Arnold Schwarzenegger: Muslim Ban Is ‘Crazy And Makes Us Look Stupid’ (VIDEO)

Fellow Republican Arnold Schwarzenegger has weighed in on President Trump’s immigration ban on seven countries. He spoke to Mario Lopez on Extra about the latest political move from Trump.

During the interview, the new host of The Apprentice at first said he knew what Trump was trying to do, but that it was vetted badly. Schwarzenegger then said the fact that the ban included Green card holders (this has since changed) was:

“…crazy and makes us look stupid…”

Schwarzenegger, former Governor of California talks at length about how Trump’s administration rushed into this policy without consulting anyone. Remembering his early days in government he added:

I went through some of those kind of problems when I was Governor...mistakes are made.
I hope this is a wake up call for them”

The actor who originally shot to fame as a bodybuilder is himself an immigrant.

Another interesting part of the interview is when Schwarzenegger says the laws that “stick” happen when both parties work together to make policy. It is hard to imagine Trump listening to, compromising or working “with” anyone at this point.

This is not the first time Schwarzenegger, who is actually Trump’s replacement on The Apprentice has spoken out against his predecessor. The Terminator star was the target of one of President Trump’s egotistical tweets not so long ago. Trump tweeted that Schwarzenegger’s first episode as The Apprentice had not reached the ratings he had once achieved:

Schwarzenegger replied with a hope that Trump would govern for “ALL” Americans.

With these tweets Trump once again showed the world he is more concerned about competing for popularity on a reality show than attending national security meetings. It also shows that he is a man-child who holds a grudge.

Although Schwarzenegger is a Republican, his belief in climate change and attempt to negotiate laws with Democrats show a progressive side to the actor. He joins many in opposing the “crazy” actions of the new president.
