Elizabeth Banks Calls Out White Women Who Voted for Donald Trump Over Kamala Harris
Banks said she does not understand the 53% of white women who backed Trump and said Effie Trinket reflects a turn toward resistance.
- On Tuesday, April 14, actress Elizabeth Banks criticized the 53% of white women who voted for President Donald Trump over Kamala Harris in 2024, appearing on Bustle's One Nightstand podcast.
- Banks urged women to emulate her Hunger Games character, Effie Trinket, by becoming 'revolutionaries' against what she described as a 'fascist regime,' citing Trinket's evolution from regime beneficiary to opponent.
- The actress, 52, noted that Trinket initially propped up a system she benefited from before realizing its injustice, mirroring Banks's own campaign work for Harris on the Reproductive Freedom Bus.
- White House Spokesman Davis Ingle dismissed the remarks in a statement to Fox News Digital, saying 'nobody in their right mind cares what out-of-touch woke celebrities in Hollywood say or think.'
- The Hunger Games franchise is moving forward with the prequel Sunrise on the Reaping, featuring actress Elle Fanning as a younger Effie Trinket, as Banks continues promoting her Peacock series The Miniature Wife.
