Star Trek’ Universe Sets Phasers To Stun ‘Amateur’ Donald Trump...Huff Post: [View all]
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/star-trek-against-donald-trump_us_57ee3a9ee4b024a52d2e51d7?section=&The “Star Trek” universe has united in a bid to defeat Donald Trump.
More than 100 past and present cast and crew members from the hit TV shows and movies have come together under the “Trek Against Trump” banner to try to stop the GOP nominee from taking office.
George Takei, Zoe Saldana, J.J. Abrams and Will Wheaton are among those who called Trump “an amateur with a contemptuous ignorance of national laws and international realities” in a blistering Facebook post on Thursday.
They also urged voters to elect Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton on Nov. 8.
“We cannot turn our backs on what is happening in the upcoming election,” they wrote. “Never has there been a presidential candidate who stands in such complete opposition to the ideals of the ‘Star Trek’ universe as Donald Trump.”
