“No offense to the seniors out t,” Shannon told Metro newspaper.
In the same interview, Shannon offered advice to young people whose parents supported Trump: “You’re an orphan now. Don’t go home. Don’t go home for Thanksgiving or Christmas. Don’t talk to them at all. Silence speaks volumes.”
EW caught up with Shannon at an event in New York to promote Nocturnal Animals, one of the 10 films in which he’s appeared this year.
Tom Ford’s dark, slippery thriller features Shannon in a supporting role as a Texas lawman seeking justice for the victim of a violent attack.
One of the movie’s many themes focuses on how anger can ultimately lead to catharsis – a notion Shannon is quite keen on right now.
Shannon added, “I’ve heard a lot of people saying, ‘Oh, we should give [Trump] a chance, it’s not that bad.’ And I’m like, ‘No, you’re wrong. Just look at the news. It is that bad.'”.
Despite the Trump victory, Shannon hasn’t lost his deadpan sense of humor – or his impeccable timing.
