Hollywood elites continued to engage in unhinged histrionics over President Donald Trump in 2019, ratcheting up their hysterical rhetoric to new comic heights.
The usual Tinseltown suspects trotted out their bizarre claims and tin-foil conspiracy theories, using the weight of their celebrity to try to sway public opinion in their favor. They included Robert De Niro, Michael Moore, Cher, Sarah Silverman, Chelsea Handler, Alec Baldwin, and many more.
Here are some of the wildest celebrity quotes of 2019, running the gamut from President Trump to climate change to abortion and beyond.

Robert De Niro: Martin Scorsese Believes Trump Will Start a War to Get 3 Terms in Office
“I’m worried because if he gets re-elected, it’s gonna be very, very bad—very bad on a lot of levels. He’s going to be history at one point, though he’d love to be president for life. He jokes about it,” De Niro said in an interview with the Daily Beast.
“I think that if he became president for a second term he’d try to have a third term, and let smarter people manipulate it into getting us into some kind of altercation: a war.”
De Niro added: “The only other president who served a third term was Roosevelt because he was in a war, and this fool would go and start something. This was what Marty Scorsese was saying, and I said, ‘Marty, I never thought of that. I never thought he’d go for a third term if there was a war or something.’”
Chelsea Handler Admits She’s “Very Sexually Attracted to Robert Mueller”
The former talk show host took wishful thinking to the next level by tweeting her physical attraction to the FBI special counsel.
“If I’m being completely honest, I am very sexually attracted to Robert Mueller. I know it’s not meant to be, but that doesn’t mean I won’t hang a poster of him above my bed.”

Robert Redford Says Impeaching Trump Is Pointless If There Will Be “No Planet to Live On”
The Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid star wrote in an op-ed article for Time magazine that impeaching President Trump and admitting refugees won’t matter due to climate change.
In the piece, titled “Don’t Fall for Political Distractions. Saving Our Planet Must Come First,” Redford wrote: “Collusion, obstruction of justice, impeachment or not, greedy tax breaks, medical care for all or none, refugees seeking compassion at our borders — as a citizen, I care deeply about all these things.”
He added: “But I also fail to see how any of it will matter without a planet to live on. We are approaching an irreversible tipping point. The science of climate change is backed by examples of the damage mankind has caused all around us, every day and everywhere. None of us are immune anymore; no matter where we live, no matter our political party.”
Barbra Streisand: Women Who Support Trump “Vote the Way Their Husbands Vote”

“Yes the anti-abortion movement is primarily about controlling women’s bodies under the premise (for many, sincere) of saving lives, and yes this law is primarily the work of white men HOWEVER a white woman sponsored the bill and a white woman signed it into law,” the Oscar-winner’s lengthy Instagram message began.
“As we’re resisting, let us also call out the complicity of the white women who made this awful moment possible, and which — make no mistake — WILL lead to the unnecessary and avoidable deaths of women, a disproportionate number of whom will be poor and/or black.”

The left-wing documentary filmmaker praised the 16-year-old climate activist in a series of tweets, saying adults “should feel shame” for allowing her to “show us the way” to deal with climate change.

“I don’t know how much I can say, because I don’t want my wife to be mad at me,” Middleditch told the magazine. “Only after I got married was I like, ‘Mollie, I’m sorry, but we have to get nontraditional here.’ To her credit, instead of saying ‘Fuck you, I’m out,’ she was like, ‘Let’s figure this out.’”

Dame Helen Mirren Dismisses Concept of ‘Binary Sexuality’
The Oscar-winning British star said in an October interview with Radio Times that the idea of “binary sexuality” is a false construct.
“I came to the conclusion an awfully long time ago that there is black and there is white, and we’re all somewhere in the middle in a wonderful mix of male and female,” Mirren said.
“There is no such thing as binary sexuality, when you’re male or female. I don’t believe that at all.”

If trump’s base, the most extreme right wingers since the Nazis, would just stop and look at the financial damage inflicted on them by the GOP, I believe they’d join the fight. The GOP is asking their base a question right now…would you rather hate or eat?

Jimmy Kimmel Defends Hunter Biden, Smears Lara Trump: ‘Heartless Imbecile with Lip Injections’
The late night talk-show host launched into a politically loaded monologue in October, siding with Hunter Biden over President Trump.
“Team Trump has been spreading all sorts of unproven nonsense about Hunter Biden, and I don’t get that,” Kimmel said. “I mean, why would they align themselves with these conspiracy theories when they can just point out that Hunter Biden is a 49-year-old man with two bracelets? For me, that’s all I need to know.”
Kimmel later insulted Lara Trump, the wife of Eric Trump, after she praised President Trump’s decision to pull U.S. troops out of Kurdish-controlled northern Syria in a Fox News interview.
“They’d also have to google, ‘Who is the heartless imbecile with lip injections on my TV right now’?” Kimmel joked.

So take off all [your] clothes [and] get back your big booties buts back into Big Daddy’s hot tub. Don’t bring Streisand. Too freaky.”
Is this tweet considered online sexual harassment or predatory behavior? Where is the #MeToo movement?@TomArnold, you may not have respect for yourself but you don't get to disrespect Diamond and Silk! pic.twitter.com/1aU25Kgl8P
