Sharon Stone accuses "ignorant" men of Trump's victory

Hollywood actress Sharon Stone said that "ignorant" men could influence the victory of Donald Trump in the US presidential election. She stressed the importance of electing a government, saying citizens should "stop and think about who they choose." The actress shared her opinion on the election during a press conference at the Turin Film Festival, reports UNN with reference to The Daily Mail. 

Criticism of the political situation in the United States

The actress also expressed the opinion that the United States is in a period of "youth", comparing this stage with presence and clarity.

She added that many Americans who do not travel and do not have passports are in their "extreme naivety.

Sharon Stone said that it is necessary to clearly understand that "bad men" are dangerous and they should be kept away from daughters, wives and girls. She was referring to Trump and his supporters. The actress also added that you can no longer turn a blind eye to men who are known for their bad deeds.

Note that the figures show that the majority of women, namely 53%, voted for Kamala Harris. 45% of voters voted for Trump. Men were more supportive of the Republican nominee — 55% for Trump and 42% for Harris, respectively.

Reaction to the actress ' performance

Her speech caused a storm of discussions on the internet. Many people have accused her of being detached from reality and becoming an elite celebrity who doesn't understand ordinary people. For example, one user wrote that Hollywood no longer matters, and her words are funny.

Another user said that it was precisely because of people like Sharon Stone that Americans voted for Trump, because he came to the defense of ordinary people who are not paid attention to by politicians and celebrities.

Why might Trump's election be a bad choice?

Sexism and inequality

Trump has long been known for his sexist statements and actions. He repeatedly humiliated women, made obscene remarks, and was even accused of sexual harassment. These are not just random statements, but part of his political culture and attitude towards women, which contradicts the principles of equality and respect for Human Rights.

This attitude towards women calls into question its ability to support real efforts to ensure equal rights for all.

Trump's economic policy

Trump promised economic recovery, but his policies mostly work in favor of the rich. He lowered taxes for the rich, while most Americans did not see significant changes in their lives.

Trump often puts his economic achievements at the forefront, even though most of the economic positive changes he represents are the result of previous administrations. For example, rising stock markets and falling unemployment are the consequences of long - term investments, especially in the technologies on which the US economy began to be based even before the first Trump presidency.

Threat to democracy

Trump's appointment as president means the risk of further weakening of democratic institutions. His repeated attempts to question the election results, his open attacks on the judiciary and independent media show that he is not ready to defend the basic principles of democracy. For example, after the 2020 presidential election, Trump and his supporters spread false accusations of vote fraud. This undermined confidence in the electoral system, and also caused violence, such as the Storming of the Capitol on January 6, 2021.

Recall that Trump is accused of trying to influence the election, financial fraud and improper handling of confidential documents.
