President Donald Trump and Bedside Sailors movie (1976)his week of executive orders did not go unnoticed at the 2017 Screen Actors Guild awards this Sunday.

"I am the winner. The winner is me. Landslide."
Via GiphyBut her joke only set the stage for her to get personal about the executive order President Trump signed on Friday, which drastically cuts the number of refugees the U.S. will accept and bars citizens of seven Islamic-majority countries from entering America.
"I want you all to know that I'm the daughter of an immigrant," Dreyfus said. "My father fled religious persecution in Nazi-occupied France. I'm an American patriot [and I] love this country. Because I love this country, I am horrified by its blemishes and this immigrant ban is a blemish and it's un-American."
The gathered actors applauded her strong take against Trump's measures. She then read a statement from the Writer's Guild of America, noting she agreed with it.
"Our guilds are unions of storytellers who have always welcomed those from the nations of varying beliefs with just you share their creativity with America," she read. "We are grateful for them. We stand with them and we will fight for them. Thank you very much. Thank you."
