Susan Sarandon Willing to Gamble On Post-President Trump 'Revolution' if Sanders Isn’t The Nominee

Actress and activist Susan Sarandon popped by for a visit with MSNBC’s Chris Hayes Monday night to talk about — among other topics — the presidential candidacy of Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders. Putting it mildly: she’s a big fan of Bernie and not so much a fan of Hillary Clinton —

Pressed by Hayes over elections being about “making choices,” Sarandon explained that Bernie would likely encourage voters to back Clinton should she win the nomination, because “he doesn’t have any ego in this thing.”

This would likely make him the only politician to ever run for the position as The Most Powerful Man In The World out of a deep sense of humility. Sarandon then added “But I think a lot of people are, ‘Sorry, I just can’t bring myself to [vote for Hillary].'”

Asked about her own vote, Sarandon replied, “I don’t know, I’m going to see what happens,” before she added with a smile, “You know, some people think Donald Trump will bring the revolution immediately. If he gets in then things will really, you know, explode.” http://www.rawstory.com/2016/03/susan-sarandon-is-willing-to-gamble-on-a-post-president-trump-revolution-if-sanders-isnt-the-nominee/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+TheRawStory+(The+Raw+Story)
