Actor Morgan Freeman Asks To Curse During Interview Then Proceeds To Attack President Trump


Another actor has Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Actor Morgan Freeman, during an interview, asked MS NOW host Lawrence O’Donnell if he could curse, then proceeded to attack President Trump.

Freeman claimed Trump was turning the country into a sh*thole and continued to call Trump a felon.

Yahoo News provided quotes from Freeman’s interview:

Sitting across from Lawrence O’Donnell on MS NOW’s The Last Word, the 88-year-old actor — the voice that has narrated penguins, presidents, and the literal Almighty — paused mid-thought and asked a question nobody in that room was expecting.

“Can I use any profanity?”

O’Donnell told him he could say whatever he wanted. Freeman didn’t hesitate.

“We have somebody sitting in the White House who’s leading us down a sh*thole,” he said. “I can’t personally understand how a convicted felon — convicted — 34 felonious… is that a word? Counts of wrongdoing gets to be president. How do you do that?”

He wasn’t reading a teleprompter. He was working through it in real time, searching for the right word mid-sentence — “felonious… is that a word?” — and that rawness made it land harder than any rehearsed monologue could.

Freeman isn’t the only actor to have strong words towards President Trump in recent days.

Actor Robert De Niro also called out Trump during a Democrat hosted event during the State of the Union.

USA Today reported more on the actor’s remarks:

While headlining a counter program to the State of the Union address on Tuesday, Feb. 24, Robert De Niro gave an emotional plea to Americans to mobilize against President Donald Trump in the upcoming midterm election.

“I feel betrayed by my country,” he said during the “State of the Swamp” at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C., on Feb. 24. “It doesn’t have to be perfect, but it does need to return to the values that gave us our strength and humanity.”

Taking place just over a mile from Trump’s union address inside the U.S. Capitol Building, the “State of the Swamp” welcomed names like “Avengers” alum Mark Ruffalo and author Marianne Williamson.

De Niro said in his Tuesday speech that mobility is required to keep leaders accountable during the Trump administration. “If you’re devoted to the Constitution and the rule of law, if you want the United States of America to be worthy of your love, be ready to take the streets together, and we will take our country back,” the actor added.
