Celebrities like Elizabeth Banks, Michael Moore, Rosie O’Donnell and Sarah Silverman threw a genuine hissy fit during President Donald Trump’s first State of the Union Address Tuesday.
Stars couldn’t help react to the president’s speech, that hit on such topics as North Korea, immigration, the military, terrorism and the economy, whether they actually were listening to it live or not.
“I tried. I listened but the amount of BS and stunts and questions raised that will never be answered made me throw my remote and now I am listening to Tom Petty and am a better American for it. #SOTU,” Banks tweeted.

“Trump using heartbroken families and actual heroes of conscience to get applause for his horrifying, cowardly policies is instantly poisonous and embarrassing. #SOTU,” Patton Oswalt tweeted.

No mention of Niger or of Sgt LaDavid Johnson, no mention of those Soldiers. Why not.. just asking.

You can tell when Trump is reading, because he reads like an 8 y/o boy (the age he’s stuck in, emotionally.) He says THEE (for “the”) and AY (for “a”)

We stand with working people, not Wall Street. We need an infrastructure plan to create millions of jobs, not corporate wealth. #TrumpSellsOut #SOTU

Here’s my fun tweet about the #SOTU: the President is a lying, incompetent, racist, misogynistic sack of shit. Please register to VOTE in the Midterms on Nov 6th: https://t.co/hgzVrS1E2z
