Sharon Stone sure seems to be calling Donald Trump voters "uneducated" ... which some people think misses the point entirely.

Transcript

00:00Sharon Stone is in Italy at a film festival, and you would think all she's talking about

00:06there is movies.

00:09But that was not the case.

00:10Sharon Stone brought up something, frankly, that I think is exactly what cost Democrats

00:18the election, and I think she's missed the point here.

00:23Here's what she said.

00:24Italy has seen fascism.

00:28Italy has seen these things.

00:32You guys, you understand what happens.

00:37You have seen this before.

00:39My country is in its adolescence.

00:43Adolescence is very arrogant.

00:45We haven't seen this before in our country.

00:48So Americans who don't travel, who 80 percent don't have a passport, who are uneducated,

00:58are in their extraordinary naivete.

01:03What I can say is that the only way that we can help with these issues is to help each

01:11other.

01:12So she never uses the word Donald Trump.

01:15But it sure seems like what she is saying is these people who voted for Donald Trump

01:22are uneducated and misguided.

01:26Like you are too stupid to understand who you voted for.

01:30And clearly she thinks Donald Trump is a madman.

01:32I would say that.

01:33I don't think Sharon Stone still gets it.

01:35That's why I always say, Harvey, stop calling the people who voted for Donald Trump stupid.

01:38They're not stupid.

01:40They're just not some A-list actress who hasn't had to go buy milk and worry about

01:45the price in 40 years.

01:48That's the difference.

01:49I will say this.

01:50Look, again, I don't want to take a side on this thing, but I think a lot of people say

01:56if you voted for Donald Trump, you're racist, you're homophobic, you're this and that and

01:59everything else.

02:00Yep.

02:01There probably are a lot of people who are racist and homophobic and the whole thing

02:03and xenophobic.

02:05There are also people who may have particular issues that they're concerned about.

02:09For example, maybe the biggest one, the economy.

02:12Maybe the second one, immigration.

02:14And it doesn't make you automatically racist if you voted for him for those reasons.

02:20But whether that's true or not, the reality is, is that one of the things that happened

02:27in this election that happened in 2016, you don't call people on the opposite side deplorables.

02:34You don't call them garbage.

02:36You don't call them stupid.

02:38And that happened.

02:39See, Kamala Harris, I think wisely, she attacked Donald Trump.

02:43Yes.

02:44She didn't attack the people who supported Donald Trump.

02:47Right.

02:48She didn't.

02:49Right.

02:50Her surrogates did, though, including the president.

02:51And Donald Trump attacked Kamala Harris.

02:54Yes.

02:55He also did go after people who supported her.

02:59And that's wrong.

03:00Yeah.

03:01But one of the reasons he won is because that there was this kind of movement to call people

03:08who supported Donald Trump all sorts of names.

03:10And I think they rebelled.

03:12Don't you think, Harv?

03:13They also need to if they want to win elections going forward in 26 and 28.

03:18This is not the way to approach this.

03:20You need to look and take a lesson.

03:22And most of the most of the mainstream Democrats, I think, kind of got that point.

03:26I'm just going to push back a little bit to what you guys are saying, because if you looked

03:29at Kamala Harris's campaign, I mean, she made a pretty substantial effort to bring in Republicans.

03:35You know, she was campaigning with Liz Cheney for a week during the run up to the election.

03:40She promised to put a conservative in her cabinet if she became president.

03:44I think what people are just really upset here with Sharon Stone's comments is to what

03:48you're saying, her condescending tone.

03:50Yeah, no, I agree.

03:52And Jacob, I will go one step further.

03:54It's especially bad when you get condescending if you're a big, rich celebrity.

03:58Right.

03:59I'm so sick of these actors.

04:00I think that really I mean, I don't know whether what's going to happen in the next

04:05cycle.

04:06Yeah.

04:07But you think people are going to push away from Lady Gaga and Robert De Niro and Oprah

04:12and all the celebrities who supported Kamala Harris.

04:15Right.

04:16Didn't make a difference.

04:17It means nothing.

04:18When you're that big and rich and you start getting condescending against people you disagree

04:24with, I think you have it's almost like, you know, everything has an equal but opposite

04:30reaction.

04:31Yeah.

04:32Sir Isaac Newton.

04:33I think that's where we are today.

04:34I did not think Isaac Newton was going to make his way into this.

04:37Boom.

04:38I'm Lily.

04:39I'm in London.

04:40I can see where Sharon's coming from.

04:41I can see where her frustrations lie.

04:44But to say the rest of America, to say America is uneducated when she herself is coming across

04:49uneducated, I think it's an interesting take.

04:52And at this point, you know, maybe stay quiet or do some research.

04:57That would have been smart.

04:58Don't you think?

04:59I would say so.
