Harrison Ford blasts Trump as 'world goes to hell': 'I don't know of a greater criminal in history'
The actor offered a scathing assessment of the president, calling out his "hubris," "lies," and "perfidy" and saying his climate policies "scare the s--- out of me."

.... "[He] doesn't have any policies, he has whims," Ford said in a new interview with The Guardian. "It scares the s--- out of me. The ignorance, the hubris, the lies, the perfidy." ....

Ford also said he thinks history will remember Trump's attitude toward climate change — which the commander in chief called "the greatest con job ever perpetrated on the world" at the United Nations last month — as "a clear expression of ignorance, of hubris and purposeful subterfuge." ....

Ford, however, told The Guardian that he has faith that climate advocates will be able to swing the pendulum back toward stronger protections. "He's losing ground because everything he says is a lie," Ford said of the president. "I'm confident we can mitigate against [climate change], that we can buy time to change behaviors, to create new technologies, to concentrate more fully on implementation of those policies."

He continued, "But we have to develop the political will and intellectual sophistication to realize that we human beings are capable of change. We are incredibly adaptive, we are incredibly inventive. If we concentrate on a problem we can fix it most times."

The Blade Runner actor zeroed in on Trump's climate policies, speculating that the president opposes wind turbines only because "he has just not seen a gold one" — a not-so-subtle jab at the president's interior decorating tastes.
