‘Anchorman’ director Adam McKay ditches Dems, says ‘no group is worse than white liberals’

"Man, it is incredible to watch people this far down the road still say you gotta stand behind the Democrat Party. The same party that wouldn’t convict Trump of a crime after he told a crowd ‘Go to the Capitol,’" McKay told the Urgent Futures podcast. "The same party where the previous presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton, literally funded Trump’s campaign."

McKay, director of films such as Don’t Look Up, Anchorman, and Talladega Nights, announced he was leaving the Democrat Party in the wake of the 2024 election that saw Trump defeat Kamala Harris. He said he could "list 400 things" that the party failed on, including keeping "healthcare private," and said that the Democrats are masters at "manipulative marketing."

"We are being hit with the high-grade marketing and no group is worse than white liberals. I mean, they are the worst," he said. I’ve tried to talk to them about climate, they are so smug and captured. And it boils down to privilege. I mean, when you talk to white moneyed liberals, they’re getting a lot from this broken system."

"So at some point, I realized these are bad-faith arguments and conversations. So I don’t really do it anymore. I reached the same place with Republicans back in 2006, 2007, where it’s just like I’m not doing this anymore. And so, yeah, once you kind of flip that switch and realize white liberals are full-on right-wingers, and that Republicans are extreme right-wingers by any international definition of right-left wing, you can’t support a party that doesn’t want universal healthcare."

He said that "no group of people has, you know, heads full of bees more than white liberals." He said he’s heard "the craziest sh*t" from white liberals," saying that "they’re coming from a place of they don’t care. They have privilege. They’re trying to stay in their class social scene. They’re more worried about their alumni cocktail hour and not stepping out of place. They have killed us moe on climate inequality."
