Jeff Daniels to Stephen Colbert: America Needs Someone Who Can Punch Trump in the Face |
2019-08-01 |
[BREITBART] Actor Jeff Daniels appeared on The Late Show Tuesday evening and said that President Donald Trump ...His ancestors didn't own any slaves... ’s challenger needs to be somebody who can "punch him in the face." Daniels, who stars as Atticus Finch in Broadway’s To Kill A Mockingbird, said America needs to "do better" and expressed hope that President Trump’s challenger will be someone who can "punch him in the face." "You know, I ‐ whittle it down, but we need somebody that can take this guy on, that can punch him in the face," he said. Colbert sparked Daniels’ answer after talking about the play and how it is "about different people in the same community reacting to accusations of ‐ of violence and ‐ and essentially racial profiling and how ‐ how racism is dividing the people in this town." "Given, say, the last three weeks where Donald Trump’s racism has become more overt in his attacks on various politicians and communities around the United States‐ does that change the tone of the ‐ the audience when they come in?" Colbert asked. " Do you think that changes what they get from the play or what they’re looking for?" |

#14 After watching Jeff Daniels in "Super Sucker", I will watch Jeff Daniels movies no more forever. Not to slight Mr. Daniels manhood, but I can't imagine him punching a cat, much less the President of the United States. |

#13 The more these half men talk about Trump being a racist as if it's fact and not opinion, the more people they drive away from voting for whatever soft-core bolshevik anti-Christian bigot the Dems will ultimately nominate for president. |

#11 Sometimes screenplays provide an actor with clever dialogue and deep thoughts and the idiots of the world (many actors included) mistake this for the actor actually being clever or deep when tend to be hired because they can fake that intelligence. |

#10 “Acting is the most minor of gifts and not a very high-class way to earn a living. After all, Shirley Temple could do it at the age of four.” “Acting is the perfect idiot’s profession.” “It’s a business you go into because you’re an egocentric. It’s a very embarrassing profession.” – Katharine Hepburn |

#9 Makes me wanna stay away from Hollywood and Broadway. Be careful, Jeff. Some people hit back. You gonna call Trump a racist when you see yourself in his next Tweet? Wonder what'll happen to your box office then? |

#7 Why do we care what celebrities say? All they have is a talent for pretending to be someone else, while reciting words that someone else wrote. |
