Patrick Stewart has said he is applying for US citizenship in order to "fight" Donald Trump.

On The View, he said that because of the recent election he has decided to apply for citizenship in order to join the resistance against the President.

“I’m not a [U.S.] citizen,”the actor 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,’” Mr Stewart said.

He made the comments after being asked about a tweet in which he wrote: "Had the worst sleep of my life last night. But I was sleeping less than 300 yds from where Donald Trump sleeps. Could there be a connection?"

Nice, another FAT member, i.e. Faggots Against Trump, comes to America to undermine our president.

Yeah well, about 100 years ago my granparents came from eastern europe, without english fluency, and somehow managed to follow american immigration law, fill out the required forms and become american citizens. If they could do it then, why can’t today’s lawbreakers do it now? Seriously, why can’t immigrants from south of the border do it now? Are they too stupid or what?

So he’s changing his citizenship to fight Trump. Talk about a monumental ego.

Wants US citizenship for a tax dodge, and virtual signals about it to get Brownie points with his Hollywood peers.

Picard has zero in the James T. Kirk department.

That's why they needed Ryker as second in command to do all the manly stuff Kirk would have done. IIRC, almost all of the Star Trek actors condemned Trump during the election; so this is nothing new. I'll still watch my Blu-rays of the show. Patrick Stewart is just another actor who proves he is not as intelligent as the characters he plays.

Why you blaming Star Trek? He hasn’t been in Star Trek for 20 year. Might as well blame Dune.

Just imagine how effective such a powerful ship as the Enterprise would have been against the Klingons, or the Romulons, or whoever they were fighting in TNG, if a REAL captain had been in command. But now I see that the character had traits of the actor who portrayed him.

NO MORE IMMIGRATION.

Untill people from this country actually start to leave and want to live in other countries all these dregs are invading us from.

If the United States is so bad off, why the hell does every third world asshole and liberal idiot think it is so damn great to want to come here?

Make your own country great. STAY OUT OF MINE.

I file stories like this in the “who cares folder”. Another actor wants to become an American so he can fight Trump. So what’s the big deal? Now if he was bringing another 100,000 progressive brits with him it would be news worthy.

Great actor. Looking forward to watching “Logan” Sunday afternoon!
