Kristy Swanson Wants To Be Edited Out Of Her Movies If Trump Is Removed From 'Home Alone 2'—And Twitter Is On Board With That

Kristy Swanson Wants To Be Edited Out Of Her Movies If Trump Is Removed From 'Home Alone 2'—And Twitter Is On Board With That

Following the insurrection at the Capitol, Macaulay Culkin has spearheaded a petition to have Donald Trump removed from Home Alone 2: Lost In New York, to match the backlash Trump now faces from the internet at large.

Former movie actress Kristy Swanson—best known for her role as Buffy in the original Buffy The Vampire Slayer film—is a fervent Trump supporter. Her response to Culkin was to request that she, too, be removed from her appearances in John Hughes films.


Swanson had minor roles in several other movies.

Twitter's response?

Sure, okay.





Swanson's roles in both Pretty In Pink—where she played Duckette—and Ferris Bueller's Day Off—where she played a student who tells the teacher Ferris is sick—amounted to the same amount of screen time as a credited extra, so CGI could easily remove her from those films without having any effect on the movie.





Swanson and fellow conservative actor Dean Cain claim to have already been on the chopping block of "cancel culture" before, after a joint production entitled FBI Lovebirds: Undercovers—known to the pair as an "Obamagate" project—was denounced by the public at large.





Needless to say, Swanson's absence from those films would be of little consequence.

In 24 hours, Donald Trump will no longer be President, and Kristy Swanson will fade into the background of our minds, where she has been the rest of our lives anyway.

MAGA Rep. Dragged After Claiming Bad Bunny's Halftime Show Depicted 'Gay Pornography'

Tennessee Republican Representative Andy Ogles was widely mocked after he claimed Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show was "pure smut" that depicted "gay pornography"—even going so far as to write a letter to the Energy and Commerce Committee demanding "a formal congressional inquiry" into the "indecent broadcast."

The rapper, whose real name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, delivered a largely Spanish-language show that has been hailed as a "love letter to Puerto Rico" and that drew from his latest album, Debí Tirar Más Fotos, which won the Grammy for Album of the Year just a week ago.
