In recent years, more than in his role as an actor, Jim Carrey has been focused on the most political part of his life. Frontally opposed to the administration of Donald Trump, the interpreter of The mask The Two dumbs so dumbs He has been a staunch opponent of the president who left the White House on January 20. In fact, Trump became the main target of the cartoons between comedians and critics that Carrey drew by hand and hung on his Twitter profile. Up to now. The actor has announced that he wants to stop.
It has also been in his twitter account, with almost 19 million followers, where the actor has explained that he is going to take a break. “Colleagues … over the past four years, among other purposes, I have devoted considerable effort to this collection of political protest cartoons,” it reads in the text you have posted with precisely a background vignette. “Really, I feel like you and I have crossed an ocean of anger together, but something tells me it’s time to put the hammer of social media to rest and claim a little more neurological broadband.”
Afterwards, Carrey makes a small apology to his followers. “If it could have seemed that I was ignoring my Twitter followers, here or beyond the US and Canada in my crusade to liberate our democracy from the Orange Julius Caesar and his Empire of Lies, it has not been my intention. I have simply assumed that a radicalized America is a threat to all of us. When a crazy guy grabs the wheel of a bus loaded with innocent passengers and threatens to tumble off a cliff, he tends to attract attention above all else. “
Carrey cartoons portraying Donald Trump have become very popular on the web. So much so that the actor himself offered the Smithsonian Museum in Washington one of those vignettes to become the official portrait that the gallery has of each of the presidents. “Dear Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery, I know it is early, but I would like to present this as the official portrait of our 45th president,” he joked when he made, three years ago, a drawing where Trump was seen with his mouth open, bare chest and ready to eat a great ice cream, and that was titled You scream, I scream. Will we ever stop screaming?
