The Grammy Awards turned into another predictable anti-Trump political rally Sunday night as wealthy celebrities used their platform to slam President Trump's highly successful immigration enforcement operations, showing just how disconnected Hollywood remains from everyday Americans who voted for secure borders.
Musicians and other entertainment industry figures took every opportunity to criticize Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and the Trump administration's deportation efforts during the 68th annual Grammy Awards in Los Angeles – the same sanctuary city that's been harboring illegal immigrants while American citizens suffer from crime and resource strain.
This latest celebrity tantrum follows the same script we saw at last month's Golden Globe Awards, where Hollywood elites similarly attacked Trump's America First immigration policies. It's becoming crystal clear that these millionaire celebrities would rather virtue signal to their progressive bubble than acknowledge the will of the American people who decisively elected Trump to finish the job on border security.
Reality Check: Americans Support Deportations
While these out-of-touch stars clutch their pearls over ICE doing its job, real Americans are celebrating Trump's swift action to remove criminal illegal aliens from our communities. The President campaigned on mass deportations and won in a landslide – but apparently Grammy attendees think they know better than voters.
These are the same celebrities who live in gated mansions with private security while lecturing working-class Americans about compassion. Where was their compassion for Angel families who lost loved ones to illegal immigrant crime? Where's their concern for American workers whose wages are suppressed by illegal labor?
"Hollywood continues to show they're completely disconnected from the concerns of ordinary Americans who want safe communities and secure borders."
The entertainment industry's coordinated attacks on Trump's immigration enforcement reveal their true priorities: protecting their cheap labor and nanny services while ordinary Americans deal with the consequences of open borders.
President Trump isn't backing down from his mandate to secure our borders and remove those who entered illegally. While celebrities cry into their golden gramophones, ICE agents are doing the hard work of making America safe again – exactly what voters demanded.
