An Oscar-winning actress has hit a nerve for Trump…
Which celebrity has angered Donald Trump now? Is it Harrison Ford, who endorsed Kamala Harris this weekend – his first ever presidential endorsement? The cast and crew of SNL, who welcomed Harris last Saturday for an opening skit? The cast of Marvel’s Avengers, who assembled once more to collectively endorse Harris on Instagram?Or could it be Kick Ass star Chloë Grace Moretz, who also recently endorsed Kamala Harris and appeared to come out as a “gay woman” in her social media post supporting LGBTQ rights? No, the presidential candidate has criticised Julia Roberts for narrating a Harris-Walz campaign video in the run-up to the election on Tuesday. The ad featuring the Oscar winning actress was created by the progressive evangelical group Vote Common Good and makes references to Trump’s stance on reproductive rights. It reminds women that their vote is their choice, regardless of how their partners vote. “In the one place in America where women still have a right to choose, you can vote any way you want and no one will ever know,” Roberts says. The spot shows a woman voting for Harris in the booth, even though her husband appears to be a Trump supporter. The woman then leaves the booth and her husband asks: “Did you make the right choice?” The wife responds: “Sure did, honey,” and then shares a knowing glance with a fellow female voter. “Remember,” Roberts adds as the narrator, “what happens in the booth, stays in the booth.” Check out the ad below: The ad narrated by Roberts clearly struck a nerve, as an irrate Trump phoned the show Fox & Friends to say he was “disappointed” in the actress. “I’m so disappointed at Julia Roberts. She’s going to look back on that and she’s going to cringe. ‘Did I really say that?’” Trump said. “It doesn’t say much for her relationship, but I’m sure she has a great relationship. The wives and the husbands, I don’t think that’s the way they deal.””Can you imagine a wife not telling a husband who she’s voting for?” he added. “Did you ever hear anything like that? Even if you had a horrible — if you had a bad relationship, you’re going to tell your husband. It’s a ridiculous thing. So stupid.” Vote Common Good aims to provide an “exit ramp” for Evangelical and Catholic voters who “have been taught that to be faithful, they must vote for Republican candidates regardless of the candidate’s character or policy positions,” the organization explains on its website. “In recent years a significant percentage of these voters have watched the Republican party disregard a commitment to the common good as they support political and social movements rooted in white-nationalism, a misguided approach to ‘America First,’ and practices of division,” the group adds. “The behavior of many elected Republicans makes it difficult for them to continue to support them. They are open to disassociating with Republicans in pursuit of the common good.”
