The West Hollywood City Council will consider a resolution Monday urging the Los Angeles City Council and the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce to strip President Trump’s star from the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
The council’s agenda item states the move was prompted by Trump’s “disturbing treatment of women and other actions that do not meet the shared values of the City of West Hollywood, the region, state, and country,” according to the Hollywood Reporter. Examples include the Trump administration’s position on immigration, climate change, and Russia’s attempts to interfere in the 2016 presidential election, a council report added.
The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce previously refused to take away Bill Cosby’s star over public backlash prompted by sexual misconduct allegations leveled at the actor and comedian, according to the magazine.
The Hollywood Walk of Fame, a popular tourist destination, has become a flash point for anti-Trump demonstrations, some of which turned violent in July.
Trump’s star, dedicated in 2007 for Trump’s role on NBC’s “The Apprentice,” has also been damaged by protesters, including last month by a man wielding a pickax.
