Trump talks about he is going to make Hollywood great again.

First, his problem with Hollywood is when South Korean film won the Best Picture Oscar, like Parasite.

Second, some of the A list of actors do not like Trump, like Robert DeNiro.

Third, most film historians believe 1939 was the greatest year in Hollywood.
Many of the great pictures on that list were written or directed or acted by immigrants or first-generation immigrants.
For example, Ninotchka was directed by the German-American Ernst Lubitsch and one of its three writers was the Austrian-American, Billy Wilder and starred Greta Garbo, a Swedish-American.

What Trump does not realize is that immigrants enrich the American experience.
