“Time to Fight”: Celebrities Rally After Trump Secures Second Term

Celebs are not holding back about Donald Trump’s big comeback as president, and their reactions are all over the map. Trump’s win over Kamala Harris, despite her star-studded support—from Beyoncé and J.Lo to Bruce Springsteen—has Hollywood buzzing with shock and frustration.

Director Adam McKay of Don’t Look Up fame went on a Twitter spree, slamming the Democrats’ approach. “Lying about Biden’s health, no open convention, and embracing fracking? Yeah, guess that backfired,” he ranted, even hinting it’s time to ditch the Democratic Party.

A Shock to the System: Hollywood’s Reaction to Trump’s Win

Cardi B, who rallied for Harris, didn’t mince words. She posted a video watching the results, looking devastated and shouting at her followers on Instagram Live: “Burn your f*ing hats, motherf**rs!” Her response was raw and unfiltered, saying she’s “really sad” and “sick of it.”

Jamie Lee Curtis, clearly worried, took to Instagram with a powerful post. She called Trump’s win a return to “a restrictive time” but urged her fans to fight for their rights, especially for women and children, against what she called “tyranny.”

John Cusack didn’t hold back either. He called voting Trump back in “deep nihilism” and even labeled him as a “convicted felon rapist.” Cusack’s frustration was palpable, and he wasn’t sugar-coating anything.

Others, like Christina Applegate, shared the personal side. She said her daughter was in tears, worried her rights as a woman might disappear. “Why?” she asked, adding, “If you disagree, please unfollow me.” Billie Eilish echoed this sentiment, calling it “a war on women” on her Instagram story.

Ariana Grande showed solidarity, posting on Instagram that she’s “holding the hand” of everyone who’s feeling the weight of this news. Wendell Pierce praised Harris for her campaign, while warning, “Elections have consequences,” emphasizing that the Supreme Court could lean more conservative for generations.

Voices of Frustration and Defiance

Author Stephen King jumped in with a metaphor, saying democracy is like a fragile item with a “handle with care” warning. And Duncan Jones, David Bowie’s son, said the outcome made him feel “very Brexity,” suggesting he’s losing faith in people’s goodness.

On the other end, some celebs and influencers backed Trump. Joe Rogan posted a “WHOLE. LEE. SHIT.” reaction on X. Piers Morgan posted a video celebrating “the Trump train” while Elon Musk chimed in with a cheeky “Let that sink in” meme from the Oval Office.

Cardi B wasn’t alone in her feelings. She reminded fans that Harris did her best, saying, “I hope she knows how proud we are of her.” And Riverdale’s Lili Reinhart empathized with women who had accused Trump of assault, saying her heart breaks for them.

Actress Bette Midler quoted H.L. Mencken, suggesting the White House has become a circus, while Susie Dent offered “recrudescence” as the word of the day, meaning the return of something bad after a break.

It’s clear emotions are all over the place, with celebs voicing their frustrations, fears, and some downright outrage. Whether it’s the high hopes that fizzled for Harris or the warnings about what’s next, Hollywood is buzzing.
