Alan Ritchson, star of the smash hit series Reacher on Amazon, recently referred to former Florida congressman Matt Gaetz as a “motherf***er,” and an “adversary,” before going on to drop the hammer on Democratic Socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont, asking what the guy has actually accomplished in his political career.
You know, Alan, I don’t think any of us can find or identify any semblance of accomplishment during the tenure of Sanders’ not-so-illustrious time in public service. Laziness and doing nothing do tend to be character traits of those deeply attracted to socialism, you know.
In a recent interview conducted with GQ Magazine, Ritchson seemed to suggest that he and the former congressman are locked into some sort of epic, cosmic battle for the ages, a feud of near biblical proportions.
“That motherf***er. We are adversaries,” the Blue Mountain State star went on to say in reaction to GQ dropping Gaetz’s name. The actor and Gaetz once attended school together a long time ago and in a galaxy that’s the same as the one you and I are currently living in.
“It’s shocking to me that the panhandle of Florida continues to vote for somebody — knowing everything we know about him and the promises that he’s made behind closed doors about pardoning certain criminals — he’s just not a good dude!” Ritchson passionately stated.
“The actor went on to say that he sometimes desires to get involved in politics, just to outshine Gaetz’s career, but that he doesn’t think he would make it in that industry due to not being deceptive enough, bizarrely and amusingly seeming to suggest that the industry he currently works in — Hollywood — is somehow devoid of deceit,” Breitbart reported.
“There’s part of me that wants to get into politics to outdo somebody like him for good, and there’s part of me that’s like, I’m not duplicitous enough to succeed in politics,” Ritchson said during the interview with GQ.

He then turned to slamming those who do “a good job” in politics, but are ultimately, “ineffective,” going on to cite Bernie Sanders as his prime example.
“There’s part of me that wants to get into politics to outdo somebody like him for good, and there’s part of me that’s like, I’m not duplicitous enough to succeed in politics,” Ritchson said to GQ.
Most celebrities have an inflated sense of their own self importance. I’d say Ritchson sort of has that going on, but not nearly to the level a lot of Hollywood losers do. He just shares his opinion and that’s that. I can respect that.
Of course, he’s still a leftist and has really, really bad political views, but hey, that could change, right?
One thing we can both agree on: Bernie Sanders sucks.
