Josh Brolin remembers Donald Trump before he was elected President of the United States.
During a recent interview with The Independent, Brolin said he understands Trump from a different perspective, as he was his “friend” before he became president. This understanding reassures Brolin that Trump will not seek a third term, a possibility that circles some political circles and is sometimes raised by Trump himself.
Brolin said, “I’m not afraid of Trump, because even though he says he’s going to be around forever, that’s not going to happen.” “And if that happens, I’ll deal with that moment. But having been Trump’s friend before he became president, I know a different person.”
The “No Country for Old Men” star met Trump during the production of Oliver Stone’s 2010 financial drama “Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps.” Trump was set to appear in the film, but was ultimately dropped.
Brolin later said he found Trump’s past entrepreneurial interests “interesting”, noting the move to a big development “in the middle of a crappy city in the late ’70s.” However, now seeing him as President, he sees his authority as “unlimited power”.
Brolin still had some praise for Trump, adding, “There is no greater talent than him at marketing – he understands a weakness of the general population and fills it. And that’s why I think a lot of people think there’s a mascot in him. I think it’s less about Trump than it is about the general population and their need for validation.”
