McCormack tweeted at The Hollywood Reporter last week calling for it to report the identities of those attending a Beverly Hills fundraiser “so the rest of us can be clear about who we don’t wanna work with.”

Actress Debra Messing also asked for a printed list of all attendees of the fundraiser, saying that “the public has a right to know.” She retweeted McCormack's post on Wednesday and said, "I couldn't have said it better."

McCormack as well as Messing have received backlash for their posts, including from “The View” host Whoopi Goldberg Whoopi GoldbergMeghan McCain says she believes report Trump called fallen soldiers 'losers' On The Money: Treasury, SBA to disclose small business loans of 0K and above | Apple closes stores in states with spikes in coronavirus cases | Artists call on Congress to help club and concert venues during pandemic Artists join call to Congress to help club and concert venues during pandemic MORE, who compared the proposed list to a blacklist.

“Your idea of who you don't want to work with is your personal business,” Goldberg said. “Do not encourage people to print out lists because the next list that comes out, your name will be on and then people will be coming after you.”

Trump fired back at Messing over the weekend, saying that she “thanked” him when they had previously met.
