Film actor and former Republican governor of California, Arnold Schwarzenegger, supported Democratic candidate Kamala Harris for president of the United States this Wednesday (30). He said, “I will always be an American before I am a Republican.”
The “Terminator” star said he was offended by Republicans who refused to admit that Donald Trump lost the 2020 election and the Republican candidate’s talk that America was “like a trash can for the rest of the world.” ”
As governor, Schwarzenegger said, he learned to “love politics and hate politics” and added: “I hate politics more than ever.”
He also said “I don’t like either party right now,” arguing that neither would address budget deficits, and that some Democrats’ policies were leading to rising crime.
“I want to hang up,” wrote Schwarzenegger. “But I can’t.”
“Because rejecting the results of an election is as un-American as it gets.” Calling America “a trash can for the world is so unpatriotic, it makes me furious,” he added.
“And I will always be an American before I am a Republican,” Schwarzenegger said. “That’s why, this week, I’m voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.”
Trump made the “trash can” comment when criticizing the Biden/Harris administration’s handling of the US-Mexico border, saying law enforcement is so lax that other countries can “dump people they don’t want” into the United States.
Schwarzenegger immigrated to the U.S. from Austria and built a successful career before starring in 1980s mega-hits such as “Conan the Barbarian,” “The Terminator” and “Predator.” He was governor of California from 2003 to 2011.
