Trump Resigns From the Screen Actors Guild

Facing expulsion from the Screen Actors Guild, (SAG), former President Donald Trump resigns instead, saying “Who cares!” Last month, the union board met in a special session last month. They and found “probable cause” that Trump violated union rules. As a result, the board ordered a hearing from the SAG-AFTRA’s Disciplinary Committee.

The committee charged that Trump played a role in inciting the attack on the US Capitol on January 6. They called out his “reckless campaign of misinformation aimed at discrediting and ultimately threatening the safety of journalists,” some of which are SAG-AFTRA members. On January 19, the SAG-AFTRA board voted “overwhelmingly” that Trump violated the union's membership guidelines. As a result, he is liable for expulsion from the union.
SAG Officers Find Probable Cause
The SAG said that Trump did violate union rules when he allegedly encouraged a mob to march towards the Capitol on January 6. “Donald Trump attacked the values that this union holds most sacred – democracy, truth, respect for our fellow Americans of all races and faiths, and the sanctity of the free press. There’s a straight line from his wanton disregard for the truth to the attacks on journalists perpetrated by his followers,” Carteris said last month.
“Our most important role as a union is the protection of our members. The unfortunate truth is, this individual’s words and actions over the past four years have presented actual harm to our broadcast journalist members. The board’s resolution addresses this effort to undermine freedom of the press and reaffirms the principles on which our democratic society rests, and which we must all work to protect and preserve,” remarked National Executive Director David White
Trump’s Letter in Full
Addressing his letter to union president Gabrielle Carteris, Trump said he is resigning from the union. The entire transcript of the letter is as follows:
“I write to you today regarding the so-called Disciplinary Committee hearing aimed at revoking my union membership. Who cares!
While I’m not familiar with your work, I’m very proud of my work on movies such as Home Alone 2, Zoolander and Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps; and television shows including The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Saturday Night Live, and of course, one of the most successful shows in television history, The Apprentice – to name just a few!
I’ve also greatly helped the cable news television business (said to be a dying platform with not much time left until I got involved in politics) and created thousands of jobs at networks such as MSDNC and Fake News CNN, among many others.
This brings me to your blatant attempt at free media attention to distract from your dismal record as a union. Your organization has done little for its members, and nothing for me – besides collecting dues and promoting dangerous un-American policies and ideas – as evident by your massive unemployment rates and lawsuits from celebrated actors, who even recorded a video asking, “Why isn’t the union fighting for me?”
These, however, are policy failures. Your disciplinary failures are even more egregious. I no longer wish to be associated with your union. As such, this letter is to inform you of my immediate resignation from SAG-AFTRA. You have done nothing for me.”
‘Why Isn’t the Union Fighting For Me?’
In his letter, Trump referred to a video made by actors including Mark Hammill, Whoopi Goldberg, and Morgan Freeman. These actors, along with others, criticized the union’s health plan benefits cuts. In the video, Goldberg asks: “Why isn’t the union fighting for me?”
A member of the SAG since 1989, the union would have called Trump to attend a disciplinary hearing. Instead, Trump resigns by sending a scathing letter. Afterward, the SAG sent a two-word reply: Thank you.

Seems that former President Trump summed it up perfectly. Some of the actors really take their narcissism to great levels and they are huge whiners!!! Funny how none of the actors threatening to leave country NEVER did. Oh how they LOVE the American money.
Great choice
Well said!!
We now know for sure the SAG is a liberal organization. They don’t check facts out. Just made me dislike hollyweird that much more.
Donald J Trump does not need the union or screen actors guide. I love how all the shitty people in government are starting to float to the surface as well as the actors in hollyweed
I never really saw him as a true actor. Meaning at the same caliber as Heston, Cruise or Eastwood, or even an extra. Why there is a big hullaballoo over him even leaving SAG is no big deal. Joining it, yes but I guess he had to but leave it at that. He is a let me try this for something new type. See what it got us when he wanted to play President? He did not get anything playing actor but this article
You can’t even compare the past actors like Wayne, Tracy, Hepburn, Heston, Turner , Garland, Hudson, Day, Taylor, Ball and so many more that got paid pennies compared to what the elite get today, to the so called actors of today! Except for a few like Washington, Freeman, Douglas (not as good as his father) They cannot come close to the earlier ones to the torch even if they get ridiculous salaries for their egos!!! Good riddens to all you clowns. You won’t get one dollar from me in the movies!
Peg Bittner: I am sorry that your hatred for Donald Trump has overridden your ability to reason.
As President, Donald Trump was the BEST President in my 74 years lifetime! He generated the Best economy in the world with the LOWEST unemployment for blacks, Hispanics, and women in the history of statistics of unemployment.
Again, I am sorry that you have chosen to remain ignorant in your hatred!
Trump doesn’t need them so it’s no big deal. Hollywood is just a bunch of snobs anyway and they will meet their doom soon enough when the people stop going to see their movies because of their greed and outlandish opinions of “normal” ordinary every day people.
Go Donald! The main stream media has alot to do with the people’s feelings about you because they can’t think for themselves. The mad rush for essentials depleting our stores is a prime example of that control. It’s sad that this country has the IQ at best of 100. Thus they depend on others to think for them. I myself have stopped watching TV in 2000. The best thing I’ve ever done. I believe in you.
Donald Trump is a man of integrity and American blood. He never needed to be a part of your SAG party. He is his own man fighting for YOU so that you can turn your cheek on him, pretty sad. And what’s worse is that he did it for free.
