15 December, 2015:Â Actor Will Smith said during a Sunday interview that Republican frontrunner Donald Trump’s “crazy” national security comments may force him to run for president.
The 47-year-old actor said the offensive comments Trump made about Mexican and now Muslims are crazy, as reported. He elaborated: “If people keep saying all the crazy kinds of stuff they’ve been saying on the news lately about walls and Muslims, they’re going to force me into the political arena.â€
After Smith was asked to clarify which office he’d seek, he said, “I mean, I gotta be the president, Come on! How you gonna ask me that?â€. “What else would I run for?†he added.
Smith said he advises his kids to “be as unrealistic as possible, and then figure out how to make it real.â€
“The best things that have ever happened, ever, were unrealistic before they happened. So for me, I think being the biggest movie star in the world as a goal actually was too small!â€
