Donald Trump calls out Morgan Freeman’s shocking confession ‘He may be a little racist when fans bring up the actor’s early firing based on race and Black History Month’

Morgan Freeman is “extremely interested” in the way forward for the country as hundreds of thousands of votes have already been forged in the presidential race.

With just over two weeks until the Nov. 5 election, Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris and the Republican candidate charged with unseating former President Donald J. Trump are deadlocked in the race for the White House, recent polls show. Freeman, 87, and several other stars showed their support for Harris.

The legendary actor attended the Democratic National Convention in August, where he narrated a nearly 10-minute introductory video before Harris’ acceptance speech for the party’s nomination. Freeman also supported Hilary Clinton at the DNC as she narrated an 11-minute autobiographical film chronicling her life and political profession.

“You really want a woman president, don’t you?” Jimmy Kimmel asked when the actor appeared on his October 17 late-night show. “I really do. Yes,” Freeman joked matter-of-factly.

Considering that the Oscar winner has experienced many monumental moments in history since his birth in 1937, the host couldn’t help but ask: “Do you feel like this is a more difficult time than any of those (decades)?” Is it higher?” The “Shawshank Redemption” star had a bleak perspective that explained why he wants significant change in the country’s leadership.

“I think, honestly, we’re living in the most dangerous times since we were attacked in 1941,” the actor said, referring to the Japanese attack on the U.S. fleet at Pearl Harbor two years after the end of World War II.

The current election cycle, issues of ladies’s reproductive rights, criminal justice reform and economic and foreign policy have been areas of division amongst voters. Due to Trump’s alleged incitement of an rebellion in the nation’s capital on January 6, 2021, concerns were also expressed that the businessman could overthrow democracy in favor of dictatorship.

According to Freeman, it is time for America to try something recent. “Don’t think I’m, you recognize, racist or anything like that. “I’m not… well, maybe to some extent, but I think, you know, it’s time for us to move on from the old white men running the country,” he said.

The audience responded with thunderous applause, but on Instagram, where a clip of his statements was shared by the “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” account, others expressed doubts about his position.

“Isn’t this the same one who said we should stop talking about race,” one user wrote. A second like-minded person commented: “Fascinating, he used to say that racism lives on because we keep talking about it. Suddenly…race matters.

Earlier this 12 months, Freeman faced heavy criticism online when a clip surfaced of him telling then-CNN anchor Don Lemon that race was not a consider profession advancement in the US. The senior also took offense when his comments were brought up about his opposition to Black History Month and his disdain for being identified as an African American moderately than simply an American.

At least one person agreed with Freeman, who wrote: “I’ve been saying this for years! We need to stop electing old, entitled, white men!” Fans were previously misled into believing the seasoned talent endorsed Trump when he retweeted claims that he believed the convicted felon was “good for the country.” The actor’s representative quickly denied this disinformation.
