Campos-Duffy to Schwarzenegger: 'I was born free ... not waiting for a bodybuilder to tell me what to do'
Fox News ^ | 8/12/21 | By Charles Creitz

Former California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger received blowback for pointed remarks he made directed at critics of government-imposed coronavirus restrictions as he called mask-averse Americans "schmucks" and said "screw your freedom" to those who seek to terminate COVID mandates.

On "Fox News Primetime" Thursday, Fox Nation host Rachel Campos-Duffy addressed the "Terminator star, saying he should leave individual decisions up to the individuals.

"Can I say, with Arnold Schwarzenegger, I was born free," she said. "I'm not waiting for [Dr. Anthony] Fauci or some bodybuilder to tell me what I can and can't do."

Campos-Duffy said parents like herself are tired of "co-parenting with the government and the unions" when it comes to edicts like masking up youth in public schools.

In his remarks earlier this week, Schwarzenegger defended Fauci, saying that he is a 50-year "expert on how to build a bicep" the same way the 80-year-old NIAID director has been an expert on viruses.

Arnold’s father was literally a nazi.

So the nut doesn’t fall far from the tree.

Arnold turned out to be one of the primary Assistant Democrats shortly after the recall made him our Governor.
We bought a pig in a poke, so to speak.

I always presumed he was goaded into acting this way due to influence of his then wife, Maria, she of the Kennedy family. Ted K. was alive back then. I’m sure he lobbied Arnold for a certain bias

Shut up, Ahhhnold. No one cares what you or any other Hollywood celeb says about this.

Americans can deal with this on our own, without foreign input.

Arnold turned out to be one of the primary Assistant Democrats shortly after the recall made him our Governor. We bought a pig in a poke, so to speak.

I remember at the end of Arnold's time there was a gubernatorial race in CA and I was there on business sitting in a bar having a beer and overheard two guys with the following exchange:

Barfly 1: Dude, Arnold f##### this state up so bad!
Barfly 2: That's what you get with a conservative. We'll never elect another!

Arnold governed to the left and failed. The sheep said 'see, conservatism fails' and voted for people MORE to the left and failed harder and harder and harder. But I knew when that conversation was going down that Arnold had destoroyed the GOP in california ironically by governing like a democrat.

Arnold’s last wife couldn’t trust him, why should we?

With ahnold, its a cultural thing

hes got that german/auatrian background

you obey the state over there, you obey authority

its drilled in from kindergarten onward

what he doesn’t realize because he’s still a foreign born immigrant, is that the usa is not germany/austria

and we’ve had plenty of problems with some of the german crapcthat has integrated into our country

namely the cases where people demand blind obedience to authority

Rachel became famous, as did her husband, being on an MTV reality show! They he was a Congressman, and quit, I assume to hurt the GOP and Trump.

Yes. Your last sentence says it all.
“He destroyed the GOP in Ca. by governing like a democrat!”
That terrible irony most don’t admit to seeing.

And without celebrity worship, where would he be? I for one haven’t given him so much as a penny.
