Kevin Spacey: Frank Underwood Would Get Behind Trump ‘To Shove Him' | TODAY

[@HarrisKhans]

"It takes two of you to replace 1 person" Spacey is just as savage as Frank Underwood.

[@razablanco3766]

He is a pedophile, I’m glad he is on your side

[@Ryanfinder226]

We all Know that Frank Underwood would totally support Donald Trump. Not because donald trump and him get along, but because he would be easy to manipulate.

[@admiralthrawnstein9943]

I think Raymond Tusk is basically the show's equivalent of Donald Trump.

[@Ryanfinder226]

+iC4snipers nah. Raymond tusk actually understood politics

[@wiet111]

+Ryanfinder226 You do know that Underwood is a democrat right?

[@Ryanfinder226]

wiet111 Irrelevant to his character. Underwood only cares about power and increasing his power. He is in the democratic party because he probably looked at the two and saw a better path to the top through the democrats. Underwood could care less about fitting in party lines but he does so for the sake of power.

[@wiet111]

Ryanfinder226 Absolutely true, but because Underwood chose for the Democratic party, it would be much easier to manipulate another democrat than a republican. Furthermore, publicly supporting a republican will probably ruin your chance to get elected, and Underwood would do anything to get elected president.

[@AntoineBandele]

Kevin Spacey is a cool dude.

[@smcg8504]

and a great singer

[@davidkim6808]

such a cool dude

[@rubenhaug3978]

Antoine Bandele XD I scroll down the comments and find Antoine bandele, my favorite Star Wars channel

[@damienscott6561]

This comment didn't aged well.

[@mrbrmb23]

If you think cool dudes are pedophiles

[@Garycarlyle]

terrible interview. they just wanted to push him to say something controversial.

[@canefan17]

Yep, media wants soundbites

[@WoodstockProd]

canefan17 funnily enough, they poke fun at that on the show

[@Ramin233]

Well, they got their news story a couple years later...he’s done terrible things

[@daath1442]

Now every day I am shocked by the sheer stupidity that surrounds me. The only way for me to accept it is to think that people are hired trolls that push a stupid narrative. In light of the news that spacey worked so closely with both a past president and Mossad agent, and how it correlates so well with the characters he plays (Hollywood), how pedophilia was used as political pressure to control certain aspect of society by people in power, in light of all this, it just showcases a) either how stupid you people are or b) how unauthentic and fake people are capable of being (prob because they are hired trolls)

[@pebba92]

Frank Underwood for president 2016!

[@FastandFurious_family4ever]

he'll start Atlas

[@LOSTTIMEBANDIT]

might want to delete your comment now...looooolz

[@manasakashi5496]

Welp

[@makeyourself1988]

Season 4 was brilliant

[@nathanielnewsnetwork1949]

[@danielkhoo925]

[@CoachingHigher]

mark rigg still can't fathom why Robin and Kevin didn't win

[@mohduroojsiddiqui1436]

[@spaceghost1721]

formuladash In hindsight, pretty terrible judgement of character.

[@terrymcginley912]

Is that his next movie child Abuser Never Heard of it!

[@Allagi22]

House of Cards is not only a fantastic show, it's an extremely important critique and analysis of the modern political process. Events in the show mirror real events happening in America, and I think it's a mighty thing. I bet when this show ends it will be analyzed by future college classes as something that truly influenced American culture.

[@DoctahToboggan69]

so weird to not hear his Southern accent for his character!!

[@Generalshouchew]

Kevin Spacey should run for president

[@eizhowa]

In retrospect, he really should have.

[@delrey874]

I recently rewatched this series and it was definitely a masterpiece until season 4. And Kevin Spacey was really a great actor....

[@joshiethevil]

Still is

[@oWetThings]

great actor

[@cybersecurity336]

+TRUTH BETOLD Now THERE'S a ticket I could get behind!

[@nikohartman]

Aww look, another intolerant liberal who can't investigate things for herself and would rather blindly trust the media that constantly lies to her. What a good little sheep! I'd advice you to just stick with the herd and your ignorance is bliss mentality, you're way better off. And just so you know, (I know you hear this all the time) life isn't a movie. Sometimes the truth sucks, and 9 times out of 10 life does not play out like a Hollywood movie plot. You should step into the real world and out of your media fantasy...judging by your posts you spend way too much time on the internet. Best wishes to you, I hope you find happiness someday.

[@steveb1008]

Spacey was FIRED from House of Cards!

[@Aimopotis]

One of the best actors, a true Great artist

[@benjimain6]

for one type of character

[@Godzillamovie1]

Kevin Spacey should run for president .🇺🇸✊

[@jimgeo1000]

I’m convinced Frank Underwood is just Spacey’s alter ego.

[@JeffFreemanPresents]

He needs an Emmy and a Golden Globe this season because he knocked it out of the park. His "strong" moments are amazing, but it's the moments when other people lay things on him, and he is absolutely and completely "in the moment." Brilliant.

[@ir0ckfartz]

i just started season 2. what a spoiler to know he became president.

[@Artyom125]

I know it’s 5 years ago but you clicked on the video.

