All together now. A growing number of Hollywood celebrities are demanding that President Donald Trump resign from office as the coronavirus pandemic continues to grip the world.
Star Trek actor and left-wing activist George Takei appears to have started the trend on Twitter on Wednesday, writing “The president needs to resign.”
