Harrison Ford says 'we gotta start talking politics'
| Fox News ^ | 2/18/20 | Tyler McCarthy

Posted on 02/18/2020 12:04:19 PM PST by conservative98

Harrison Ford is dipping his toe into political waters, noting in a recent interview that talking about politics has become unavoidable.

Days after the 77-year-old actor appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live and called President Donald Trump a “son of a b----,” he was asked about his recent forays into talking politics in an interview with CBS News. The star responded by noting that politics has become too divisive and called for a return to “the middle ground.”

"I think it's come to the point where we gotta start talking politics," Ford said. "But we gotta talk about it in a positive way. We gotta regain the middle ground. We're in these ideological enclaves. But the truth is in the middle. Progress is made in the middle."

When asked if he thought it was possible to get back to the middle ground, the Han Solo actor’s response was blunt.

“We damn well better,” he shot back.

Ford was on hand to promote his new film, “The Call of the Wild,” which he says spoke to his personal beliefs about climate change and human beings’ impact on the natural world.

"politics has become too divisive and called for a return to “the middle ground.”

Is he even listening to himself?

Harrison Ford's "middle ground" is an America where Deep State "living Constitution" political hacks get confirmed to the Federal bench 98-0, and smirking buttnuggets like NBC's Cuck Dood and CNN's "In The Pooper" Cooper get to attack our side without pushback.

I like what my President is doing.

Shut up and act, Old Rich Boomer.

So tired of these wealthy celebrities helping the sonsa bitches who will inflict misery on the rest of us when they will be insulated. If for instance Bloomberg won he would use the Climate Change BS to ruin our lives but the F’n celebrates will be just in their mansions and private jets

Fake @$$ actor, who pretends for a living, pretending to be righteously woke about FAKE politics/climate change.

Oh yes Mr. celebrity-that-ferries-himself-around-in-a-private-plane, please lecture me on the evils of fossil fuels.

Harrison Ford said, “You and I are very much alike. politics is our religion, yet we have both fallen from the pure faith. Our methods have not differed as much as you pretend.”

Translation, conservatives are fighting back; we need to go back to a time when we said whatever we wanted and conservatives would just shup and take it.

Exactly. And when you get your “Science” from Bill Nye “The Slightly Unhinged Guy”, you might want to cool it with the SOB nonsense.

Yep. It appears that’s what Jeb was calling for yesterday.

I’ve actually liked his work over the years, I’m just going to chalk this up to getting old and senile. With his age and his money and this is how he’s spending his time, LAME. I really like these libs that claim to be “into science” when they couldn’t pass an 8th grade class in general science.
