Jim Carrey "I'm doing cartoons because I can't just watch this nightmare unfold"

The Golden Globe award-winning star has come under fire about his abstract artwork's insensitive depictions of Donald Trump, Melania Trump and members of Trump's administration.

Carrey wasn’t shy about expressing his scorn for Trump and admitted that his displeasure for the president heavily affected his decision to draw cartoons.

“I’m doing cartoons because I can’t just watch this nightmare unfold. I have to make it into something that is at least creative and decent,” he stated. “Even if it’s crass at times, it’s the crass that I’m expressing that everyone wants to express but can’t necessarily do so in their own lives.”

“So, when I stick a flag in Trump’s a-- it’s because that’s what everyone is seeing – they’re seeing him owned, and I have to express that. And, sometimes that’s the most crass way that I can express it because I’m done with it. I’m done with liars,” he said.

1. He's right. The talented artists like himself, and writers, express my thoughts ...

The talented artists like himself, and writers, express my thoughts and feelings that I am unable to express that well (plus I don't have that celebrity platform...not that I have the talent to take advantage of that, even if I had it).

I will see his cartoon, or read someone's tweet or article, and I think, "That's it. That's exactly what I noticed or thought or concluded."

I'm so surprised at Jim Carey's talent. I guess I'm out of it, but I had not idea he was that talented. He really is a good artist, in that genre, whatever you call it.
