As they continued to discuss the issue, Hayes pressed Sarandon to see the election as potentially a choice between Clinton and Trump, arguing that Sanders himself would probably urge his supporters to vote for her.
I think Bernie would probably encourage people, because he doesnt have any ego in this thing, Sarandon told him. But I think a lot of people are, Sorry, I just cant bring myself to [vote for Clinton].
How about you personally? Hayes asked.
I dont know. Im going to see what happens, Sarandon said.
That bit of honesty prompted Hayes to stop in his tracks. Really? he asked incredulously.
Really, Sarandon said, adding that some people feel that Donald Trump will bring the revolution immediately if he gets in, things will really explode. Asked if she thinks thats dangerous, she replied, Its dangerous to think that we can continue the way we are with the militarized police force, with privatized prisons, with the death penalty, with the low minimum wage, threats to womens rights and think you cant do something huge to turn that around.
