaching his name to the letter. This you, Mark?<\/p>\n
\nThere is no one keeping America safe from being looted by Trump and Elon. https:\/\/t.co\/qEEtl9opSD<\/a><\/p>\n
