Kevin Costner: 'Criminal' Trump ‘Spits on 200 Years of Freedom’
Dailypoliticalnewswire.com ^ | August 20, 2020 | Keely Sharp

Hollywood actor Kevin Costner is accusing President Donald Trump of being a "criminal" due to his refusal to throw BILLIONS of dollars in funding to the United States Postal Service (USPS).

“It’s terrible. It’s terrible,” Costner proclaimed during an interview with The Daily Beast. “Nothing is surreal. Everything is highly real, and it’s dangerous. And it’s shameful.”

The 65-year-old declared that Trump is breaking the law and undermining democracy. Funnily enough, he never specifies what law is being broken by the president. Perhaps because there isn't any.

"History will judge you," he said. "When you look back at [Joseph] McCarthy, when you look back at black-and-white footage and see people who were beating on those who were marching for freedom, you don’t want to be that person. And there’s a lot of people where, when you look back ten years, they’re going to see themselves."

Costner continued, "What you have to try to lean on is that every four years we get to decide whether we’re going in the right direction or we’re not. And we now, because of the way the country is set up, which is beautiful, we have that opportunity. And anyone who would interfere with that process in a deliberate way to have an outcome, that’s criminal. And it spits on 200 years of freedom."

Kevin Costner is Tom Hanks only with less talent and less brains.

That’s pretty much the way I see it.

I wonder if these complete idiots ever realized that if the left forces CWII upon us, that their life expectancy might be endangered.

And this danger might actually come from one of the ones they support, such as BLM or Antifa types. Leftist scum like this really will not care who they are killing, as long as they are getting the job done.

“Another actor whose movies I will not watch...”

The list is so long. There really isn’t anything that can be watched. I’ve resorted to watching reruns of Bewitched and old shows where the actors are all dead now. At least they can’t say stupid things anymore.

He needs to learn history....so he believes McCarthy was wrong? NO - he doesn’t - he only knows what he heard at ONE time..Same with any film he saw about the Civil Rights Days...

Idiot - yes!! We turned his new TV show on a few weeks ago and it lasted for 5 minutes - I told my husband to turn it off because of the language. He doesn’t hear well so it didn’t bother him but it sure did bother me.

These idiot liberals accept the propagandistic lies from the DNC media as gospel truth. Unfortunately Kevin Costner doesn’t have the mental horsepower or the historical perspective to know that he’s being lied to. So either he’s too dumb to know that he’s being played or he just wants to be played and this is an act.

And Woody Harrelson’s character, after being scared shitless, said, ‘You got one of those for me?’

Cosner and Beetlejuice have come out of the closet proclaiming they are smart people but they are pathetic and stupid. I retract my remarks. They want to work in Hollywood — old actors wanting to be STARS again. This is their method. They think they are smart and can flatter and fool Hollywood to take a chance on them again. But they demean themselves unmercifully... which is what Hollywood wants. Bow to the gravy train of tinsel town. These actors are bugs.

I think James Woods did too at some point but by then she was pegging 10 on the crazy axis of the hot crazy matrix.

“Yellowstone” is one of my favorites. Season 3 is on right now.

“I never knew Costner was such an idiot.”

He went to my high school. He’s the worst kind: a self important idiot.

“And there’s a lot of people where, when you look back ten years, they’re going to see themselves.”

He mentioned events in his dialog that happened over 50 years ago. If he goes back 10 years like he mentioned, he would be in the Obama time frame and Trump had nothing to do with it. Another idiot that displays the lack of accomplishments of Obama while falsely trying to blame Trump for their failure. The only question is, “Whose the fool? The fool or the fool who follows the fool.”

Costner’s current (rather boring, IMO) project is a thing called “Yellowstone” on the Paramount Network.

The first two seasons were mildly entertaining, the third one, which wraps up this weekend, not so much.

In any other business/industry comments like this would be met with shock and dismay by the power brokers, knowing Costner is blowing off half his audience.

This being Hollywood, however, he’s probably angling for an Emmy.

And his odds just went up.

He can make a cardboard cutout of himself and set it up at a Rockies game.

Costner has taken the ticket, and is on-call for the Deep State pedos and controllers, doing their bidding (the same can be said for many, many other “celebrities”, such a Taylor Swift, Tom Hanks, etc).

Since our idiotic society engages in celebrity worship, these celebrities have pull.
