Actor and activist Sean Penn appeared on “The Jim Acosta Show” podcast, where he made bold statements about former President Donald Trump.
On the May 1 episode, Penn, along with Rep. Eric Swalwell and Jim Acosta, discussed Trump’s leadership and its negative impact on the nation.
Swalwell highlighted the consequences, saying, “We’re assessing those making deals with Trump that undermine democracy. There will be a day of reckoning. With Trump’s poll numbers under 40 percent, accountability is coming.”
Rep. Eric Swalwell from California added, “Trump’s poll numbers are in free fall. We’re seeing more and more seats in Congress and the Senate become competitive. We expect a wave-like election and we’re preparing for it.”
Sean Penn chimed in with his own perspective, saying, “Before [Nayib] Bukele faces another leader, we need to consider the worst-case scenarios. I think it’s a reasonable theory that Trump is like someone whose spouse leaves them for another person, and then they resort to drastic measures, like murder, because if they can’t have her, no one can.”
Penn went on, “I believe Trump’s solipsism makes him view the world in a similar way. His actions seem like a power play, and part of it might be a literal intention for his final exit.”
When Acosta asked if Penn thought Trump would try to remain president, Penn replied, “I think he might try to destroy the world before he ages out of life.”
The conversation shifted to what Trump might do to protect himself. Swalwell pointed out that if Trump feels there’s no one left to protect him, he’ll likely “ratchet up” his actions.
Trump has expressed a desire to extend his presidency for a third term, making him potentially the second president in U.S. history to do so, after Franklin D. Roosevelt, who served from 1933 to 1945.
In a March NBC News interview, Trump stated that “a lot of people want me to do it” when discussing a third term. He added, “But, I mean, I basically tell them we have a long way to go. It’s very early in the administration. I’m focused on the current.”
When asked if he’d consider serving a third term, the 78-year-old political leader replied, “I like working.”
