It’s like the last four years never happened. Donald Trump is back to griping about one of the things he seems to care about most: How much he hates Hollywood. In a statement released on Tuesday, two days after the Oscars, the former president celebrated the Academy Awards’ low TV ratings, which he put down to the event’s “ridiculous” formula, Democrat-leaning hosts, political correctness and decision to forgo its formal name for the “less important and elegant name” of “the Oscars.” Obsessing over the Oscars has always been a favorite pastime of Trump’s—as has attacking celebs he hates, from “washed up psycho” Bette Midler, to “very low IQ” Robert de Niro, to cheating “dog” Kristen Stewart, “over-rated” Meryl Streep, and “boring” Samuel. L. Jackson.
