There's a difference between lying and holding a strong political opinion. The GOP and Trump lie, blatantly, provably, all the time. The more left wing progressives, of which Sarandon is one of, holds and publicly discusses strong opinions. Yes even those that you may consider radical, those that make some Democrats uncomfortable; like being criticized of being too cozy with the likes of Goldman Sachs and the .1%. And that in some areas, like that one, the top establishment in the Democratic party could be seen, at times, as serving the same masters as the Republican party. At least that is her opinion, and frankly a lot of others. Just because she has been public with this opinion, does in no way put her in the same basket as a Trump or Alex Jones.

Yes, we must work towards getting those that might be swayed by the tempting notion of "fuck it, lets just burn it all to the ground"...to vote for Democrats. I agree. But making enemies of them, calling activists who have worked on the front lines of liberal social causes for decades the ultimate insult as supporters of Trump, will not sway them to come back. Only actual policy proposals that they see will work for them, at least for a lot of them, for enough of them, will do that. That is my opinion.
