Randy Quaid unloaded on his fellow Hollywood actors over their calls for a “blacklist” of President Donald Trump’s donors.
The Academy Award-nominated actor slammed the “naive” stars, Eric McCormack, Melissa Gilbert and Debra Messing, in a tweet denouncing their attempts to shame Trump donors.

Quaid, star of films like “Independence Day” and “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation,” remarked in a Sunday tweet that he is “being trolled with negative, decade old Fake News stories” since he denounced the blacklisting efforts of the actors in previous tweets.
I’ve noticed since my tweets criticizing @EricMcCormack , @DebraMessing & @MEGBusfield desire to create a blacklist of POTUS donors “not to work with” in the entertainment industry that I am now being trolled with negative, decade old Fake News stories about me…

The 68-year-old had already called out “Will & Grace” star Eric McCormack, an actor who recently tweeted a call for the naming of Trump donors attending a fundraiser in Beverly Hills next month in an attempt to blacklist them from working in Hollywood.
Hey @EricMcCormack go ahead make my day! BLACKLIST “us” Trump donors so that we can all be clear who the Canadian actor is who came to America to steal jobs from Americans. https://t.co/xLCal1jtLz

Gilbert, of “Little House on the Prairie” fame, lashed out at Quaid in response, prompting the actor to call her out as well.
Let me get THIS clear, @MEGBusfield the ex-head of the Screen Actors Guild supports blacklisting actors for their political views and Trump support! TO BE CLEAR, nothing in your malicious tweet about me is correct. #SAGAFTRA #MAGA #LaborDayWeekend #RandyQuaid #Trump2020 ?? https://t.co/iEOnQIOVsW

Messing, McCormack’s co-star on “Will & Grace,” had also demanded a list of attendees to the fundraiser, claiming the “public has a right to know.”

Please print a list of all attendees please. The public has a right to know. https://t.co/YV4UoxrPHI

Messing came under fire from President Trump directly after her demands and following her praise of an Alabama church that displayed a sign reading: “a black vote for Trump is mental illness.”
I have not forgotten that when it was announced that I was going to do The Apprentice, and when it then became a big hit, helping NBC’s failed lineup greatly, @DebraMessing came up to me at an Upfront & profusely thanked me, even calling me “Sir.” How times have changed!

Quaid called the blacklisting attempts a “hit job” in a series of tweets condemning the violation of First Amendment rights and citing his own experiences.
…. It’s clearly a hit job serving three naive actors that want to bring back McCarthyism to Hollywood by urging an American news organization, The Hollywood Reporter, to conspire with them to publish a list of names for the purpose of harming specific individuals’…..

…career prospects while also violating their First Amendment and civil rights. But why stop there? Why not hold hearings, bring in your union thugs from Canada to beat up our family members, like was done to me in a Broadway union insurance scam (Got the video to prove it!)…
— Randy Quaid (@RandyRRQuaid) September 1, 2019
The actor then issued his own demand.
…On behalf of Trump supporters everywhere I demand that these three actors (and my fellow union members) retract their blacklist threats immediately and that The Hollywood Reporter @THR publicly reject their request. #TRUMP2020Landside

“Justified” actor and outspoken conservative Nick Searcy offered Quaid a hearty note of appreciation.
Thanks to my fellow American @RandyRRQuaid https://t.co/cKUvmG9vhw

He also slammed her elitism and “hypocrisy.”
When you contributed, nobody demanded you be put on a list so they could avoid employing you, did they, @Debramessing? Because that would be black-listing, wouldn’t it?
The hypocrisy is truly stunning. This is true fascism. https://t.co/Z4ClEHwmpl

Actor John O’Hurley, who starred in the NBC sitcom “Seinfeld,” simply said he was “embarrassed” for Messing.
He pointed out that liberals “form packs” and “groups” and dominate Hollywood because “they have the bully pulpit right now to say it out loud,” speaking with Fox News anchor Leland Vittert on “America’s Newsroom” Monday.

“Well, let me just say that I’m embarrassed for both of them,” O’Hurley said, referring to Messing and McCormack. “And I’ll say this because I know them both and I’ve worked with Debra before. They are both smart people. They do wonderful work, but they’re pushing the case that falls apart from the sheer weight of its lunacy as though the Hollywood community needs to be purged of this social and intellectual hygiene problem called conservative thinking.
Actor Adam Baldwin joined the pile-up on the liberal actors.

The Superman actor Dean Cain, who starred in “Lois and Clark,” also had a clear message for Messing on the Trump fundraiser.
I’m not attending, because I’ll be out of town. Otherwise, I’d have been happy to attend. https://t.co/VWPbuPPQi9

Quaid has posted many videos narrating the president’s tweets in a dramatic voice with strange lighting.

But he is consistent about his views and found a collective standing ovation on Twitter for his scathing attack on Hollywood liberals.
Love you Mr Quaid!!! Thank you for speaking out. ❤️
