Alec Baldwin Criticizes 'Uninformed' Americans Following Trump’s Election Victory

The actor, speaking at an Italian film festival, attributed Trump’s win to a lack of awareness on key global issues and highlighted the role of film in bridging informational gaps.

Alec Baldwin described American voters as 'uninformed about reality' during a press conference at the Torino Film Festival in Italy.
Baldwin suggested that gaps in U.S. media coverage on global issues like climate change, Ukraine, and Israel contribute to public misunderstanding.
The actor emphasized the importance of narrative and documentary films in educating audiences about critical global challenges.
Baldwin’s remarks followed President-elect Donald Trump’s recent victory over Vice President Kamala Harris, who performed worse than President Joe Biden in most states.
The comments drew backlash online and from public figures, with critics accusing Baldwin of elitism and dismissiveness toward Trump supporters.
