Actor Ron Perlman has declared America a “shithole countryโ with a “diseased” population.
“Americans under Donald Trump have been banned from entering into Europe,” Perlman said, “In 3 short years this reality show clown has turned us into a ‘Shithole Country,'” the Sons of Anarchy star said at the time.
In an appearance on SiriusXM’s The Dean Obeidallah Show, Perlman described it as “sick and twisted” that a significant part of the population supports President Donald Trump.
“The sick and twisted part of it all is that he’s managed to resonate in a sector of this country,” he said. “It blows my mind that anybody could listen to this guy for one fucking second.”
The 74-year-old actor also suggested Trump was destined for hell because of his response to the Covid pandemic.
“If you go to hell, I don’t know a better way to get there than the way this guy has comported himself during this horrifically tragic event,” Perlman added.
Since the onset of the Trump presidency back in 2017, Ron Perlman has gained a reputation for his venomous rants against the president and Trump’s supporters, at one point describing the GOP as the party of the Ku Klux Klan.
“Hey Kevin McCarthy! Ted Cruz! Steve Scalise! How dare you suddenly start condemning the Nazi that is Steve King when you’ve been cheering him on for his entire embarrassing career! You are the KKK party. Own it muthafuckas! And one more thingโฆFUCK YOU!” Ron Perlman said.
The Klan, originally formed in Tennessee by Confederate Army veterans, has been much more associated with the Democratic Party than the Republican Party throughout its various iterations.
In 2008, Barack Obama was endorsed by West Virginia Democrat Robert Byrd, himself a former Klan leader. Hillary Clinton also had a political relationship with Byrd.
Hugo Black, a Supreme Court justice and Democrat nominated by Franklin Roosevelt, was also a former Klan member.
