The single most sacred rule in MAGA world is to never go against “The King” so when Reacher star Alan Ritchson spit some hot facts about Cheeto Jesus, Trump’s cult 45 came right for him on social media.
Earlier this month the man who’s been campaigning to be cast as the next Batman in James Gunn’s rebooted DCU made his feelings known about the current Republican nominee for President of The United States in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter calling him a “rapist and a con man” and wondered aloud how people of the Christian faith follow such an obvious charlatan saying “Christians today have become the most vitriolic tribe. It is so antithetical to what Jesus was calling us to be and to do,” he explains. It also upsets him that some Christians have so closely aligned with former President Donald Trump. “Trump is a rapist and a con man, and yet the entire Christian church seems to be treat him like he’s their poster child and it’s unreal. I don’t understand it.”
He’s not wrong. The man who faithfully follows his Christian beliefs is asking what we’ve all been asking these past few years: How do y’all follow a man who’s the literal embodiment of the seven deadly sins?? Didn’t the Bible say something about the antichrist pretending to be a man of God and fooling everyone into following him and committing an insurrection, etc.?
While many in MAGA nation didn’t take notice of the swipe that Ritchson took at both Donald Trump and his “Christian” followers, Trump sycophant, Sebastian Gorka addressed the issue during an interview on his radio show, America First and put a big orange target on his back. According to the Huffpost, listeners spread the word about Ritchson’s criticism and took to social media to air him out and call on their fellow Trumpians to join in on the campaign of hate against the Hollywood star but at the same time others have come to show support for his views and he might’ve made a few new fans along the way.
Per Huffpost:
During his five-minute-plus rant, Gorka told Ritchson to “shut your pie hole” when it comes to “political views” and “keep doing your play acting.”
Many conservatives seemed incensed by Ritchson’s remarks and vowed to boycott “Reacher,” which follows a brawny vagabond ex-Army police officer with a taste for vigilantism.
While the backlash from the MAGA sect was loud, there were also plenty of people who applauded the star
What Mr. Ritchson doesn’t seem to realize is, that while Donald Trump is not perfect, he sure beats the heck out of his opponents in supporting ‘America First’. THAT is what a national leader SHOULD aim for; the ADVANCEMENT of his COUNTRY!
AFA being a ‘rapist’, given the lawfare going waged against PDJT, IF he had raped someone, he would have long since, been in jail. AFA being a ‘conman’? Not likely! A salesman who talks hyperbole? Yes! Absolutely!
If, however, you look ‘across the aisle’, to PedoJoe, you see a man who has taken bribes for decades from foreign powers and who would shower with his own, teenage (at the time) daughter!
When citizens (and, unfortunately, illegals) vote in elections, they vote for failed humans, NOT Jesus. In theory, they vote for the candidate who offers the best ideas. EVERY candidate has faults and foibles. NONE are perfect, Mr. Ritchson, not even YOU!
Ritchson says he is Protestant. He trashes Catholics like you and Merrick Garland do.
Tom Cruise was better in the role.
Another of the woke-tards that people fantasize as conservative because they play the role of a soldier. Bradley Cooper is another. Kiefer Sutherland is another.
Yawn
Well he went from my watch list to my totally avoid list along with such Hollywood luminaries as Babs Streisand and Woopie Goldberg.
He said this about Trump a few weeks ago and I confronted him on his Twitter about it and asked him to present the evidence than Trump is a rapist. He must have evidence that nobody else has to say such a thing. I even told him if he didn’t answer me, then he’s a coward and a fraud and I wrote that message and posted it on his Twitter around 20 times. Still no answer.
I’m fed up with these a-holes, we have to fight back. I can’t meet him in person, I don’t know his phone number, I don’t know his address, so bombard his Twitter. It’s nothing threatening, I just want to know what evidence he has that Trump is a rapist.
And check this out: He also said cops get away with murder and trashed DeSantis and Christians. Nothing like destroying your career as soon as it starts....
Same with the John Wick movies. In the first one he kill 50 people in the first 15 minuets. The guy would qualify and the nations most prolific serial killer.
The cops and authorities never get involved and all the bodies just seem to disappear, no love ones complain.
I'm all for suspending reality for a few hours of entertainment but come on man.
Total fag...this is “Reacher”
“He was granted a full music scholarship for singing, and started to attend college but dropped out “because [he] didn’t feel fulfilled”. He then went to Los Angeles, where he worked as a model for a few years.
From 1999 to 2003, he attended Okaloosa Walton Community College, now Northwest Florida State College, as a dual-enrollment student and then graduated with an Associate of Arts degree. He was a member of the Fine Arts Division’s Soundsations and Madrigal Singers.”
I remember a time when actors went out of their way not to insult their core audience. John Wayne was literally a California guy, right in the thick of the SoCal good life of the day.
You never saw him insulting cowboys or saying he disliked horses.
Who? Haven’t watched; won’t watch, but really don’t want to read this disgusting screed by hip-hop hot, either. A few lines was more than enough. Yuk!
All presidential candidates that have ever run fall short of the Glory of God. If actor boy is saying that the demon party is higher on the Christian scale than the Republicans or anyone else for that matter he’s stone cold nuts.
I never saw Reacher. I didn’t know that background info on the character.
Yep, fired his audience.
These people are such geniuses.
Cruise was better. His intelligence came through in the role. Werner Hertzog was in his flick. That adds a lot of street cred for me.
So much for his career...
Won’t be watching Reacher ever again or anything this nutjob will be in
“The cops and authorities never get involved and all the bodies just seem to disappear, no love ones complain”
Same with Yellowstone. Machine gun fights and uncountable murders in a small town. And it doesn’t even make the news, no FBI, nothing.
Well firstly, we don't listen to or believe ignorant liars like you!
Perhaps as his show fizzles, he will regret his statement.
Yep. I assume this the big hulking guy.
Like Liam Neeson, he makes all of money playing one thing on screen and in real life, rails against those things.
Won’t watch another thing by this guy.
