Harrison Ford, the renowned actor famous for his roles in the Indiana Jones and Star Wars franchises, recently made headlines by endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz for the upcoming 2024 presidential election. In a series of videos posted on Saturday, Ford expressed his support for the Harris-Walz team.
In his endorsement video, Ford emphasized the importance of using his vote to propel the country forward, stating, 'I'm Harrison Ford – I've got one vote – same as anybody else, and I'm going to use it to move forward. I'm going to vote for Kamala Harris.'
This endorsement from Ford adds to a growing list of high-profile supporters for the Harris-Walz ticket, including celebrities like Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, George Clooney, and Leonardo DiCaprio. While Ford is not known for frequently endorsing political candidates, he previously endorsed Joe Biden in the 2020 election.
One of the key points Ford raised in his videos was the need to heed the warnings about the former President and prevent a return to the Oval Office. He highlighted the concerns raised by numerous former members of the Trump administration, who have spoken out against a potential Trump comeback.
'When dozens of former members of the Trump administration are sounding alarms, saying, 'for god's sake, don't do this again,' you have to pay attention,' Ford emphasized. 'They're telling us something important. These aren't soft people. They're governors, generals, standing up against the leader of the party they spent their lives advocating for.'
Overall, Harrison Ford's endorsement of Kamala Harris and Tim Walz adds a significant voice to the ongoing political discourse surrounding the 2024 presidential election. As the campaign season progresses, it will be interesting to see how celebrity endorsements continue to shape public opinion and influence voter decisions.
