The actor sounded the alarm on the rise of authoritarianism around the world.
Film star Richard Gere slammed President Donald Trump and warned of the rise of authoritarianism globally during an awards show in Spain over the weekend.
“I’m coming from a place now that we’re in a very dark place in America, where we have a bully and a thug who is the president of the United States,” Gere, 75, said as he accepted a lifetime achievement trophy at Spain’s Goya Awards on Saturday.

“It’s everywhere,” he said. “Everywhere.”
