Brad Pitt continued his awards season (and acceptance speech) domination on Sunday night, winning the supporting actor Oscar for his portrayal of stuntman Cliff Booth in Quentin Tarantino’s “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.” During his speech, Pitt also got political, calling out the Trump impeachment trial for blocking the testimony of former national security adviser John Bolton. “They told me I only have 45 seconds up here, which is 45 seconds more than the Senate gave John Bolton this week,” he said on stage. “I’m thinking maybe Quentin does a movie about it — in the end, the adults

And 45 seconds more than the House hearings gave to any exculpatory evidence.

Your concern for Bolton is admirable. How did you feel about him 2 years ago?

Surely they are smart enough to know that few people really care about the political remarks of an actor.
Or, maybe they really aren't that smart. They see their awards event continue to lose audience and attendance at motion picture theatres declining, but they keep doing it. Yes, they are DUMB.

Another useless idiot who reads other people's words for a living, trying to read political lines that someone else clearly wrote for him -- and failing miserably!!!!!
Thanks for adding yourself to the list of actors I won't waste another penny to see in one of their movies!!!!

The Lawyers present their case and it goes to the jury.
The jury cannot receive further evidence, it has to base it's verdict on what was presented.
The Democrats presented nothing but hearsay and BS.
If Pitt cannot see that the whole thing was a farce to begin with he is an idiot.

FWIW, Brad Pitt was married to Angelina Jolie. Angelina Jolie’s father is Jon Voight. Jon Voight is a fan of President Trump. President Trump awarded Jon Voight the National Medal of Arts and National Humanities Medal in November 2019. According to Wikipedia, Angelina Jolie is a Democrat; her father, Jon Voight, is a Republican. A quick search indicates that Brad Pitt is a Democrat and supported Barack Obama. Seems to be a typical Hollywood Democrat devotee with, possibly, resentment toward his former father-in-law, Jon Voight, a Republican and ardent Trump supporter.

I would not employ an actor that makes political speeches in connection with the movie at award shows, or public appearances related to the movie promotion. They can exercise their free speech rights, but not in connection with the movie, or its promotion. Employment agreements should so require. It is not right to spend millions of dollars on an actor, then have them get up and anger half the audience in movie related appearances.

Pretty boy is butthurt,awww, want a tissue? People see movies because they want to be entertained-it's a luxury, not a necessity. And prettyboy wouldn't be in the situation he's in if the democratic socialists had their way-no disposable income, no movie-tickets. Why can't they see that from Hollywood? Where do they think money comes from? All their socialist heroes got rich by taking other people's money, not earning their own. Hey Brad, what's in the box?

He has obviously wanted an oscar for a long time. He finally wins one and spends his acceptance speech spewing hate about politics. What a waste of time, and what an idiot he truly is. Go smoke some more dope, Braddy Boy.

This is exactly why i didn’t watch it. Take sides politically and you just blew off half your fans. Romney is his new hero. Brad is a Pittiful uneducated ignorant fool who probably has never read the Constitution and knows nothing about it. And it shows.

Nice to hear the opinion of a PhD in political science. No such degree for Brad? I looked it up: this pretty boy's highest degree was from Kickapoo high school.

He only knows what the rat media tells him. As Bill Mahar said, his audience has no idea what Crossfire Hurricane is.
The real problem for Brad is he is starting to bump up against the past due date for pretty boys and now he will have to dig down for actual acting. He literally is the character DeCaprio was playing in the movie he won his Oscar for. He makes Tom Cruise look like the greatest actor ever. For a guy who has fantasies about being an architect, he sure is limited in knowledge. Please, Brad, explain exactly what the crime was that Trump did and why in the heck do you support a FBI that destroys evidence, entraps people and acts like the private police of the NSA, who lies to the courts to spy on anyone they want for no reason? How is that great in your privileged world?

Another actor's movie I must avoid. Soon there will be no more. Wish they would all "shuddup" and act!
More and more, I'm watching foreign films, especially Asian movies.

Simply impeach this genuine idiot by seeing NONE of his movies. And getting an award from many who supported Harvey Weinstein AND Hillary Clinton is quite an "honor."

I believe that I've seen every movie Pitt's been in since the beginning, but guess what buddy boy, never again. As I've posted in the past, I used to go to movies once or twice a week. Now, because of the likes of deNiro, Pitt and a bushel basket of high school drop outs and perverts, I may go once or twice a year.
Fools like Pitt and the rest of the left wing hollyweird gang don't realize that it is us, the Deplorable's that used to go to the movies in droves, not any more.

Quick. Name ten people in Hollyweird with a college education. Brad should stick to playing dress up and pretending to be someone else.

It's not like we thought he was a conservative or anything, but one of the things we liked about Brad Pitt was that he didn't say stupid things like this. Such a shame, I hate to tell my husband I saw this. Almost all of them drink the kool-aid, bunch of foolish sheep.

I've praised Brad Pitt's performance to all my friends. His speech at the Oscars was very different from the ones he has made at other awards shows. I blame the speech writers. Obama has spoiled everything.

The usual boring stuff. But it should be noted Hollywood's deep political thinkers spew their nonsense safe in the knowledge that none of the sycophantic red-carpet press will ask them any questions about it - especially the embarrassing kind that might test knowledge of the subjects in the rant. For the press know even less about important matters.
