WATCH: Actors Matthew McConaughey, Russell Brand Sound off on the Left’s Elitist Attitude Toward Trump Voters
Actors Matthew McConaughey and Russell Brand are fed up with elites who look down on the similar minded people in each of their countries who voted for President Trump and for Brexit, the UK’s split from the European Union.
“I have sensed a lot of condemnation and criticism of what I might describe as ordinary working people, a kind of offhandedness, like, ‘oh they’re dumb, they’re voting for Brexit, they’re voting for Trump,'” Brand recently remarked on his podcast. “I don’t like it. I don’t like to hear it. Because of my own experiences and my own upbringing.”
“I’ve spent enough time with people that are being described in this manner to feel ill at ease about it,” he added.
There must be a way for liberal professionals and ordinary working people to find common ground, Brand asked his guest.
“That’s my hope,” McConaughey agreed, before also sounding off on leftists who think they’re better than Trump voters.
