The only thing is, he had been doing this from the beginning. He should have been banned in2016.SAG-AFTRA this weekend voted to permanently bar former President Trump from readmittance to the union after he resigned last week.
President Gabrielle Carteris said in a statement Sunday that the union’s national board passed the resolution during a Zoom video conference.
“Preventing Donald Trump from ever rejoining SAG-AFTRA is more than a symbolic step,” Carteris said. “It is a resounding statement that threatening or inciting harm against fellow members will not be tolerated. An attack against one is an attack against all.”
The union, whose members include actors and journalists, first announced it would initiate disciplinary hearings against Trump in mid-January, accusing him of inciting the deadly Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol and endangering members of the news media.
“Donald Trump attacked the values that this union holds most sacred – democracy, truth, respect for our fellow Americans of all races and faiths, and the sanctity of the free press,” Carteris said at the time. “There’s a straight line from his wanton disregard for the truth to the attacks on journalists perpetrated by his followers."
