Alec Baldwin gave an interview to the 'Hollywood Reporter', and among the things he said are:
* “I don’t know how to say this and I don’t want to get it wrong either, because everything is a minefield of bombs going off, but
ever since I played Trump [on Saturday Night Live], black people love me. They love me. Everywhere I go, black people go crazy. I think it’s because they’re most afraid of Trump. I’m not going to paint every African-American person with the same brush, but a significant number of them are sitting there going, ‘This is going to be bad for black folks.'”
* Says that the
#MeToo movement is not a witch hunt but is a “fire that constantly needs kindling” and that after the Harvey Weinstein allegations surfaced,
a publication contacted an actress who was underage when they worked together and told her that a wardrobe assistant had claimed he molested her (the unnamed actress denied it happened, so the story wasn’t published). “I just remember thinking in that moment, ‘Wow, they’re looking for people. This is a fire that needs fresh wood, and they’re coming for me”
* Slams
Rose McGowan as a leader of the movement: “She’s a tragic front person for the cause, and I say that because you don’t stand much of a chance of getting where you want to be if you’re going to arbitrarily alienate and excoriate innocent men. … It’s like all of a sudden, she’s one of the Crips — the head of her own gang.”
