Susan Sarandon: Hillary Clinton Supporters Harassed Me On The Phone

Susan Sarandon says Hillary Clinton supporters harassed her on the phone to the point where she had to change her number. Watch below.

Sarandon appeared on Wednesday’s “The View” to discuss her FX series, “Feud.” But before the chat wrapped up, the outspoken celebrity activist was asked to weigh in on the current state of politics. When Joy Behar pointed out the actress “took a lot of heat” for supporting Bernie Sanders and Jill Stein over Clinton, she revealed, “I had to change my phone number.”

“The Hillary people [would angrily call], ‘Are you happy now?!'” Sarandon confessed. “I would’ve ridden [it] out, but my sons explained to me that once they have your number, they can hack into everything so I had to change my phone number.” She didn’t say how her number was obtained in the first place, but admitted she’s “still trying to remember” the new one.

Asked how Donald Trump is doing, Sarandon exclaimed, “Oh, he’s terrible.” Although it’s a “heyday for comedians” now, she complained, “He doesn’t have a follow-through, this guy. He likes signing [bills]. It’s like he’s playing president, but he doesn’t know the ramifications a lot of times. He hasn’t thought it through.”

She is great in 'Feud' according to reviews. She is like many older actresses in that there are too few parts for them.

Not that she has to like everything Hillary stood for, because she has the right to. However, Ms. Sarandon was also oddly obsessed with criticizing Hillary in the way that she did, while pretty much ignoring tRumputin and saying that his presidency might not be the worst thing to ever happen

She also said something along the lines of being happy that tRumputin's presidency has the populace awake or something of that nature.

Too bad that some in that populace whose probably faceless to her will be dying along the way if health care is chipped away @ by Count Dracula Price, Lyin' Ryan & losin' tRumputin. But I'm pretty Ms. Sarandon doesn't give ONE shit about that faceless part of the awoke populace which could be "thrown over the side to die" so to speak just like slaves were when they were going through the Middle Passage if that populace she spoke of who has their health taken away from them, and especially so if they have a pre-existing condition or is battling Cancer or some other deadly disease.

Ms. Sarandon is a damn FOOL

messages intercepted, and that number could then be used to get into other things when they have mobile berification set up on something. It not a super technical thing, really. It involves entering a password during the initital greeting of some voicemail systems. And it's a password a lot of people are unaware of or never bothered to change, so you could get into a lot of phones just knowing the default password. Remember all the phone hacking and message intercepting that caused a scandal with Piers Morgan's tabloid

And selfish.

She's been called on being an asshole for trump, so she had to make up something. She probably got a call or two from some of her hollywood acquaintances about being stupid, but the rest is just made up. Are her sons stupid too? That isn't how you get hacked.

Then on top of it all, she compares the absolute tragedy and terror of having to change a phone number with everything trump has done. So it's okay to ruin lives and wreck the country because - horror - she had to have her number changed.

What a complete ass.
