Donald Trump Boycotts Star Wars Over New Planet Name

What’s got Trump’s hair on end? The FRENCH! Just kidding… sorta. Here’s some background: A French toy site recently leaked the names of several Lego playsets based on Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Within the bulleted list of expected fare, there was a mention of a set based on the “Battle on Takodana.”

“Takodana” seems to be the name of a never-before-seen planet from the upcoming Star Wars sequel. Speculation is rampant it may be the snow planet where Kylo Ren likes to go for long walks in the woods. Yep, the very same planetoid where the First Order’s quaint chalet “Starkiller” is located!

| “Over the river and through the woods…” |
As winter wonderland-y as that sounds, not everyone is excited by the sound of “Takodana” being a major player in an American film of such magnitude.

| “JJ, you’re fired!” |
Donald J. Trump has withdrawn all support for all things Star Wars, including and not limited to the upcoming films, the spinoff films, the potential new rides at Disney theme parks — even George Lucas’ new museum in Chicago. All because of “Takodana.”
Listen we have enough border issues on Earth. So do we really need a planet of taco eaters and potential rapists on the loose throughout the Star Wars galaxy? YO NO QUIERO TACO BELL OR TACO DANAS!

When pressed about his comments, Trump backpedaled and claimed that not all “Taco Damerons” were necessarily rapists per se, but they do all have a higher propensity for “getting loco” as the GOP front-runner put it.

Trump also believes “hyper-liberal” director JJ Abrams is intentionally hiding this “border land of a planet” and confusing fans by using three different names for the same planet: Tatooine, Jakku, or Takodana.