[@hectorpinedo4514]

RUN FOR PRESIDE FRANK !!!!!! GOT MY VOTE LMAO

[@wiredshark1]

Kevin/ Frank is awesome.

[@Bob-qq4is]

House of Cards is literally about the Clintons tho

[@DucTra]

A vote for Underwood is a vote for America Works!

[@dexz8721]

I really dont care about his sexual assault stuff.. just wanna see him in house of cards s6 s7 s8 s9.... until it ends.. house of cards is FRANK UNDEWOOD

[@Bmr_moonlover]

Sadly the show ended without him, it sucked big time! Hope everything works out for Kevin Spacey🙏😔

[@un4zr3nalhaq88]

I would love him to run for office!!!!

[@Abx_Dkl]

Now who is the sexual predators...

[@manjunathsrinivas1109]

Kevin spacey lives Underwood

[@leylad5363]

Does anyone else see bill and hillary when watching frank and claire on house of cards?

[@razablanco3766]

I have a feeling that’s not all spacey would be doing behind another man/boy.

[@marshallx6081]

Thank you Kevin Spacey

[@richrome9897]

You are with Matt. In Exile

[@parisbinos]

Frank have had to understand Claire's goals far earlier

[@sneh9817]

[@MrNintendo61197]

this did not age well

[@twiho]

ONE OF THE PLAYERS? That is 68 Jaromir Jagr!!!

[@christianvillasenor5084]

Avoiding that question was a very, very good move.

[@carfco]

Four years later, and knowing what we know today... That statement didn't age too well...

[@markhoward8301]

Mr Spacey dares not bite the hand of his feeder !!

[@mrblue8439]

He seemed very down to earth. So sad to know what he had been hiding from every one

[@Bmr_moonlover]

Well he is down to earth, a funny and lovely dude. Don't believe everything the media says, think for yourself.

[@josefryan3449]

so many spoliers i was just not ready for that

[@HeyManOK]

Spacey's and Trump's stars in Hollywood Walk of Fame are one beside the other.

[@chloedancer]

Love the portrait!

[@Methefuhrer]

i'd vote for Kevin. This guy seems so cool and down to earth..

[@messiisgoat007]

I think he should run for Presidency next time in reality..

[@paxtayer1355]

[@johnbull9195]

'I have something on all the trustees' It's certainly possibly!

[@Richard1976]

She cannot be trusted and is even worse than Frank.

[@la-saint1798]

Such a good actor. Totally different from Francis

[@sagautrek]

Why is Kevin Spacey buttoning both buttons on his jacket when he never does it as Frank Underwood?

[@GodsJoseph13]

Rip

[@ericconnor8251]

Frank Underwood is basically a smarter, more "liberal" version of Nixon with all the petty, ruthless ambition but without the crippling paranoia and clumsiness of his presidency.

[@PepeTheFren]

lol, the police officers in the background...protecting the President! FU 2016 :P

[@bestboy897]

i love the watch he's wearing

[@scelestus1353]

Frank Underwood: still better than Trump and Clinton!

[@lordcthulhu3170]

[@roleychiu6024]

so people with half a leg are only half people?

[@PinotVino]

Let's not be offended about everything, k? It's getting boring...

[@FoylesWart]

Oh you're with Matt. You're all the way with Matt.And Jeffery Epstein. And Cosby. And Harvey Weinstein. You're with them forever.

[@Bmr_moonlover]

It's funny you're saying that, judging him so quickly. Were you even there when it happened? Or are you just repeating whatever the media says? Brother Christopher my advice to you, please think for yourself. 🙏🌹

[@FoylesWart]

@@Bmr_moonlover My advice to you. Do not support child molesters , sexual abusers or rapists.

[@Bmr_moonlover]

@@FoylesWart I don't. But Kevin Spacey's case is different than the others. People rushed into judgment without evidence, didn't even wait until truth comes out. I'm not defending but let's be fair.

[@musiclover8889]

i wish they would do a full cast interview everyone fro Kevin to Michael Kelly (Doug)to Elizabeth Marvel (Heather Dunbar)

[@shouldershot]

"there's one of the players there" he doesn't know who Jaromir Jagr is?

[@devonferris]

I would vote for Frank it he was a real even if he was a democrat. I usually vote republican. It's ironic that right when underwood became a president at his first term the policies that he put forth were conservative ideas and the way he dealt with foreign policies were very much conservative. Even underwood knows conservative policies is works better than liberals and in real life conservative values works better over and over again.

[@cius2112]

+devonferris That's because he's a Southern Democrat, southern democrats tend to be alot more conservative that their northern friends.

[@sofiazayas7799]

I only watched this because I'm a big panthers fan and saw it on Instagram

[@daves4189]

Any Comments on Donald Trump now Kevin?

[@jrjon738]

Waiting for season 5!!!!!!!!!

[@jrjon738]

I mean 6 haha!

[@sarinameyer4739]

"you brought binge-watching to the culture" they might have brought the term to the culture but man I've been binge watching shows since I was like 12, so for over 10 years

[@cameronhodgetts920]

Well no duh. That's just what Underwood does. If he would do it to an upstanding, capable and decent man like Walker, he would definitely do it to Trump.

Weird hearing him talk normal
