Hollywood celebrities went into meltdown mode on Tuesday following the announcement that President Donald Trump fired FBI Director James Comey.
Huge numbers of Hollywood’s elite took to twitter to express their anger, rage and frustration over the fact that Trump made such a decisive, bold move and caught them and the liberal mainstream media on the back foot.
Rosie O’Donnell called for Trump to immediately “resign” following the shock announcement, while Chelsea Handler thoughtfully added that Donald Trump “definitely has syphillis.”
Breitbart.com reports: Leftist celebrities — including longtime Trump critics Rosie O’Donnell, Michael Moore, Chelsea Handler and Joss Whedon — were up in arms over Tuesday’s announcement.
“Trump might just as well have said: ‘Lock me up,’” wrote actor and filmmaker Rob Reiner. “Last gasp of a dying man. GOP stop being unpatriotic pussies.”
“RESIGN YOU PATHETIC MORONIC SPOILED RICH PRICK,” added O’Donnell.
Below, find a sampling of Hollywood’s reaction to Comey’s firing.

When the President fires the man investigating him, and Congress and the Justice Dept won't act, we have a full blown constitutional crisis.

Trump thinks he's still on Celebrity Apprentice! Wow! #Trump #Comey #comeyfired

Trump fires Comey "because he wasn't fair to Hillary."
Are there even any Republicans buying this BS?
