Kristen Stewart Considers Leaving America Due to Donald Trump

Actress Kristen Stewart has expressed her intention to potentially leave the United States, citing her concerns about the political climate under President Donald Trump. In a recent interview with The Times of London, Stewart stated, “Reality is breaking completely under Trump,” advocating for creating a new reality. She emphasized that she cannot work freely in the U.S. and suggested a desire to produce films in Europe instead, stating, “I’d like to make movies in Europe and then shove them down the throat of the American people.”

Impact of Trump’s Presidency on Celebrities

Stewart is not alone in her sentiments. Many other celebrities have also chosen to leave the U.S. during Trump’s presidency. This includes notable figures like Ellen DeGeneres and Rosie O’Donnell.

James Cameron’s Perspective

Oscar-winning director James Cameron, who initially moved to New Zealand for his work on the “Avatar” series, has echoed similar feelings. In a podcast episode of “In Depth with Graham Bensinger,” he shared his relief in not returning to America after the pandemic hit. Cameron stated, “New Zealand had eliminated the virus completely.” He praised the country for its public health response and expressed skepticism about the U.S. handling of the pandemic, pointing out a vaccination rate of only 62% in contrast to New Zealand’s 98%.

• New Zealand successfully eliminated the virus twice.
• Cameron preferred living in a place that supports science and public health.
• He expressed concern over the polarized climate in the United States.

O’Donnell’s Concerns

Rosie O’Donnell also voiced her reluctance to return to America due to safety concerns for her family. She articulated her hesitation regarding the political environment and expressed a desire to wait until the current administration is accountable for its actions.

Kristen Stewart’s historical interactions with Trump have contributed to her feelings about his presidency. She recalled a 2012 incident where Trump publicly criticized her personal life and encouraged her then-boyfriend Robert Pattinson to end their relationship. Reflecting on the ordeal, Stewart remarked, “It’s such a far-out concept that I don’t want to believe that actually is happening. It’s insane.”

As discussions continue about leaving the United States, it appears many in Hollywood are grappling with the implications of Trump’s presidency on their personal and professional lives.
