'The only way [Republicans] can stay in power is to press the racist button and hope that people either go with them or ignore it and look the other way.”

After an intense conversation about Republicans on MSNBC on Monday, Tony-nominated actor Jeff Daniels emphasized to Newsweek that America is at a crossroad with President Donald Trump in the White House.

Aside from getting out and voting, Daniels said that people need to do more than just sit on their phones and watch television. “I remember seeing a lot of people at marches over the last couple of years,” he said, referencing the Women’s March and people who took to the streets to protest sexual misconduct in light of the #MeToo movement.

Daniels suggested the younger generation should become more involved. “There are young people in this country who I just want to look at them and go, ‘It’s your country now.’”
