Ron Howard shreds Trump fans’ hypocrisy over Streep: Trump was a reality show star spewing birther lies


Oscar-winning director Ron Howard exposed the hypocritical behavior of President-elect Trump’s loudest supporters in just a handful of tweets.

Howard took umbrage with the barrage of angry tweets from Trump voters directed at Meryl Streep, who gave a thunderous condemnation of Donald Trump during her Golden Globes acceptance speech on Sunday night. Howard directly challenged Trump supporters who told Streep to stick to the entertainment industry and not discuss politics:

@RealRonHoward It would be nice if Streep had any idea of the facts! It's always disgusting when these celebs repeated the lies from the MSM

@deanne_tate trump was a reality tv star spouting criticisms of a president & reinforcing the Birther Lie. but now celebs should b muzzled?

Howard pointed out to one Twitter user who said Meryl Streep was ignorant of “the facts” that Trump is frequent to play fast and loose with the facts, like he did with his numerous tweets promoting the false conspiracy theory that President Obama wasn’t born in the United States. He also urged the incoming president to act “presidential” and not turn the presidency into professional wrestling.
