In a year that he would like to forget, which included his acrimonious divorce to Amber Heard, Johnny Depp appeared at a Q&A at the new Cinemageddon stage at Glastonbury.
Introducing his 2004 film The Libertine, about a 17th-century poet who notoriously drank himself to an early death, the 54-year-old chose to discuss American politics.
"I think [Donald] Trump needs help," he said. "There are a lot of dark places he could go."
He added: "I'm not insinuating anything - by the way this will be in the press and it will be horrible - but when was the last time an actor assassinated a president?"(continued)

That was my first thought too - when was the last time a member of the military shot and killed an actor?
Why don’t you go home and beat your wife, you silly tough guy.
The last time an actor assassinated a president was probably Lincoln by Booth in 1865.
However, the last time an actor “assassinated/killed” a movie with bad acting was last week, and the week before, ad nauseum.
The hollywood actors are not the stupid people, those who pay to see the actors are the stupid people.
I refuse to see his movies in the theaters. If it looks good (like Black Mass), I’ll wait till its on Redbox for $1 or on TV for free.
I honestly can’t believe the man said that.
I hope he gets a little visit, if you know what I mean.
When Ronald Reagan was running for governor of California against then-Gov. Pat Brown (father of Moonbeam), Governor Brown actually ran a TV ad that featured him talking to a small child, saying, “It was an actor who killed Lincoln, you know.”
I guess its difficult, being an aging movie actor watching things slip down the tubes...
Relax and have some wine, Johnny.
Interesting how he seems to have a British-ish accent, yet he was born in Kentucky and raised in Florida...
Phony!!!
Apparently Johnny Depp wants a death penalty for presidents he doesn’t like.
But when it comes to justice for murdering thugs, he’s against the death penalty—
what an idiot.
Who cares what these a-holes say. I wish everyone would ignore them
Is it me, or is he starting to look like Keith Richards?
Let me introduce you to the next celebrity suicide/drug overdose.
Hey Johnny, let’s talk about actors being assassinated....wouldn’t that be funny or would it worry you?
1865. Because Depp would be too dumb to know the answer to his own question.
Wow! You’re quick. Now, when was the last time an actor, elected president was shot? Get this right and you go on to the lightning round!
“Fully 25% of all assassinated president ps were killed by actors”
Great point. Perhaps we should ban actors or at least have serious controls placed upon them.
This is the same Johnny Depp whose last wife, Amber Heard, accused him of domestic violence, right? The Secret Service needs to pay him a little visit.
