Hollywood freaked out Sunday night following a report that President Donald Trump is planning to announce an end to the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program.
George Takei called the move “cruel, divisive, and politically motivated,” and took aim at Trump supporters who voted for him. The Politico report, based on anonymous sources, claimed Trump will end the program that grants amnesty to young people who were brought to the country illegally, with a six-month delay to allow Congress to act on it if it chooses.

“Trump’s plan to deport Dreamers in 6 mos. is cruel, divisive and politically motivated. Shame on him, and shame on us for electing him,” Takei tweeted to his 2.6 million followers.

Comedian Sarah Silverman did not mince words in her attack, calling the president “garbage.”
“All I can think to say to Trump is “you are garbage” and then I realize he’s probably garbage bc his father told him ‘you are garbage,'” Silverman tweeted.

When historians write of @realDonaldTrump‘s tenure, one word will be used over and over:
Cruelty.

Unfortunately there is no other way to say this: Donald J. Trump is a heartless prick.
