NEW YORK: Oscar-winning actress Susan Sarandon, star of cult classic “Thelma and Louise,” has expressed reservations about voting for Hillary Clinton in the US election, even if the opponent is Donald Trump.
The prominent actress is a high-profile campaigner for leftist Senator Bernie Sanders, who faces a near-impossible task in trying to wrest the Democratic nomination from frontrunner Clinton.
“That’s a legitimate concern because they’re very passionate and very principled,” Sarandon, 69, told MSNBC on Monday when asked about fears that Sanders’s supporters would not support Clinton if he loses the nomination.
“I think Bernie would probably encourage people (to back Clinton if he lost) because he doesn’t have any ego in this thing,” she said. “But I think a lot of people are, ‘Sorry, I just can’t bring myself to do that.’“
Asked about her own vote in the event that Clinton faces Republican frontrunner Trump, who has insulted women, Mexicans and Muslims in a volatile campaign, she replied: “I don’t know. I’m going to see what happens.”
“Really,” she added when the TV interviewer expressed shock.
