Actor James Cromwell says the U.S. is facing a blood-filled “revolution” if President Trump isn’t stopped.
“This is nascent fascism. We always had a turnkey, totalitarian state — all we needed was an excuse, and all the institutions were in place to turn this into pure fascism,” the “Babe” star told Variety in a Sunday interview at the Carney Awards in Los Angeles.
“If we don’t stop [Trump] now, then we will have a revolution for real. Then there will be blood in the streets,” Cromwell, 78, said.
“We’re living in very curious times, and something is coming up which is desperately important to this country and to this planet, and that is an election, in which hopefully, in some measure, we are going to take back our democracy,” Cromwell, a longtime political, environmental and animal rights activist, said during the awards ceremony.
