Can Trump Make Hollywood Great Again?

Hollywood took a turn for the worse in the wake of the George Floyd riots.

Not only did Cancel Culture ramp up but select programs were memory-holed for their “problematic” content. Case in point: Tina Fey approved the removal of four “30 Rock” episodes with black face-adjacent gags.

Warning labels suddenly graced beloved films, from “Dumbo” to “Goodfellas.” Comedians had to watch what they said or risk career repercussions.

The most shocking nod to diversity at all costs? The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences made Best Picture nominees adapt to woke bylaws … or else.

The Oscars has “inclusivity rules” in order to qualify for Best Picture 2024

Films needed to hire diverse crews, tell stories about underrepresented groups or otherwise align with woke ideology to qualify for the industry’s biggest honor.

Some prominent films haven’t made the cut.

The worst part? Artists remained silent on the measure, save Richard Dreyfuss. The Oscar winner said the diversity mandates made him want to vomit.

Now, the Trump administration might take a stand on the punitive measures.

The Washington Examiner reports that those Oscar rules may go the way of the 8-track tape.

President Donald Trump’s top civil rights adviser [Harmeet K. Dhillon] said she was open to digging into the Academy’s 2020 quota requirements, suggesting that the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission would take the lead.

The bipartisan Judicial Watch spurred Dhillon’s comments, contesting the way Best Picture winners are chosen within Hollywood.

The Trump administration has made significant strides in attacking DEI-style measures across the country. That includes universities that use race in their recruitment measures.

It wouldn’t be the first time Team Trump addressed Tinsel Town’s woes.

President Trump recruited Hollywood legends like Jon Voight earlier this year to suggest ways to help the film industry. The issue has some bipartisan support. California is scrambling to beef up tax incentives to lure more productions back to the greater Los Angeles area.
