Hotshot Hollywood Producer's Anti-Trump Rant Backfires When Crowd Revolts Despite what many in the entertainment industry seem to think, people are tired of politics being brought into every possible arena of life. Hollywood producer Jason Blum found this out after he bizarrely chose to use a film festival as a forum for spouting his anti-Trump opinions. On Tuesday, Blum, who is the founder of Blumhouse Productions and has produced for critically acclaimed movies such as “Get Out” and “Whiplash,” was given an award at the Israel Film Festival in Beverly Hills. According to The Hollywood Reporter, during Blum’s acceptance speech, he took the opportunity to go on a rant against the president. “Tonight we have much to celebrate with the opening of the 32nd Israeli Film Festival, but at the same time today, Americans went to the polls to exercise our right to vote,” Blum said. “I have been quietly checking my phone and we’re doing pretty well,” he continued, to which some audience members responded, “Depends for who.” “The election results are pouring in as I speak, and a lot is on the line,” Blum said.  “The great thing about this country is that you can like Trump, but I don’t have to, and I can say what I feel about it — and I don’t like it!” But many people in the audience weren’t pleased with his anti-Trump remarks or his injection of politics into what was meant to be a celebration of film. Some started walking out, while many of those who stayed booed as Blum continued his irrelevant tirade. Blum carried on with his political speech** as the audience whistled and booed louder and more people walked out**.   Source Article Here
