B.C. born actor Seth Rogen is using his celebrity status to try and get a message through to President Donald Trump.
Rogen noticed on Thursday that Donald Trump Jr. follows him on Twitter, which means the actor has the ability to direct message the president’s son.
Yo! @DonaldJTrumpJr! I noticed you follow me on Twitter. Please ask your dad to resign before he destroys the planet. Thanks dude.

That’s exactly what he did on Thursday, sending three direct messages to Trump Jr. in the span of six hours and publishing the screenshots for the world to see.

After sending the first one just after 10 a.m. and receiving no response from Trump Jr., Rogen sent the second message shortly before noon.

After more silence from the president’s son, Rogen sent one last message his way around 4:30 p.m.

At the time that Rogen published screenshots of the messages, there was no response from Trump Jr., but there hasn’t been an update from Rogen since Thursday evening.
Trump Jr. and his brother, Eric Trump, will be in Rogen’s hometown of Vancouver later this month for the grand opening of Trump International Hotel and Tower in the city’s downtown core.
