Several Hollywood celebrities have come under fire for making condescending comments following the presidential election. In a letter to the editor, Jeannie Weldin from Dumont, NJ, criticizes actors like Alec Baldwin and Sharon Stone for their arrogant attitudes. Weldin questions why these celebrities believe they know better than the rest of the country and highlights Baldwin’s past controversies. Similarly, Jean Cole from Juno Beach, FL, expresses a desire for these actors to leave the country if they are so dissatisfied with the state of affairs. Louie Scarcella from Brooklyn mocks the stars for insulting the intelligence of Americans compared to a “wad of gum.”
Another writer, Michael D’Auria of Bronxville, questions when Americans stopped listening to Hollywood elites and Democratic Party supporters, suggesting it may have been during the recent political turmoil. Wayne Galvin from Lynbrook calls out celebrities threatening to leave the country, noting that their actions are merely a form of virtue signaling. Lastly, Rick Cabrera from Elmhurst wonders why celebrities like Alec Baldwin and Sharon Stone would choose countries with troubled political histories over moving to Mexico if they are truly dissatisfied with the United States. The sentiment is clear across these letters: Americans are growing tired of Hollywood celebrities making uninformed and disparaging remarks about the country.
