Donald Trump won a landslide victory that proved the polls and the pundits wrong.
Trump’s win set off a tidal wave of misery and hysteria in ultra-leftist Hollywood.
And a famous actress had this reaction to Trump’s victory that no one saw coming.
Trump’s quiet support in Hollywood
Donald Trump’s decisive win in both the Electoral College and the popular vote proved once and for all the MAGA movement is the majority in America.
And a funny thing happened in the aftermath.
Americans that were previously afraid to show their support for Trump in public out of fear of getting canceled ended their self-censorship.
One of those quiet Trump supporters who was quiet no more was actress Justine Bateman.
Bateman rose to fame playing Mallory Keaton on the popular 1980s NBC sitcom Family Ties.
A trend on social media following Trump’s win was leftists posting videos of themselves shouting into their camera phones their distress over Trump’s victory.
Everyone realized Bateman was secretly a Trump supporter this whole time when she began posting sarcastic critiques of the video as if she were a director trying to arrange the perfect shot.

– Interesting script wherein the main character has found that her “Magic Cat” has stopped working. It has stopped giving her answers and wisdom. She speaks to now recalcitrant Magic Cat, who sits out of frame.
“What’s wrong, honey?”
“Meow.”

Bateman explains her social media activity to Jesse Watters
Bateman told Fox News host Jesse Watters she was thrilled at Trump’s victory as the dagger through the heart of the woke regime that stifled free speech and free expression in America.
“What I’m really excited about is that the political correctness, the sort of woke era is over. When Trump won the presidency again, that cut that momentum off. So this whole woke era is over,” Bateman wrote.
Bateman said the movement to crush woke began when Elon Musk bought Twitter, fired all the censors, and turned it into X.
“It’s a spiritual shift. It started when Elon Musk bought Twitter and turned it into X and it really changed when Donald Trump won this presidency. I can feel it,” Bateman added.
Bateman called the last four years “depressing,” as the woke mob imposed authoritarian speech and behavioral codes on America where anyone who stepped out of line faced cancellation.
“For the last four years, very acutely, and I know it preceded these four years as well, but there’s been kind of a pressing down. A pressing down and kind of limiting what people can say,” Bateman added.
Bateman said the woke mentality repressed creative expression in arts and media.
Directors and producers cared more about making sure they hit DEI casting quotas and their films and television series conveyed the right political massaging as opposed to just producing quality art.
Now that Trump won, Americans were free to say and think what they want again, which Bateman believes will allow artists like herself to produce their content without fear of professional retribution.
“And what happens too is you limit what can even occur in society. And so there’s been a stagnation. Things haven’t been moving forward in the arts, in philosophy, in politics, in medicine, in anything. And now that’s changed. And that’s what I’m really excited about. I’ve been waiting for this moment for a long time,” Bateman concluded.
