people - Sharon Stone about US election: I am deeply concerned
Hollywood star Sharon Stone expresses concern for the future of her homeland amidst the intensified US election campaign. "I am a proud American. I love my country and naturally I am deeply worried," said the 66-year-old at the Taormina Film Festival in the eponymous resort on Sicily. This is the first time someone has built their campaign on the basis of hate and suppression, Stone added.
She named no names, but she likely meant former President Donald Trump, who was recently nominated as the Republican Party's candidate for the upcoming Presidential election. He has been making controversial statements in recent months and recently complicated his rhetoric on the topic of immigration.
