Actor Jim Carrey has likened U.S. President Donald Trump's administration to "a rabid dog."

Speaking at the Los Angeles premiere of his new Showtime TV dramedy "Kidding" Wednesday (5 SEPT. 2018), the 56-year-old Canadian actor, who received United States citizenship in 2004 and remains a dual citizen of the U.S. and Canada, said people should try to see beyond the political divisiveness of the country that Trump's election has caused.

"This administration is a rabid dog and it's turning us upside-down. And, as far as I'm concerned, it's as obvious as the nose on your face, you know? But people have made these elections and politics in general who they are. And it's not who you are. You can make a bad decision about a candidate. It's not who you are. It doesn't mean you're dumb. It doesn't mean you're different."

He added saying, 'I can break bread with anybody in this country," he continued. "I love people in this country. I love the heartland of this country. It has nothing to do with that. Is has to do with: It's become obvious that the choice was a bad one. We just need to change it. And if you can't vote for a Democrat, at least let all this flood of information that's so negative and so obvious keep you home.'
