Jennifer Lawrence revealed in a recent Vogue interview that she is unable to move past her family’s right-leaning political positions, especially in the wake of the reversal of Roe v. Wade and the birth of her baby son.
She told the fashion mag that her distaste for conservative politics extends past her waking hours – she has nightmares about Fox News host Tucker Carlson.
The 32-year-old actress, who was raised in Kentucky, told Vogue that she has spoken with her therapist about a recurring nightmare of hers that prominently features the immensely popular right-wing commentator.
Carlson, 53, has previously called the Oscar-winner ‘out of touch’ owing to her views on climate change.
The Kentucky native specifically mentioned the issues her father’s Trump support have caused, ‘I just worked so hard in the last five years to forgive my dad and my family and try to understand: It’s different. The information they are getting is different. Their life is different,’ referencing the information conveyed by the top news host to her parents and those like them.
The new mom said to the publication, ‘I’ve tried to get over it and I really can’t. I can’t.’
But not being political is also a deal-breaker for the Oscar winner.
‘I can’t f— with people who aren’t political anymore. You live in the United States of America. You have to be political,’ she said, indicating that she has left her family with the choice of being political in a way she agrees with, or not f—ing with her, and no third option.
‘It’s too dire. Politics are killing people,’ the actress known for dramatic turns said.
