Brad Pitt – eternal hunk – is the latest T, The New York Times Style cover star and he’s opened up about his feelings towards presidential candidate, Donald Trump.
“You gotta understand, that it’s also in our DNA. Most Americans don’t have time to watch CNN and Fox and Al Jazeera. They’re trying to make the rent, get the kids fed, they’re tired when they get home and they want to forget about everything,” he told the mag.
“And so suddenly when this voice comes in – and it doesn’t have to be a voice of substance – saying he’s fed up with all of this, that’s the part that hooks into the DNA.”
He then describes his bafflement over the businessman-come-reality-TV-star-come-political-hopeful’s political views, and also the Brexit situation in the UK.
“What does he even mean, take our country back? Would someone please explain that to me? … Where’d it go?
“Man, I never thought it would happen. Same way I can’t bring myself to think that Trump will be in charge. In the simplest terms, what brings us together is good, and what separates us is bad.
“What I’m most hopeful about is that we’re a global neighbourhood now, and we start to understand each other more and more – and yet, you see this reactionary push for isolation and separation again. A Trump supporter is fighting against just about everything.”
