James Woods made a shocking announcement on Thursday, revealing he is leaving the Republican Party. The 78-year-old actor, known for his conservative views, has embraced MAGA politics and called Trump ‘the greatest president of my lifetime,’ making him one of Hollywood’s most outspoken supporters.
He has also claimed that his politics have come at a cost, alleging professional backlash in Hollywood - from his agent dropping him to fewer acting roles - which he attributed to being ‘blacklisted’ for his outspoken views. Now, Woods says he’s fed up with the Republican Party itself. Taking to X, he criticized congressional Republicans for blocking an effort to investigate Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar, arguing that some GOP lawmakers aren’t doing enough to hold the opposition accountable. ‘I am done with the Republican Party,’ Woods wrote. ‘Between this and Thune’s refusal to pass the SAVE Act, I’m done with these uniparty traitors.'
Look if your (not you specfically) reasoning for leaving the repub party is that you're not being allowed to bully more progressive people like IIhan Omar, then maybe it's just you.
