Arnold Schwarzenegger wages a fierce campaign against Trump | Video
Former California governor and action star Arnold Schwarzenegger once again criticized President Donald Trump, saying he would be remembered as "the worst president ever".
Schwarzenegger released a video message to his followers talking about the recent events at the US Capitol, where at least five people were killed in the chaos, including a veteran Air Force fighter and a police officer.
In his message to the Americans, which he shared on Twitter today, Sunday, the Hollywood actor referred to the storming of the US Capitol on January 6, as thousands of Trump supporters stormed the building and clashed with police officers and forced lawmakers to seek shelter.
Schwarzenegger compared the events on Wednesday with Kristallnacht in 1938, when the Nazis violently attacked the Jews, and the police did not intervene to prevent the massacre.
He continued, "Wednesday was Broken Glass Day here in the United States," the broken glass was in the windows of the United States Capitol Building, but the mob was not satisfied with smashing the windows of the Capitol Building; They shattered the ideals we took for granted. "
The Hollywood actor and former California governor criticized US President Trump, claiming that his tenure in the White House will soon be forgotten.
He also accused Republicans (though nobody in particular) of enabling Trump to "his lies and betrayals."
Describing President Trump as a failed leader, Schwarzenegger said, "He will go down in history as the worst president ever," adding that "the good thing is that he will soon be as irrelevant as an old tweet."
Toward the end of his letter, the former governor of California pulled a sword, apparently dating back to 1982 when he played Conan the Barbarian.
The actor metaphorically explained that the more the sword sank in fire and water, the stronger it became, comparing steel to American democracy.
Schwarzenegger added, "Our democracy is like the steel of this sword, the more sharp it becomes, the stronger it becomes."
Schwarzenegger has been a critic of Trump for some time.
And earlier this week, he published an article in The Economist in which he criticized Trump's challenges to the 2020 election results.
The former California governor described Trump as a "selfish" president and urged lawmakers to support congressional approval of Joe Biden's election victory.
