"It's like somebody went to Woodstock and then decided to run for President..."

[Surya Gayatri]

Jeff Daniels commenting on BS's campaign just now on "With All Due Respect" (MSNBC).

He was on to talk about his new Broadway play "Blackbird", and the political scene.



He's a solid Hillary supporter and said : "I feel safe in her hands in this dangerous world".

1. LOL

[StayFrosty]

2. Shame on senator Sanders

Going around college campuses and promising young people free stuff that he knows damn well won't get past Congress

I guess he'll say anything that keeps those 27$ donations flowing

10. It's not new...he stole this tactic from previous fringe candidates who think that being able

to hold large rallies of young people can somehow translate into winning with an agenda that is either non-mainstream, or in this case, fantasy.

11. I see it again in his NJ campaigning.

While Clinton goes to hard-pressed areas like Camden, Sanders bee-lines right for the main Rutgers campus in New Brunswick.

14. The funny thing is that those kids will be out of school by the time of the NJ primary!

15. Well, it is primarily a state school, so they'll still probably be somewhere in NJ. nt

13. Hey, man, he's speakin' truth to power, ya' know?

And, the best part is, he's gonna provide free bongs for everybody!

Welcome to DU and the HRC Group, StayFrosty!

3. Talented actor, and smarter than you thought! lol. nt

[Surya Gayatri]

5. Actually, the best thing he said was about Hillary: "I feel safe in her hands..."

[Cha]

18. He's a great actor.. love Jeff Daniels in The Newsroom.. I still haven't see Season 3.

"I feel safe in her hands in this dangerous world".

And, so smart like Hillary~

[Squinch]

4. He gave a nice plug for Hillary too: "I will feel safer globally if she is President."

And I liked the fact that he pointed out that BS's plans are totally naïve in the face of Congress.

I basically agree with everything he said.

Also, my sister saw the play. Said it was devastating. I don't know if I could sit through it, but she said he was amazing.

[Surya Gayatri]

7. He said that the audience silence during some scenes is deafening...really tough.

This is a man who knows and who cares. Loved the whole interview.

6. LOL KICK

8. Woodstock and he took the brown acid. n/t

[lunamagica]

9. Spot on!

[NurseJackie]

12. That's absolutely brilliant!

[NastyRiffraff]

16. I knew I liked Jeff Daniels!

Smart man. I loved The Newsroom. I can picture him saying that about Woodstock!

[Walk away]

17. He was great! Put Bernie right down where he belongs.

19. Thank you for this, Surya.. I really like Jeff Daniels for a long time now.. this is so good

to hear.. that he's one of the smart people who're not going for the BS.
