In an interview on "The View," actor Patrick Stewart said he is applying to become a U.S. citizen in order to help fight back against President Trump.
While recounting a recent visit to Washington D.C., Stewart said he had "the worst night's sleep for years and years and years," joking that President Trump might have been to blame.
Stewart referenced his tweet to "The View" hosts, calling it “fairly innocent,” and saying he “did not directly insult your president."
“Not mine,” Whoopi Goldberg said in response. When host Joy Behar asked if the English actor would be willing to take Trump off American’s hands, Stewart joked, “We have our own problems."
“I’m not a [U.S.] citizen,” Stewart said. “However, there is, maybe it’s the only good thing, as the result of this election: I am now applying for citizenship. Because I want to be an American too.”
“All of my friends in Washington said, ‘There is one thing you can do. Fight, fight, oppose, oppose,’” Stewart said.
Expressing animosity towards the United States, or the desire to disrupt or attempting to overthrow the duly elected government is immediate grounds to deny citizenship. Period.
not my captain kirk.
acting must rot the brain
William Shatner was CAPTAIN KIRK; this BRIT POS, DAMNED “LUVIE” ( Brit term for far lefty actors P) was Jean-Luc Picard, who was, more often than not, a stupid sissy.
Let’s see.....do the view.... attack Trump....
apply for citizenship.... roles drying up Patrick?...trolling for attention?....pathetic!
nearly 200 episodes, only bagged one chick, and she was humanoid. kirk did that before lunch — with green chicks, robots, and women wearing tin foil and from another time.
He thinks so little of his country that he would give up his citizenship for a cheap, political stunt? What a putz.
Being 76 years old, Patrick knows he is limited in likely roles a director would consider him for. Maybe he is fishing around for his next career. A lot of billionaires, and a lot of 70 year old people are suddenly wanting to replicate Donald’s success.
Cancel his visa.
What does he want to “fight” Trump about? Making American Great Again? Does he support ISIS? Does he want Americans to pay MORE tax?
the faggy french name was all I really needed to hear to give up on him. then he turned the crew of the enterprise into intergalactic social workers.
kirk woulda wasted half the critters and interstellar pains-in-the-ass that the bald french guy wanted to be facebook friends with. it was infuriating.
then we got the chick with the hair, who just wanted to go home.
ugh.
DENIED!
Make it so.
I don’t know who this idiot is but I think everyone will agree: Keep him out! We have too many hollywood libtard freaks already.
As an ORIGINAL STAR TREK fanatic, none of the others ever passed muster for me. Oh I watched some of each ( with less and less time given to giving then a look-see )and not a one of them were ever worth a damn.
Kirk was a ladies' man, a man's man ( in the old fashioned, NON-Queer way ), a true leader, and the stories were great, not to mention PRO-AMERICAN!
ery = very
He surrendered 5 minutes into the very first episode.
What nationality did he play on TNG?
Some brits just do not learn.
Kirk tapped Yeoman Rand five times a day.
Picard dipped his head in vegetable oil then stuck it in a bowling ball polisher.
