Jeff Daniels slams Republicans, hopes they ‘lose their money’

Actor Jeff Daniels sat down for an interview with Nicolle Wallace on the podcast, The Best People where he slammed people who voted for Donald Trump.

"But when Mitch [McConnell] started stacking the courts 25 years ago, I said it on your show once, they can see it coming," he said. "The new America that is diverse and treats everyone with equality and respect and dignity, you know, kind of like Jesus did. We're ready for that."

"And Mitch and company could see it coming. They were going to be the minority, so they just started and then here we are, and now you got it, and now you're losing money," Daniels continued.

"I hope you're losing tons of money, those of you who thought this would be OK," the actor ranted. "My question is, what are you guys going to do about it?"

"I mean, Michigan voted for Trump this time again," Wallace agreed. "I mean, the tariffs are going to hurt your neighbors, they're going to hurt."

"Which I think, at the end of the day, that's what's going to do it," he predicted. "‘Wait a minute, the grocery bill is what? $180 more? I can't get that car that we have to have unless I pay another $8,000. What? Who do I blame for that? Who do I see about that?' One person."

"And I feel like some of the conversations we've had over the last 5-6 years were about this tug, not between right and left, but between decency and maybe if it's about the cost of things, decency became a luxury. There's something about decency being the sort of collateral damage, the thing we lose over wanting cheaper eggs," Wallace admitted.
