Trump Reacts To Celebrities Who Can’t Quit Him, Like Clooney And Stern

Former President Donald Trump reacted to celebrities like George Clooney and Howard Stern who seem to love to hate him and have made clear they won’t be voting for him against Vice President Kamala Harris.

On Wednesday, during Trump’s appearance on Fox News’ “Gutfeld” show, host Greg Gutfeld introduced a segment called “Celebs can’t quit Donald Trump.” It included clips from “Jimmy Kimmel Live” when Clooney admitted he thought that Trump might use the “power of the government” against him, but was “comforted in the fact that” Trump’s coming after Kimmel first.

Kimmel also read a post from Trump in July in which he told Clooney to “get out of politics” and “go back to television.” On the show Tuesday, Clooney replied, “I will if he does.” Trump’s original post came after the 63-year-old actor took out an op-ed calling on President Joe Biden to drop out of the race following Biden’s disastrous presidential debate against Trump.

In a second clip, Gutfeld played radio shock jock Howard Stern, who made news this week when he said that he didn’t hate Trump, just those who vote for the former president.

“This whole idea of you like me, you are good, and if you don’t, you are bad … I’ve been the victim of this,” Stern told his audience. “I don’t agree with Trump politically, I don’t think he should be anywhere near the White House.”

“I don’t hate the guy,” he added. “I hate the people who vote for him. I think they are stupid. I do. I have no respect for you.”

A third clip showed Kimmel interviewing rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs in August 2018 in which Combs said he wouldn’t make a “good president” because he wouldn’t “pass” any of the things you need to, before taking a dig at Trump, claiming, “but I guess Trump didn’t.”

Gutfeld noted the last clip “didn’t age well” for Kimmel or Combs, the latter of whom is currently in the news after being denied bail for a second time after being arraigned on racketeering and sex trafficking charges with the release of a New York grand jury indictment.

The host then asked Trump about the hatred he faces from celebs and shared that his theory is that stars like Clooney and Stern feel that way because the former president “puts their fame into the proper perspective when it’s dwarfed by somebody with more fame.”

“Well I watch and know most of them,” Trump said, noting his long history of being on Stern’s show for a big part of the radio host’s career. “He [Stern] was great at that time, then he went woke.”

“And since he’s gone woke, his ratings have gone down the tube,” he added. “And he sort of went anti-Trump for a couple of reasons … but he’s changed and he doesn’t do the ratings anymore.”

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
