Helen Mirren Believes Having Donald Trump as President Is a 'Very Frightening Idea'
- 8 years ago
Although she won't be voting, it's safe to say Dame Helen Mirren won't be cheering for Donald Trump or Ted Cruz.
The English actress voiced her thoughts on the presidential elections, specifically against the Republican party.
"There is an extraordinary, extreme, right-wing voice in America – extreme," Mirren, 70, said to British broadcaster Channel 4 News.
"If that does get into power fully – in the Congress, in the Senate, in the White House and has all the power that it wants, I can't imagine how the world would look.
I think it's a very, very frightening idea, myself."
"This whole idea of 'making America great' it seems to me it would actually be sort of the end of America as a great country," Mirren retorted.
