Hollywood Insiders Dreading Possible Trump Win


Hollywood insiders are expressing dread over tomorrow’s presidential election because it’s so close.

According to a new report from Hollywood outlet Deadline, the fact that former President Trump has a good shot at re-taking the White House is driving serious anxiety in Hollywood circles.

"Fascism is at the door, and her campaign isn’t fighting back enough, aren’t breaking through," a PR executive told the outlet, fretting that the Harris campaign hasn’t taken a clear lead.

"It’s too tight in the battleground states, and she needs a sweep to make it to 270 [electoral votes]," the executive added. "This should have been over, a done deal, weeks ago."

The race between Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris is currently neck and neck, with top pollsters unable to make any real predictions about who will win.  

Fox Digital News reports the outlet reported on Friday that, according to insiders, "dread over a possible Trump return to the Oval Office has become the only conversation anyone in the C-suites and West L.A. enclosures are having right now."

These conversations "alternate from cautious optimism to dismay to out-and-out anger."

Many Hollywood A-listers have pledged their support for Harris and even joined her on the campaign tail in recent weeks just to help give her a much-needed bump over the former president. Beyoncé appeared at a Harris rally in recent weeks, as did pop star Jennifer Lopez, who spoke at Harris’ Las Vegas rally Thursday where she slammed comedian Tony Hinchcliffe’s deprecating Puerto Rico joke he made at Trump’s New York City rally.

Rapper Cardi B spoke at Harris’ Milwaukee rally on Friday. 

Despite the star power trying to prop up the vice president, one self-described "compassionate conservative" Hollywood player told Deadline that only the endorsement of former President George W. Bush would make a difference this late in the game.
