Actor Sean Penn Melts Down Over Trump — Says He ‘May Destroy The World’ and Likens Him to a Murderer (VIDEO)

Actor Sean Penn is the latest Hollywood celebrity to melt down over Donald Trump.

In a podcast appearance with former CNN host Jim Acosta and California Rep. Eric Swalwell, Penn suggested that Trump may “destroy the world” before his presidency is finished.

Here is a transcript of the exchange:

ACOSTA: Bukele needs to be told, like, there are going to be other administrations that are going to come in here that are not going to look too kindly on this. What you’re doing down there.

SWALWELL: Jim, Bukele should be told that, the law firms that are caving should be told that, the colleges that are cave in should be told that.

The CEOs who have antitrust suits against them and are trying to find their way out by donating to his inauguration funds or helping him in some other way, they should be taught that.

We’re taking inventory of who’s trying to do these one-off anti-democratic deals with Donald Trump. There’s going to be a day of reckoning and accountability because the president’s poll numbers are under 40% right now.

I mean, he’s in a free fall as far as his poll numbers. And we’re putting more and more seats in Congress and in the Senate in play. And so we expect a wave-like election, and we’re preparing for that. And we are going to be a check that is not there right now.

And so, yes, he should think twice about what the long-term future of El Salvador is if Donald Trump is no longer in power.

PENN: But before Bukele gets to that point where he’s dealing with another leader, we should consider worst case scenarios.

And I do think it’s a reasonable theory that Donald Trump is not unlike the spouse of someone who leaves him, perhaps for another, who then murders their former partner because if they can’t have her, nobody can.

And I think Donald Trump and his solipsism may have that relationship with the world and that this destruction is in part a power play. And also a literal intention of his final out.

ACOSTA: You think he’ll try to stay on?

PENN: I think he might try to destroy the world before he ages out of life.

SWALWELL: I just, in the history of dictators or those who aspire to be dictators, there’s never a succession plan, right?

There’s never, and that’s what worries me is if he doesn’t believe there’s somebody who can protect him, that he, you will see him ratchet up, you know, what he’s willing to do to the country to protect himself.

Back in 2022, Penn pledged to join the Ukrainian war effort against Russia, although that never materialized.

That same year, he also claimed that those who refused to take the dodgy COVID jabs were criminals.
