Actors Who Don’t Support Donald Trump

Plenty of well known leading men in Hollywood have made it clear they do not back Donald Trump. They have done so through speeches, ads, artwork, and public appearances that highlight their disagreements with his politics. Below is a quick guide to male actors who have publicly taken that stance. Each entry notes a concrete moment that shows where they stand.

Robert De Niro

De Niro lent his voice to a campaign ad titled ‘Snapped’ that warned about Trump’s return to power. He later appeared outside the Manhattan courthouse during Trump’s hush money trial to speak on behalf of the opposing campaign. In his remarks he referenced January 6 and urged voters to consider the stakes for democratic norms. These moments continued a long pattern of public criticism from the actor.

Mark Ruffalo

Ruffalo has used rallies and interviews to press his case against Trump. At a New York protest he told crowds to organize and framed the movement as ordinary people defending democratic values. He has criticized Trump’s policy agenda in posts and interviews that reached wide audiences. His advocacy often connects voter engagement with climate and social justice causes.

George Clooney

Clooney publicly brushed off Trump’s taunts and said he would keep speaking out. He responded after Trump called him a fake movie actor and told him to stay out of politics. In later interviews he reiterated that he did not care about Trump’s approval and would continue to voice his concerns. His comments arrived during a broader push by entertainment figures to engage voters.

Chris Evans

Evans has repeatedly criticized Trump on social media and in interviews. He described Trump’s rhetoric as racist during a widely discussed flare up and expanded on those views in a magazine profile. He has said that potential professional blowback would not change his decision to speak up. His public stance remained consistent across multiple election cycles.

Alec Baldwin

Baldwin’s ‘Saturday Night Live’ portrayal of Trump was paired with open criticism off camera. He engaged in public back and forth with Trump online while defending the sketch as fair political commentary. News coverage captured Trump’s irritation with the impression and Baldwin’s refusal to stop. The show’s satirical segments became part of the larger political conversation.

John Cusack

Cusack has been an outspoken critic of Trump online and at protests. He addressed crowds at a “No Kings” event in Chicago and urged resistance to authoritarian politics. His social posts have used blunt language to denounce Trump’s conduct in office and on the campaign trail. The actor’s public profile has often intersected with activism during these moments.

Jim Carrey

Carrey produced a large body of political artwork targeting Trump and his administration. Galleries and media outlets documented dozens of drawings that lampooned Trump allies and policy moves. He has said the art served as his outlet for responding to behavior he viewed as harmful to public life. Exhibits and interviews tracked this phase of his career alongside film work.

Ben Affleck

Affleck criticized Trump’s comments and defended peers who spoke out against him. He publicly backed Meryl Streep after Trump called her overrated and said the attack on her was off base. He also objected when audio from ‘Air’ appeared in a Trump campaign video without permission. Statements from his production company clarified there was no consent for political use.

Matt Damon

Damon voiced disdain for Trump in interviews over several years. He joined Ben Affleck in rejecting the use of material from ‘Air’ in a campaign spot. Their company emphasized that they had given no permission for any political usage. Damon’s media appearances often paired film promotion with clear political answers.

John Leguizamo

Leguizamo urged Latino voters to oppose Trump and criticized immigration proposals associated with his campaigns. He wrote an op ed calling for Latino political engagement against Trump and repeated that message in later interviews. He has condemned mass deportation plans as dehumanizing. His advocacy work regularly blends with commentary on representation and civic participation.

Ron Perlman

Perlman used interviews and social media to denounce Trump in strong terms. He described Trump as a con artist and talked about organizing efforts to counter the political climate. Earlier reports chronicled his online clashes with conservative figures while he criticized the administration’s agenda. His comments fit a years long pattern of public opposition.

Sacha Baron Cohen

Baron Cohen repeatedly mocked Trump and pushed back when Trump attacked him. He responded after being called phony and continued to promote satirical work that targeted Trump’s circle. He also argued that social media platforms helped elevate Trump to power. His projects and public remarks together made his position unmistakable.

Seth Rogen

Rogen criticized Trump in interviews and at public events. He famously messaged Donald Trump Jr. urging him to ask his father to resign. Coverage later noted that a joke blasting Trump’s impact on science was cut from a televised awards show. He has consistently used his platform to oppose Trump and encourage civic engagement.

Seth MacFarlane

MacFarlane often criticized Trump’s leadership in interviews and social posts. He clashed with Fox News personalities during the Trump years and made donations to public media after a segment he rebuked. His commentary frequently focused on science, public health, and media responsibility. The record shows a clear break with Trump’s approach on those issues.
