Garfield, 33, juxtaposed U.S. President Barack Obama’s speech to that of his successor’s: “We all, I’m sure, have seen Obama‘s farewell speech, his final address, which was so full of grace and love and warmth,” he told Vulture‘s “Award Show Show Podcast”.
“And then you switch on the television and you see this sick man [Donald Trump]. The contrast! The sickness, the toxicity, that is emanating out of his every pore — energetically, you can just feel it, I believe, if your eyes and ears are open. It’s shocking,” Garfield continued.
The “Hacksaw Ridge” star went on to thank celebrities like Meryl Streep for bringing important issues to attention: “I’m grateful for people like Meryl Streep. She gives our profession a very, very good name because she’s focused on the things that are meaningful. She’s not trying to win votes, she’s not trying to make money or win endorsements or be popular, she’s just trying to speak the truth.”
