WATCH: Has-Been Actress Molly Ringwald Claims Trump Supporters Will Be Tried as ‘Collaborators’ When Leftists Regain Power
Actress Molly Ringwald has described the Trump administration as a “fascist government” and warned that supporters of the president’s policies, particularly on immigration, could face consequences if Democrats regain power.
Ringwald, known for her roles in Sixteen Candles and Pretty in Pink, posted a four-minute video on social media comparing Trump supporters to collaborators in Nazi-occupied France during World War II.
“I feel like I can’t stay silent, and neither should you,” Ringwald said. “There’s something horrible going on in our country right now — we had one of the greatest countries in the world — but right now, this is a fascist government.” She added, “It’s not becoming a fascist government, it is a fascist government. ICE is brutalizing people.”

In the video, Ringwald drew a parallel to Nazi-occupied France, saying, “If you look at what happened in France, they were taken over by the Nazis. A lot of people collaborated, and then there were people that did not collaborate and were part of the resistance. Eventually, they got their country back, and those who collaborated were found to be criminal.” She suggested that Trump supporters could face a similar reckoning.
“That is what’s going to happen. You should not support what is going on,” Ringwald said, warning that continuing support for President Donald Trump could mark someone as a “collaborationist.”
Ringwald has previously criticized the Republican Party and commented on the racial composition of her films, including The Breakfast Club.
