James Woods: Twitter creep
I always feel a little sad when I learn that some actor or actress I like turns out to have terrible politics. I’m still recovering from my recent discovery that Mike Nelson of MST3K fame is a right winger who loves the Washington Times and Michael Medved. Michael Freaking Medved!! Maybe he really should be shot into space to watch bad films for all eternity.
And then there’s James Woods, so good at playing creepy charmers, perhaps most memorably in David Cronenberg’s Videodrome. It’s one of my favorite films and he’s a big part of what makes it great (I mean, alongside Debbie Harry and a really weird TV set). But alas, in real life he’s a lot more creepy than charming, an obsessive right-wing Obama-hater (with a girlfriend more than forty years his junior) who spent years attacking the now-ex-President on Twitter.
Now, in the age of Trump, he’s moved on from Obama. For the most part.
But he can’t seem to let go of Hillary Clinton. Even today, nearly six months after she lost the election and 95 days into Trumps’ regime, Woods’ Twitter is filled with bizarre attacks on Hillary.
If you haven’t looked in on Woods’ Twitter before, you may be a bit surprised just how unhinged many of his political tweets are, rife with conspiratorial thinking (he was one of the #Pizzagate believers) and weird racist digs.
Here he is calling former Obama national security adviser Susan Rice a “savage” and demanding her arrest.
Are these savages finally going to prison? Wondered why #Dems were concocting all this Russian crap. #SmokeScreen https://t.co/eJ4PGBk8gG

Meanwhile, his assorted tweets about Sen. Elizabeth Warren — or as he likes to call her, Princess Fauxcahontas — inevitably reference her American Indian blood in the crudest (and most hackneyed) possible ways.
We go after many scalps, #PrincessFauxcahontas #StrategyForDummies https://t.co/eaGlO0PvJ0

This is simple, folks. In the immortal words of the Great Warrior Princess #ElizabethWarren, "You pass gas, you get Tomahawk!"

It’s safe to say he hates Democrats generally.

He really, really doesn’t like abortion, or Planned Parenthood president Cecile Richards.
This Satanic fetal organ harvester is going to take the moral high ground??!! You got some balls, Lady. Oh, wait… https://t.co/PJFimkwQ70

And he has one of the most, er, creative takes on the whole O’Reilly thing I’ve seen.
The simple truth is that the @oreillyfactor purge was simple out and out age discrimination.

He still throws in the occasional anti-Obama tweet, for old times sake.

And he’s got a lingering obsession with Susan Rice that is too tedious to even bother to document here.
But his greatest nemesis, at least for now, remains Hillary. Or, as he prefers to call her, The Hildebeest, or “Darth Vader in drag.”

Watching the #SorosVermin rampaging makes the #ClintonCollapse even more important. We now realize her election would have been Armageddon.

Woods, who famously sued a Twitter user who called him a “cocaine addict,” frequently suggests, none-too-subtly, that Hillary is a raging alcoholic.

He even manages to work cat and rabbit gifs into his anti-Hillary fantasies.
If the rabbit were drunk at noon and the cat were an orange calico, you could almost see Hillary and Trump in this…pic.twitter.com/jny1xg0upf

Really, dude? You see a gif of a kitten bopping a baby bunny and the first thing you think is, “ha ha, that reminds me of Hillary Clinton, who by the way is a total drunk!”
If I may quote the famous Hollywood actor James Woods, “stop talking.”
