For Donald Trump, the entertainment world has turned out to be much harder to win over than likely voters.
While the GOP nominee has some enthusiastic endorsements from celebrities, dozens more are adamantly against him. More than 70,000 people — including stars like Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin, Harry Belafonte, and Roseanne Barr — have signed a #StopHateDumpTrump online petition against the businessman.
Even Donald Trump's former coproducer on "The Apprentice," Mark Burnett, while refusing to release unaired footage of the candidate, has clarified that he is "NOT pro-Trump" and rejects the "hatred, division, and misogyny" of the campaign.
And in the aftermath of Trump's recent scandals — including a vulgar "Access Hollywood" video from 2005 and numerous allegations of sexual assault — stars are continuing to condemn him.
Here are 41 other celebrities, from Jennifer Lawrence to Louis C.K., who are standing against Trump with strong public statements:

At this year's MIT commencement ceremony, Damon expressed a fascination for a theory that states we are living in a simulated reality created by more intelligent forms of life. He then asked: "If there are multiple simulations, how come we have to be in the one where Donald Trump becomes the Republican nominee for president? Can we, like, transfer to a different one?"
George Clooney
The actor spoke out against Trump in an interview with The Guardian, calling him a "xenophobic fascist." He added: "In election season, things go crazy, and the loudest voices are the furthest and most extreme."
