Jeff Daniels: Trump Voters Voting for ‘a President Who Is Heading to Prison’

Actor Jeff Daniels on Monday, discussed his role in Showtime’s “The Comey Rule,” a miniseries based on the word of former FBI Director James Comey’s book “Higher Loyalty.”

Daniels, who depicts Comey in the miniseries, said that with President Donald Trump’s lack of respect for the rule of law in his presidency and now the New York Times claiming to have his income tax returns which show “chronic losses and years of tax avoidance,” his supporters are “voting for a president who is heading to prison.”

“Everybody respected the rule of law. Everybody respected those things that made America and make America the free country that it is. Until now. And it’s been painfully obvious from before 2016, but certainly in the four years previous. And look at what happened yesterday. That’s what autocrats do,” Daniels told MSNBC “Morning Joe” host Joe Scarborough.

“I think days like yesterday with the tax returns starting to come out, we’re starting to see a president who is doing everything he possibly can, including lying about the pandemic, to stay out of jail,” Daniels added. “That’s who you’re voting for is a president who is heading to prison. And if I’m wrong, I guess we’re going to find out, but it’s so obvious. If the Trump administration were a movie, a script, they would kick it back because the villain is too obvious. He’s not transparent enough. And you just see this stacking and stacking as we head into November 3 as the reality of, guys … we can see the iceberg now. What are you waiting for? And what they are waiting for is — I don’t know. I just don’t know.”

Jeff Daniels the guy who had no need to act in Dumb and Dumber, very fitting title considering the leads were Carrey and Daniels. Why anyone thinks that the opinion of a biased socialist actor is important is beyond me.

If TBR posted every actor/singer/comedian who criticized Trump in some slanderous vicious way, that is all the site would be every single day. My God, it happens thousands of times a day. Why this guy is distinct enough to get the press he has, I will never understand. It is as common as rain.

I consider Daniels a B actor.  And I do not look to him for his insight into anything.  Just one more over paid idiot!!!

LOL!

I see that he played 'James Comey' in The Comey Rule...must still be in 'character' or something.

This comes from someone who has no qualms at all about handing the nuclear codes off to someone with dementia.

Here’s an actor who’s career apex was playing a guy blastin’ ass on a broken commode.

@240B  is right.  Celebrities being against Republicans/conservatives is not even remotely news worthy. I’ve heard D list celebrity Alyssa Milano, for example, mentioned more in the last three years then all of her years when she was on “Who’s The Boss”  and “Charmed.”
