Harrison Ford Makes Unexpected Political Move, Endorsing Kamala Harris
Harrison Ford has made an unexpected foray into politics this election year by announcing his endorsement of Kamala Harris for president. In a video shared on November 2, Ford, 82, publicly endorsed Harris and Tim Walz, marking his initial political endorsement. While acknowledging that he disagrees with some of their policies, Ford emphasizes his support for their adherence to the rule of law and science, as well as their commitment to governing inclusively for all Americans. This is prepared by SSP.
During his endorsement, Ford critically addressed former President Donald Trump, accusing him of dividing the country and supporting global tyrants. Expressing his frustration with the current state of the nation, Ford stressed the urgency of moving forward with a leader who promotes unity and active governance. Ford's appeal to voters comes with a personal conviction—after seven decades of voting largely in silence, he felt compelled to speak out due to the alarms raised by former Trump administration officials about the risks of reelecting Trump.
Joining a cadre of celebrities, including Taylor Swift, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Beyoncé, who support Harris, Ford asserts his belief in the importance of this election. Ford reiterated the significance of electing a president aligned with values such as consensus and coalition-building, traits he previously admired in Joe Biden when discussing issues like climate change. Despite this being his first formal endorsement, Ford's engagement reflects a broader movement amongst public figures advocating for proactive, inclusive leadership in America.
