City of West Hollywood votes to permanently remove T-rump's star from "Walk of Fame"

Less than two weeks after being vandalized by a pick axe, Donald T-rump's "Star" on the Hollywood Walk of Fame was 'unanimously voted to be removed for good' by the West Hollywood City Council.

"The West Hollywood City Council did not pass the resolution because Donald Trump is a conservative or a Republican. Earning a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame is an honor. When one belittles and attacks minorities, immigrants, Muslims, people with disabilities or women -- the honor no longer exists," Mayor John Duran told CNN, adding the vote was 'symbolic'.

He continued, "Never have we intruded into our neighboring city's business like this. But the circumstances compelled us to make an exception to the rule."

The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce, which does have jurisdiction over the iconic tourist attraction, said there are no immediate plans to remove the star, adding that the WHCC has no jurisdiction over the Hollywood Walk of Fame. However, they are willing to take into consideration their recommendation to remove the star.

"Once we receive a communication from the City of West Hollywood, it will be referred to our Executive Committee for consideration at their next meeting. As of now, there are no plans to remove any stars from the Hollywood Walk of Fame," President Leron Gubler said.

Gubler had already explained back in July that each star on the HWOF is considered "a part of the historic fabric of the Hollywood Walk of Fame" and no stars have ever been removed.

T-rump's star was added in 2007, after his nomination was approved. T-rump himself, or someone on his team, did the nominating and later paid a $30,000 fee for 'creating and installing' the star once it was approved.
