Actor Dennis Quaid on Faith, Freedom, and What Election Is Truly About
Вставка
- Опубліковано 31 лип 2024
- When celebrated actor Dennis Quaid examines today's political landscape, he sees a situation reminiscent of the one America faced in the late 1970s and early 1980s. "The times are very much like they were back in the late 70s, before [Ronald] Reagan came to office in 1980," he told CBN News. "[With] Iran, we had the hostages, the Soviet Union ... to buy a house, interest rates were 20%." He continued, "There was this feeling of malaise in the country, like we were a declining nation, that ... we had a weak president."
Quaid portrays Reagan in the new feature film, "Reagan," which releases nationwide August 30, 2024. "I was offered this movie six years ago ... and I did not say, 'Yes' at first, because, tell you the truth, it kind of scared me to death," Quaid said. "Reagan is ... like Muhammad Ali, one of the most recognizable people in the world. ... He was my favorite president. I voted for him."
The complexity of playing such a known individual - someone with whom the public has both memory and reverence - is tough. But Quaid eventually capitulated and took the role. "This fear went down my spine, and usually that fear is a sign that I should ... get out of my comfort zone," he said. "I had two years to really prepare for the role." With the film coming out during the 2024 election cycle - one that could be historic in more ways than one - Quaid encouraged Americans to come together, even amid so much divisiveness.
"We've got to get to a place in this country where we could talk to each other across the aisle ... because we need each other," he said. "Republicans, Democrats, we need each other. We keep each other from going out too far this way or that, and we're all Americans." Quaid, a lifelong Independent, has voted "both ways" throughout his life based on what he believes America truly needs. This time around, the "Reagan" star said he'll vote for Trump.
"For me, this election [is] beyond personality and all that," he said. "The election is really about the Constitution and when I see the weaponization of the justice system." Watch the video for more of Quaid's views, and find out more about the movie here.

Love Dennis Quaid even more now. So spot on, not religion but relationship, through Jesus. 💕 Look forward to seeing the movie!
I always admired Dennis Quaid as actor. I'm pleasantly surprised to find that he is a guy with a heart, a soul, and a brain.
Dennis, your face glows with the Holy Spirit!! I can see your spiritual growth!!
THANK YOU DENNIS QUAID for inspiring me.
Papa, thank you for marking Dennis Quaid as your own. I know you treasure him. HalleluJAH!!! Your Kingdom Come!
God bless you Dennis, and all your family!
I really love your movies . You’re such an awesome actor
Amazing!
Praise the Lord for your testimony Dennis! Beautifully said. May God continue to bless & use you for His glory 🙏
Voting military absentee from West Germany felt like hope for future patriotic support at the time, needed good substantial leader, feel like he did that...in USA and the world. Definitely a hard person to portray.
Ohhhh, hallelujah 🙌 ❤praise God!!
Love to hear that Dennis has been led to a relationship with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!
Looking forward to seeing the movie! God bless!

The first time i got to vote was when stationed in Turkey 1980. In the Army, i thought there would be war with the Soviet Union. Still, i knew he was the right president. God bless you, Dennis.
Love me some humble Dennis.
Mr. Quaid God Bless you, thanks for the many years of your amazing work. You bring joy into peoples homes and I am so grateful you are on out side during this constitutional crisis!
I do hope to see your movie!! Love you at Grand Ole Opera!!! Glad you acknowledged our Lord and Savior. See you on the other side!!❤❤❤
Sir Dennis you sound like the wise man who stored up great wealth in heaven.
I am proud to hear.

Thank you for doing this movie, I also loved President Reagan, I enlisted in the U.S Navy in 1986, I must watch this movie Dennis Quaid,
God bless you Dennis Quaid and your loved ones in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ!✝️🙏❤️
I remember after Reagan was elected, the sales of American flags skyrocketed. I was on a bus in a quiet New Hampshire town and out in the middle of a field was huge sign with Reagan's name on it. In my opinion, the timing of this movie is in God's hand and it is supposed to be released during an election year. I hope it spurs people who are on the fence and tend not to vote, to get to the election polls. I am looking forward to seeing the movie.
God bless you Dennis.l May the Lord richly bless you.
It took me awhile too. To see myself. Change course / heading / destination/ Pre determined/ Before the world began.
The only genuine source of faith is Gods word . Therefore studying the Bible àt àll times is a must for a life of faith, this is a must in order to be free from every pollution in the world. Pst Comfort Udosen
Looking forward to seeing the movie, I'm sure Dennis did a great job. But I totally could have seen Jim Caviezel play that role!
Thank you for your openness! How do you plan to improve your skills in content creation? 😘🍭
America is receiving its rightful judgment
"Who's the best pilot You ever saw?"
☦☦☦🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤
What’s that lump on your forehead Mr Quaid? Would love to see this movie. ❤
I would love someone in the media to ask if his opinion had changed at all with Project 2025 being more heavily discussed. I've always loved his work and he seems like a thoughtful, intelligent person who considered his choice thoroughly. I was surprised to hear he would endorse Trump even if he feels Biden isn't the way to go, so it would be neat to see what he thinks.
11:03 what weaponization? What are you talking about?
Oh Dennis... 🤦♀️
