“Sex and the City” star Cynthia Nixon took a moment during the “No Kings” rally in New York City on Saturday to vent about how other countries were in disbelief at President Donald Trump’s destabilizing behavior.
“The rest of the world looks at us and is so horrified by what’s happening and can’t believe that we’ve elected this man and that we’re going along with it,” she told CNN correspondent Donie O’Sullivan in a clip shared by Mediaite. “We have to show out, as we’re doing today, in record numbers, to say this is not okay with us.”
Nixon, who starred as Miranda Hobbes on the hit HBO show and its sequel series “And Just Like That…,” said it was crucial for people to rally against Trump’s war in Iran.
“I think it’s really important for us to show up. I think it’s important for us to show up in New York. I think it’s important for us to show up across the country in big cities and small towns. And I think it’s important for people to show up across the world,” she said.
In 2018, Nixon ran against incumbent Andrew Cuomo in the Democratic primary for governor of New York but lost by a large margin. She has repeatedly spoken out against Trump’s policies, particularly their effects on the LGBTQ+ community.
