Hillary Clinton called Trump voters “deplorables.” President Joe Biden dubbed them “garbage.”
No matter the label, those voters rallied Nov. 5 and made President Donald Trump the nation’s 47th president.
Now, two Hollywood stars are echoing that condescending language to decry the election results.
Oscar-nominee Sharon Stone previously vowed to leave the country if Trump defeated Vice President Kamala Harris on Election Day. We’re awaiting her potential move, following in the footsteps of Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi.
In the meantime, Stone used her bully pulpit to slam Trump voters as uneducated hicks who didn’t realize Harris was the superior choice.
“So, Americans who don’t travel, who 80 percent don’t have a passport, who are uneducated, are in their extraordinary naïveté,” she said. “What I would say is that the only way that we can help with these issues is to help each other.”
Stone wasn’t alone.

Alec Baldwin echoed those thoughts in his post-election comments. The actor, speaking at a press conference at the Turin Film Festival, suggested his fellow citizens weren’t smart enough to make the correct choice.
”In my country, without going into significant detail, half the people in the country are very unhappy. It’s a very difficult time in the United States … Americans are very uninformed about reality, what’s really going on — with climate change, Ukraine, Israel, you name it. All of the biggest topics in the world, Americans have an appetite for a little bit of information.”
Baldwin is promoting “Rust,” the indie film that had to halt production following the accidental shooting death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins in 2021. The actor/producer fired the weapon that killed Hutchins, sparking a lengthy criminal investigation.
Baldwin has escaped jail time up until now, but the “30 Rock” alum may be back in court soon.
