Who would've believed that ?

Jennifer Lawrence leaned rather to the right of the American political spectrum until recently.

The

Hunger Games

actress

has just revealed, by supporting Joe Biden, that she has not always been a Democrat, far from it.

“I grew up as a Republican.

When I first voted it was for John McCain.

I was a little Republican, ”she said on the

Absolutely Not

podcast

.

What appealed to him about the Republicans' political approach: largely their perspective on taxation.

The star confides to have "seen the tax benefits of certain laws of the Republicans".

Why, then, support Joe Biden today, who wants to raise taxes for the richest?

The answer lies in one person: Donald Trump.

No to racism

"He is an indicted president, who violated several laws and refused to condemn white supremacy, and for me, there is a line not to be crossed (...) I don't want to support a president who supports supremacists white, ”she added.

Jennifer Lawrence refers to the recent outings of Donald Trump, who notably winked at the neo-fascist group Proud Boys during the first debate against Joe Biden, or else refused to distance himself from the conspiracy movement in anti-Semitic trend QAnon considered a risk of "domestic terrorist threat" by the FBI.

In conclusion, the Oscar-winning star compared the presidency of Donald Trump and that of Barack Obama, during which Americans could spend "days, even weeks, without thinking about the president, simply because everything was generally fine" .

It must be said that the current tenant of the White House spends much more time than his predecessor on Twitter and that he mainly broadcasts aggressive posts or fake news there, which is much more debate and poses more problems.
