Chris Pratt Faces Backlash After Defending RFK Jr. and Trump

Chris Pratt has come under fire after defending Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and former President Donald Trump during a recent appearance on Bill Maher’s podcast. Pratt, who is married to Katherine Schwarzenegger, Kennedy’s cousin, spoke about the positive personal experiences he’s had with RFK Jr. at family gatherings. Despite acknowledging that he doesn’t agree with everything Kennedy says, Pratt defended his cousin-in-law, calling him a ‘great’ and ‘funny’ person, and criticized the culture of political polarization that tarnishes his image. However, his comments have sparked a wave of criticism, with many fans expressing disappointment, particularly over Kennedy’s controversial stance on vaccines and public health. The backlash has been intense, with numerous fans vowing to stop supporting Pratt’s work. Critics point out that Kennedy has propagated medical misinformation and undermined trust in public health institutions. Pratt’s stance on RFK Jr. and Trump has reignited questions about his political beliefs, which he has kept largely private, despite his strong Christian faith. Many fans now feel disillusioned by Pratt’s comments, accusing him of making ‘dense assumptions’ about important political issues.
