Susan Sarandon is back on the spotlight with her political views particularly her anti-Hillary sentiment since the 2016 presidential election.

During a recent interview with The Guardian, the Oscar-winning actress discussed several topics including feminism and her role in the series Feud: Better and Joan. She also talked about the amount of hatred she received for refusing to support Hillary Clinton and speaking out against her.

In 2001, Susan Sarandon supported and campaigned for Mrs. Clinton for senator. However, she flipped and became a strong supporter of Sen. Bernie Sanders in 2016. The actress decided to endorse Green Party candidate Jill Stein instead of Mrs. Clinton.

Susan Sarandon believes Hillary would be dangerous as president

Last year, the media quoted the actress saying, “She [Clinton] did not learn from Iraq. She is an interventionist, and she has done horrible things - and very callously. I don’t know if she is overcompensating or what her trip is. That scares me. I think we’ll be in Iran in two seconds.”  In other words, she perceives Mrs. Clinton a war mongering politician.

It appears that Susan Sarandon continues to despise the former Democratic presidential nominee and maintains her perception of her.

When asked by the interviewer from The Guardian if she really said that Mrs. Clinton would be more dangerous than Trump as president.

Susan Sarandon responded, “Not exactly, but I don’t mind that quote. I did think she was very, very dangerous. We would still be fracking. We would be at war [if she was president]. It wouldn’t be much smoother. Look what happened under Obama that we didn’t notice.”

The actress also noted Mrs. Clinton’s refusal to support a $15 minimum wage. According to her, that “tell you she’s not a feminist, when 50% of the households in America are headed by women.”  During her campaign, Mrs. Clinton proposed a $12 minimum wage.

Additionally, she revealed that during her conversation with her gay friends, she told them that Mrs. Clinton is an “opportunist,” “not authentic,” and “have been terrible to gay people.” She made it clear that she never lost friends because of her anti-Hillary stand.

Misogynistic attacks

Furthermore, during the interview, Susan Sarandon said she had to change her phone number because people sent her threatening messages. She referred to them as Hillary trolls.

According to the actress, Mrs. Clinton’s supporters sent her misogynistic attacks such as “I hope your crotch is grabbed. I hope you’re raped.”

Moreover she told the interviewer, “Recently, I said ‘I stand with Dreamers’ and that started another wave” of attack from the left. They told her, “How dare you! You are responsible for this!’

“It’s very flattering to think that I, on my own, cost the election. That my little voice was the deciding factor,” said Susan Sarandon about the attacks. When asked if the condemnations upset her, she responded, “It’s upsetting to me more from the point of view of thinking they haven’t learned. I don’t need to be vindicated.”
