Will Ferrell stars in campaign video threatening white men who refuse to vote for Harris to keep Trump out of office

Will Ferrell stars in campaign video threatening white men who refuse to vote for Harris to keep Trump out of office

Actor and comedian Will Ferrell has been recruited by Harris’ campaign in a last-ditch effort to convince voters to go to the polls on Tuesday to vote for her.

In the short 30-second video, Ferrell attempts to use scare tactics by claiming that during the 2020 presidential election, Joe Biden managed to keep Donald Trump out of office by only a “few thousand votes.”

It’s Kamala Harris’ latest attempt to use A-list celebrities to help her run for president, with some of the biggest names in entertainment coming out to support her both online and at rallies, including Beyoncé, Taylor Swift and Bruce Springsteen .

“This election will be one of the closest in history where your vote will make a difference—that means you, Gary…” Ferrell begins, speaking directly to the camera.

Actor and comedian Will Ferrell has been recruited by Harris’ campaign in a last-ditch effort to convince voters to go to the polls on Tuesday to vote for her.

“Last time only a few thousands of votes kept Trump out of office, and this time we will hold you personally responsible,” Ferrell threatens, apparently to an apathetic voter named Gary.

“Gary, don’t forget to vote for Gary!” he urges before the video ends.

Last week, Ferrell teamed up with comedian Billy Eichner in the latest effort to get out the vote for the Harris campaign, with the videos now racking up more than 100 million views.

Eichner and Ferrell took to the streets of New York City as “Kamala’s Loud White Men,” wearing matching T-shirts.

The pair screamed in the faces of several New Yorkers walking the streets, asking them who they were voting for and whether they would “sleep with a Trump voter.”

“We are here today to represent a very important demographic that votes for Kamala Harris,” Eichner says as the video begins with Ferrell next to him.

The couple ran around and shouted at several men and women whom they asked to “join the call.”

Many of those they spoke to expressed support for the vice president to take the highest office in the land and encouraged one man to shout, “I support Kamala.”

Another told celebrities that he had already mailed in his ballot for Harris.

At another point, Eichner joked that Harris would make “Buddy the Christmas Elf secretary,” referring to Ferrell’s role in the Christmas movie Elf.

They even asked two women if they would ever “sleep with a Trump voter,” to which one woman responded “no” and the other made a grunting noise.

Eichner said he decided to revive the comedy episode to “do everything we can to protect Americans from Donald Trump in these crucial final days of early voting and exactly one week before Election Day.”

Both Eichner and Ferrell have been vocal about their support for Harris, and last week Eichner posted a video on Instagram sharing his thoughts.

“It’s time to panic — and not just panic, but to do something about it,” he said.

Eichner went on to call former President Donald Trump a “rapist” and a “baby scoundrel.”

“We can’t afford a repeat of what happened to Hillary in 2016,” he said, adding: “The polls are not very good.”

“Please do everything you can because if we don’t we will regret it.”

Two days before Election Day, Kamala Harris raced through four stops in the battleground state of Michigan on Sunday.

At a rally at Michigan State University, Harris received an encouraging response when she asked who had already voted, then gave students another job to do – encouraging their friends to vote in a state that allows voter registration on Election Day.

And instead of her usual speech riffs about Trump being unstable, unhinged and seeking unchecked power, Harris tried to contrast her optimistic tone with the darker message of a Republican opponent whom she did not name.

All this was done to strengthen her position in one of the Democratic “blue wall” states in the Midwest, which was considered her smoothest potential path to a majority in the Electoral College.

Meanwhile, Donald Trump gave an offensive and conspiracy-filled speech on Sunday, recounting the shootings of reporters and suggesting he “shouldn’t have left” the White House after his 2020 defeat.

In remarks Sunday that bore little resemblance to speeches he has given at his recent rallies, the former president repeatedly questioned the integrity of the vote and revived old grievances after trying to overturn his 2020 election defeat.

Trump stepped up his verbal attacks on what he called the “demonic” Democratic Party and the American media, steering his rally in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, at one point to the topic of violence against members of the press.

He noted the ballistic glass used to protect him at outdoor events following an assassination attempt on him in July, and pointed out the holes between the panels.

“I have this piece of glass,” he said. “But all we have here is fake news. And to catch me, someone will have to shoot down the fake news. And I’m not so against it.
