James Woods Reveals the Moment That Drove Him From the Democrat Party — It Explains Why He Hates Hillary
Anyone who has watched actor James Woods interact on Twitter knows that he is unapologetic in his support for President Donald Trump.
Throughout the 2016 campaign, he repeatedly reminded his followers that the attack on Benghazi happened not just on former President Barack Obama’s watch, but on Hillary Clinton’s as well.
And his support of President Trump — as well as horrible things such as historical monuments and Second Amendment rights — has certainly affected his popularity in Hollywood.
When asked:
Are there more #Repub actors than we know, and they all just remain quiet for fear of being shunned and blacklisted?

Woods quickly replied:
Absolutely. The only reason I express my views is that I have accepted the fact that I’m blacklisted. Also I bought Apple stock in the 80’s https://t.co/mNGNhRmx9d

And:
How did that affect your career?

While #Liberals scream about the 50’s blacklist, my #Repub actor friends are terrified of losing their ability to provide for their families https://t.co/MjsiUBSxB5

And a few others have backed that up in the past:
I have many A List friends that are republican and don’t speak out for fear of being blacklisted. They tell me in private on Facebook. Sad

Yea, I was blacklisted for NOT thinking like everyone else in our industry.

But despite the number of people who know exactly where Woods stands now, far fewer are aware he used to be a — gasp — Democrat.
Someone asked the veteran actor how he’d managed to spend so much time in Hollywood and not be a part of the groupthink for which it is famous:
James, how did you not get taken in & get fooled by the Democratic Party like so many other people?

For Woods, the response was simple:
I was for years, until #Clinton was impeached. Every single #Democrat without exception stood behind a convicted perjurer. That was the end. https://t.co/FSQpoBXAAt

And when one considers the fact that Woods’ IQ is estimated to be 180 or higher (for reference, Albert Einstein had an IQ of 160), it might be wise for more of Hollywood to listen to Woods rather than blacklist him.
