Julie Plec, producer of The Vampire Diaries and The Originals, is catching heat from actor James Woods for a tweet regarding a collision between a train carrying several republican politicians and a garbage truck. The tweet, which was deleted after news of a fatality surfaced, read: "A train full of republicans runs into a truck full of garbage and the garbage says... (Instert punchline here)." Woods has reposted Plec's tweet (at least) three times and Plec's mentions are flooded with right-wing outrage.
