AceShowbiz - Donald Trump is not afraid of celebrities leaving the country if he gets elected as U.S. president. In fact, the Republican presidential frontrunner even wants to throw them out and thinks that it would be a great service to the country.
Trump was asked to respond to Lena Dunham's threats to move to Canada. "Well, she's a B-actor and has no mojo," Trump said at "Fox & Friends" conference on Tuesday, April 26. "I heard Whoopi Goldberg said that too - that would be a great, great thing for our country if she got out."
He did not stop there. "Now I have to get elected because I'll be doing a great service to our country. Now it's much more important. In fact, I'll immediately get off this call and start campaigning right now," he said, adding "We'll get rid of Rosie [O'Donnell too]. Oh, I love it."
Dunham has been very vocal about fleeing out of the States and the "Girls" star made her destination clear on Monday when attending the Matrix Awards in NYC. "I know a lot of people have been threatening to do this, but I really will. I know a lovely place in Vancouver and I can get my work done from there," the 29-year-old actress said.
Meanwhile, Goldberg revealed her intentions back in January when she was discussing Trump's view about the Mexicans and Muslims with her "The View" co-hosts. "Maybe it's time for me to move. I can afford to go," she said. "I've always been an American, and this has always been my country and we've always been able to have discussions. And suddenly now it's turning into not them, not them."
Other celebrities who have expressed similar plan are Cher, Eddie Griffin, Barry Diller, Al Sharpton, Jon Stewart and Samuel L. Jackson .
