“Sopranos” actress Drea de Matteo criticized the Biden administration while suggesting many fellow Hollywood stars shared a similar view of the president. During an interview with Donald Trump Jr., the award-winning actress said many celebrities oppose Biden’s agenda but are too afraid to voice these opinions.
De Matteo noted that she has previously voted Democrat, siding with the liberal stance on many contemporary issues. However, the actress claimed she has since stepped across the aisle, agreeing with Republicans on problems such as illegal immigration.
Trump Jr. claimed to have met some of de Matteo’s “Soprano’s” co-stars, but he seemed skeptical that they would buy into the leftist agenda. “I don’t feel like a lot of those guys were leftist liberals,” he said. The former president’s son then asked her if she had noticed any others within the entertainment industry who were secretly conservative.
It’s important to note that de Matteo doesn’t view herself as a card-carrying Republican by any means, but she expressed disdain for the direction in which the modern left is heading. “I really did want to fight, but I didn’t think I had, A, the voice, B, the balls,” but claimed things have changed since she “got thrown to the wolves.”
The actress continued, “And once I was out there, I was like, ‘I’m out here, what am I going to do? I’m out of my cage.’ Like, I may as well just, you know, do what I got to do.” After noting she has been supported by her boyfriend, God, and her children, she said, “they believe in what we believe in, which is freedom and unity the right way, not unity the way this administration was trying to push. That was bulls***.”
De Matteo then pivoted toward the Biden administration, where she claimed it took advantage of social issues as a “pawn” while only dividing Americans. “They took every social agenda and used that and used these social issues as pawns to further their administration, did nothing but divide people,” she stated.
She further suggested that while Biden’s White House has been pushing its agenda incessantly, many Hollywood actors and actresses who disagree with the issues feel “petrified.” She asserted that they are apprehensive toward voicing their opinions on these matters because it is impossible to “win” when arguing with a leftist.
“This administration has just been hammering all of these things,” she said, “and people in Hollywood are petrified. What, are you going to speak out against race, and sex, and all of that stuff? People are afraid to have those conversations, because first of all, you never win with a liberal, you’re just never gonna win.”
Donald Trump Jr. posted a clip from the interview on X with the caption, “I’m just so liberal that I’m a conservative at this point.” Emmy winner, your favorite Sopranos star Drea de Matteo @dreadematteo is fed up with all the Hollywood hate and all the far-left lunacy driving our country off a cliff.” Watch the segment below:
