The actor has previously been an outspoken critic of Tr*mp, and said that she considered leaving the country after his reelection. She even gave the keynote speech at the LA āTrans Liberation Now!ā rally, saying,
“The real enemy is not actually trans people. The real enemyās not migrants, or poor people, or homeless people, or any other scapegoat that they claim. The enemy clearly is the plutocrats, the oligarchs, the billionaires and corporations who create these issues to divide working-class people.ā
Cox shocked fans recently by taking to social media and proudly discussing her recent past relationship with someone who stands for everything that Laverne had – in the past – so strongly stood against:
“He is a blonde hair, blue-eyed MAGA Republican voter who is a New York City police officer. We were madly in love. I did not develop any of these politics. I still have my own,” she continued, before calling him “hot” and teasing that fans could “hear more about that” at her show.
Needless to say: Her fans weren’t really wanting to hear more about it at her show. They had heard enough lol. Laverne received some backlash in the comment section of her socials, which she’s since responded to:
“You are able to look past the fact that someone voted against your community and basically everything you representā¦? I donāt get the punch lineā¦ nor does this entice me to want to go to a show to figure out how you justify this.”
