Susan Sarandon: I’m more afraid of Hillary’s war record than Trump’s wall [View all]

Susan Sarandon once again evicerates Hillary on the Colbert show:

https://www.rawstory.com/2016/04/susan-sarandon-im-more-afraid-of-hillarys-war-record-than-trumps-wall/

She suggested Sanders could win the Democratic nomination at a contested convention on the strength of his ideas.

“We’re going to have to have a contested one, and what’s going to happen is that people are going to have to discuss the whole process and the platform, and really listen to people that they’re not normally listening to,” Sarandon said.

The actress has drawn criticism for suggesting she would rather see Donald Trump elected than Hillary Clinton, if Sanders fails to win the Democratic presidential nomination — but she claimed her words were taken out of context.

“Wait a minute — I said some people say (Trump would bring the revolution faster),” Sarandon said. “I’m more afraid of, actually, Hillary Clinton’s war record and her hawkishness than I am of building a wall, but that doesn’t mean that I would vote for Trump.”
