Dennis Quaid Praises Trump’s Outreach to Minority Communities, Reflects on Reagan’s Legacy
Hollywood veteran Dennis Quaid, set to star in the upcoming biopic “Reagan,” recently expressed his admiration for former President Donald Trump’s efforts to connect with minority communities in New York City. Quaid commended Trump for his visits to neighborhoods like the South Bronx, where he held a landmark rally that drew thousands of supporters.
During an appearance on “Jesse Watters Primetime,” Quaid shared his thoughts on Trump’s approach, stating, “I really admire Trump for going into the neighborhoods. You know, people relate to that. They really do.” Quaid went on to praise Trump’s message of “cleaning house” and starting fresh, emphasizing that it does not equate to dictatorship but rather responding to the will of the American people.
Reflecting on former President Ronald Reagan’s visit to the South Bronx in 1980, Quaid described it as a significant moment that showcased Reagan’s courage and connection with the people. Quaid, who will portray Reagan in the upcoming biopic, highlighted Reagan’s role as a “man of the people” and a “great communicator.”
When asked about parallels between the current political climate and the 1980s, Quaid reiterated Reagan’s famous question, “Are you better off than you were four years ago?” He emphasized the importance of reflecting on past leadership and envisioning a better future for America.
“Reagan,” the biopic starring Dennis Quaid as the 40th president of the United States, is set to hit theaters on August 30. Quaid expressed pride in the film, noting that it serves as a reminder of America’s potential and the legacy of a great leader.
As Quaid prepares to bring Reagan’s story to the big screen, his reflections on Trump’s outreach and Reagan’s legacy offer a glimpse into the enduring impact of past presidents on American politics and society.
