Samuel Jackson On Trump US Election Victory: 'Why Y'all So Anxious For Me To Leave?'
By FG Dullin | Nov 20, 2016 08:40 PM EST
During the height of the 2016 US presidential election, a lot of celebrities have pledged to leave America if Republican nominee Donald Trump won. With Academy Award actor Samuel Jackson included on the list, fans have been waiting for him to either recant or truly migrate to South Africa.
However, Samuel Jackson responded in a way that is quite unique in comparison to other stars. Hence, everybody gets a scathing lecture in terms of how to correctly differentiate a personal opinion from comic parody spiel (ouch!).
It appears that the rumor started with a specific (albeit vulgar) line during his guest appearance on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" on December 8, 2015. Playing the role of "the hateful 8 ball", Jackson was quoted saying, "If that mother---- becomes president, I'm moving my black a--- to South Africa." Unfortunately, fans took his words as a legitimate political statement.
As featured in a recently published article by PJ Media, this tweet from the famous actor punctuated a strong argument against the viral rumor. An article featured in Washington Times confirms that Samuel Jackson (as stressed by his usual unfiltered language) 'is not leaving America.'
Contrary to most of the stars associated with this celebrity exodus controversy, Samuel Jackson is rightfully exonerated from criticisms by Trump supporters. Unfortunately, many South Africans were excited to adopt him as a VIP citizen. In fact, another rumor also suggests that South African film and TV series makers are vying for Samuel Jackson's name to cast in their local production.
Curiously, people are eager to hear from other celebrities who have strongly spoken about leaving America. But an article once published in Jobs & Hire feature one celebrity who took this anti-Trump migration to a whole new (insane) level. Perhaps Cher can book a one-way ticket with NASA for the upcoming Mission to Mars.
