Actress Christina Applegate was vocal about her anguish on social media, questioning the validity of Trump's victory and expressing deep concerns over reproductive rights. In a heartfelt post, she revealed her daughter's distress about potential restrictions on women's rights, imploring those who disagree to "unfollow" her. Applegate’s emotional response mirrors the sentiments of many in Hollywood who feel threatened by Trump's policies.

Nancy Lee Grahn, known for her role in soap operas, echoed similar disillusionment, stating that she has exhausted her efforts for change and plans to leave social media for the sake of her daughter. Grahn's vulnerability illustrates the weight of uncertainty many feel as political tides shift.

Bette Midler appeared to fulfill a prior commitment to exit social media if Trump were to win, promptly disappearing from X after the election results, leaving her followers bereft of her commentary and wit.

Horror author Stephen King also weighed in, reflecting on democracy's precariousness and likening it to fragile items vulnerable to breaking. His analogy highlights ongoing concerns about Trump's leadership style, which many see as imperiling democratic principles.

Additionally, actress Sharon Stone revealed her contemplation of buying property abroad, citing Trump's hate-driven platform as a catalyst for considering a move outside the United States.

The emotional backlash from Hollywood illustrates a significant ideological divide between the entertainment industry and the wider public. As reactions continue to pour in, the impact of these sentiments on social activism and public discourse in America will be closely watched.
