Sharon Stone tackled the re-election of Donald Trump with some harsh words at the Turin Film Festival in Italy.

The Casino and Basic Instinct actress was on a panel with Angelina Jolie when the topic shifted to politics. Stone, who was awarded the festival’s Stella della Mole prize, was asked her thoughts about the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women.

“You know, Italy has seen fascism,” she said, according to The Guardian. “Italy has seen these things. You guys, you understand what happens. You have seen this before. My country is in adolescence. Adolescence is very arrogant. Adolescence thinks it knows everything. Adolescence is naïve and ignorant and arrogant. And we are in our ignorant, arrogant adolescence. So, Americans who don’t travel, who 80 percent don’t have a passport, who are uneducated, are in their extraordinary naïveté. What I would say is that the only way that we can help with these issues is to help each other.”

“I respect the results of the vote,” Stone added. “Even if I don’t like the president, I respect his role. This is democracy. I don’t know what will happen in the future, I’m not a fortune teller. I don’t even know if there will be an authoritarian turn: There are 200 people in government who have to convince 200 million people in society. It won’t all happen in an instant.”

Speaking about the reasons for the defeat of Democratic candidate Kamala Harris, Stone said: “Did we really get to know her, in just three months and with just one TV debate? Was she the right person? … I can’t say.” Asked if she would ever enter politics herself, Stone replied, “Me? Oh, Jesus, no!”   

Stone’s viral comments follow Alec Baldwin making somewhat similar remarks at the festival a few days earlier. Baldwin was at the Turin Film Festival to receive its Lifetime Achievement Award.

“You know what’s going on from the news, but information in America is driven by money,” he said. “It’s a business. That’s why there’s a void in information on the biggest issues in the world. Americans know little or nothing — on climate change, on Ukraine. That void is filled in part by the film industry, by documentaries and narrative films.”
