Donald Trump Says "Hollywood Is Really Racist"

Takes one to know one

The wacky and delusional Donald Trump continues to run his mouth off on the job. (The job, it should be endlessly reiterated, of President of the United States of America.) The latest lunacy to come from his perpetually pursed lips is a statement that Hollywood is really racist.

When he was asked about a so-called anti-conservative bias on social media, Trump used the opportunity to talk about show business. 

"Hollywood is really terrible," he said. "You talk about 'racist.' Hollywood is racist. What they're doing, with the kind of movies they're putting out, it's actually very dangerous for our country. What Hollywood is doing is a tremendous disservice to our country."

Of course, Hollywood is incredibly racist, from whitewashing its films to biases in casting and a general lack of representation. But before anyone calls this an example of horseshoe theory at play, just remember that no one, including Trump, knows what Trump is talking about.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Trump is obsessed with using the term Hollywood when describing his enemies. In the last two months alone, his campaign has criticized "Hollywood megadonors" 13 times, referring to those who donate money to his rivals.
