AJ+, the online news channel run by Al Jazeera Media Network, is reporting Monday that West Hollywood’s City Council is considering a resolution that would permanently remove President Donald Trump’s star from the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
When we checked in late July, a vandal had destroyed the star, and it looked like the Hollywood Historic Trust was on the hook for up to $30,000 in repairs and maintenance.
Maybe the city council just wants the star gone to remove the headaches of protesters vandalizing it, or maybe they’ve come up with a really wide range of reasons why someone shouldn’t have a star.
West Hollywood's City Council will vote on a resolution to permanently remove President Trump’s star from the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The resolution cites family separations, Trump's climate change denial and "his disturbing treatment of women" as reasons for removal. pic.twitter.com/EJsBVI23Vt

Trump’s climate change denial? For real? And don’t make us laugh by citing Trump’s “disturbing treatment of women” — although that would let Kevin Spacey and his adjacent star off the hook.
Maybe the city could just hire brave Ron Perlman to patrol the Walk of Fame and pee on the stars he doesn’t like.

At least two out of three of these reasons could apply to a lot of stars. Why not just say they are tired of replacing it? https://t.co/VToRyEPT0h

Kevin Spacey's star remains unmolested, unlike many of his colleagues and children he worked with over the years. https://t.co/USQ3p8YOTz

Bill Cosby, Kevin Spacey, and countless rape enablers get to keep their stars though, because Drumpf. https://t.co/iuzIdC4Lsg

Doesn't Harvey Weinstein have one? https://t.co/vCBwnUjOg4

Kevin Spacey, Harvey Weinstein, and Roman Polanski all have stars. Why remove trump’s star when all of these people have actually raped someone? Why not remove THEIR stars? https://t.co/77HHevcyNn

You're gonna need to remove a shitload of stars then, if the reason for it is "disturbing treatment of women". https://t.co/CpY2cqyqfU

“Disturbing treatment of women” would remove a lot more than Donald Trump from that walk of fame. Y’all really gonna make this your hill to die on? https://t.co/oqEpEJjEIb

Replace it with one for Barack Obama instead. https://t.co/MWjafdxMKd

They probably will: liberals have already found excuses to give him the Nobel Peace Prize, a Grammy or two, and the RFK Human Rights award, among others.
The Walk of Fame isn’t in West Hollywood. (I know. Details, details.) https://t.co/WuFiP34s0C

So, it’s just another hollow, politically driven resolution to make council feel good about themselves? That figures.
Okay fine but the star's not in West Hollywood??? So is the resolution that the City Council's going to walk over to regular-Hollywood with pickaxes because that sounds like a fun field trip https://t.co/UuSkB0jwEE

Better yet, find this woman from a couple years back and pay her to guard it:
