Matt Damon is Just Like Us: Bummed by Obama


Tonight in a interview with Piers Morgan on CNN to promote is new films The Adjustment Bureau, which I can’t wait see, Matt Damon expressed his disappointment with Obama. While the actor didn’t go so far as to call POTUS

Obummer

that was pretty much Damon’s vibe when he expressed that he is

bummed out

by the way things have gone since the election. In his opinion Obama has

misinterpreted his mandate. He’s doubled down on a lot of things … In his State of the Union [address] he didn’t even say the word ‘poverty.’ You’ve got millions of people languishing in it.

Damon narrated the Academy Award-winning documentary Inside Job about the banking industry. He feels that a financial meltdown is

just going to happen again

because bankster firms

don’t make anything. They don’t build anything.

And the actor, who had strongly supported Obama during his 2008 run for president isn’t too happy about Afghanistan either:

I don’t think the mission there has been very well articulated.

Join the group, Matt.
