(Rightallegiance.com.com) – In the days leading up to the presidential election, Hollywood veteran Harrison Ford, widely known for his roles in “Star Wars” and “Indiana Jones,” has thrown his support behind Vice President Kamala Harris. His endorsement is part of a wave of high-profile backing for the Democratic nominee as she faces off against former President Donald Trump.
In a video message shared by the Harris campaign, the 82-year-old actor spoke directly to the camera, using his decades of experience as both an actor and a voter to convey a sense of urgency. “I’ve been voting for 64 years,” Ford said. “I never really wanted to talk about it very much, but 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.”
Seated in a grayscale video against a simple dark backdrop, Ford’s tone was serious as he reminded viewers of the importance of the message from former Trump officials who have publicly opposed the ex-president’s bid for re-election. He emphasized that these officials — many of whom have spent their lives within the Republican Party — are stepping forward because they feel this election is uniquely consequential.
“These aren’t soft people,” Ford continued, referencing the officials as “governors, generals” who are boldly challenging their own party. “For many of them, this will be the first time they’ve voted for someone who doesn’t have an ‘R’ next to their name, because they know this really matters.”
Ford highlighted what he sees as a critical difference between the two candidates: Kamala Harris, he argued, values open discourse and respects the right to disagree on policies and ideas. “The truth is this: Kamala Harris will protect your right to disagree with her about policies or ideas… and, as we’ve done for centuries, we’ll debate them, we’ll work on them together, and we’ll move forward,” he said. In stark contrast, Ford warned that Trump is seeking “unquestioning loyalty” and harbors a desire for “revenge.”
Ford’s endorsement comes alongside a flood of support from Hollywood. Other celebrities who have expressed their backing for Harris include Oprah Winfrey, Leonardo DiCaprio, Bruce Springsteen, Lady Gaga, Don Cheadle, George Clooney, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Taylor Swift, and even Ford’s former “Star Wars” co-star, Mark Hamill. This collective show of support underscores the widespread sentiment in the entertainment industry regarding the high stakes of this election.
However, Trump has also garnered his share of endorsements from public figures. His supporters include Dennis Quaid, best known for his role in “Reagan,” as well as country singer Jason Aldean, wrestling icon Hulk Hogan, business magnate Elon Musk, actors Jon Voight and Dean Cain, and musician Kid Rock.
Despite her numerous celebrity endorsements, Harris has encountered some challenges with traditional Democratic groups. Some unions, including the influential Teamsters, have opted not to endorse any candidate in this election, and the Harris campaign has not seen the same level of newspaper endorsements that were received by former candidates like Hillary Clinton and President Joe Biden in 2016 and 2020, respectively.
As election day approaches, polls reveal a neck-and-neck race between Harris and Trump. Both candidates are fiercely competing in crucial battleground states — Georgia, North Carolina, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Nevada, and Arizona — where the results could ultimately decide the election outcome. Some analysts believe additional states, such as New Hampshire, Virginia, and Iowa, could also play a pivotal role if the margins tighten further.
With a strong turnout expected on election day, all eyes are on these key battleground states to see which direction the country will take for the next four years. Ford’s call for unity and forward momentum echoes sentiments shared by many who see this election as a turning point, and his endorsement serves as a reminder that, even after 64 years of voting, the importance of this democratic process remains undiminished.
HAHAHAHAHA, of course Hollywood is supporting her.
Harrison, you bet on the etern loser
