As the US and the rest of the world begin to reckon with Donald Trump‘s reelection into the White House as the 47th President of the United States, Christina Applegate is making her outrage against the results crystal clear.

On X, the Dead to Me star isn’t shying away from showing how disappointed she is over Kamala Harris‘ defeat.

“Please unfollow me if you voted against female rights. Against disability rights. Yeah, that,” the actress, who had been open about her battle with MS since 2021, wrote. “Unfollow me because what you did is unreal. Don’t want followers like this. So yeah. Done.”

In fact, in addition to not wanting any Trump voters to support her, Applegate seems ready to abandon social media altogether. “Also after today, I will be shutting down this fan account that I have had for so many years because this is sick,” she continued.

Prior to the election results being finalized, Applegate, who’s a mom to 13-year-old daughter Sadie Grace LeNoble, already showed her frustration.

“Why? Give me your reasons why?????” she wrote on X. “My child is sobbing because her rights as a woman may be taken away. Why? And if you disagree, please unfollow me.”

In her replies, many of her followers are fighting back against her stance.

“Done,” one user wrote, hinting that they’ve already unfollowed the actress. “I have a severely disabled kid, I’m a woman, and you’re woefully misinformed. Good luck.” Applegate then went on to respond. “Bye. And sorry. See ya on the other side,” she wrote. “I’m sure I will have a better seat.”

“The problem is women can’t think straight one week out of the month and that’s not good for a president and the American people know that,” wrote another user, who seemingly thinks that Harris couldn’t be president because, well, she has a menstrual cycle. “Are you f— kidding me?” Applegate replied in outrage. “Get on the phone now. Give me your number!!!”

“I genuinely have no idea who you are, but Harris has no one to blame for her loss but herself,” another user wrote in her replies. “You’re just whining. Get over it,” they continued, signing off as “a disabled person.” “Oh, I’m whining??? Really,” Applegate responded. “If you don’t know who I am yet you follow me then f– off. I am disabled. Every day of my life is hard.”

Sadly for Applegate, it seems most of her replies, and likely her followers, are siding against her in this election. But while she may be feeling attacked right now, we’re applauding her for speaking her truth and sticking to her values.
