Vince44 205 Posted February 13 https://deadline.com/2025/02/richard-gere-donald-trump-goya-awards-speech-1236283411/ Accepting a lifetime achievement honor at Spain’s Goya Awards this weekend, Richard Gere had some choice words about the state of things in the U.S. amid Donald Trump‘s second term in office. “We’re in a very dark place in America where we have a bully and a thug who’s the President of the United States,” the actor and producer said from the stage inside Granada’s Palacio de Congresos. He’d begun his acknowledgements expressing gratitude for being a part of the “world of telling stories” and recognizing the “thousands of people it takes to make a movie.” The Officer and a Gentleman, Pretty Woman and Chicago star then continued, “We’re all part of a universe of overlapping pain and sadness and joy and expectations and dreams and hopes and visions. And I see this world that we’re in now forgetting that, and this kind of very foolish tribalism is starting to take us over, where we think we’re all separate from each other, and we have unfortunately elected officials that don’t inspire us in the way we want to be inspired.” 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seafoam1 2,799 Posted February 13 "A very dark place". Anyone feeling that? I mean, what is the focking actual point of saying garbage like that? We have 15+ TDS infected on this site alone and this guy Vince44 feels the need to point out another TDS infected liberal in the world. A Hollywood queen no less. Shocking I tell you.

Isn't that usually the cycle of politics. Liberal til you get a job and have to support yourself. Conservative until after you retire and the real aging sets in 10+ years after that. Then liberal-ish in your dying years. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I have a huge problem with the way undocumented people are being persecuted. I think there is a bigotry, fear and ugliness out there currently that is very much un-American IMO. Same with how trans folks are being treated though that’s a much smaller group of people. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
