‘Great power should not act on autopilot’: Morgan Freeman blasts Trump as a ‘convicted felon’ dragging America into chaos

Actor Morgan Freeman, known for Street Smart (1987), The Shawshank Redemption (1994), and the Dark Knight trilogy (2005–2012), may not have been overtly critical of Donald Trump in the past. However, through his support for Democratic individuals over the years, he has made it clear that he is not the biggest fan of the Dorito Dictator. This changed recently when Freeman, in light of recent events in the United States, spoke his mind about Donald Trump without holding back.

Morgan Freeman said a couple of things about Donald Trump and the state of the US under his rule during his recent appearance on MSNBC’s The Last Word with Lawrence O’Donnell to promote his latest movie, The Gray House. One of the most striking points he made, which has since gained significant attention on social media, including X (formerly Twitter), is that the current US president was a convicted felon and, despite that, holds one of the most important positions in the US and the world, owing to the significant amount of control the country has over nations around the world.
