Indiana Jones actor Harrison Ford has publicly endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris ahead of the US elections. The elections are scheduled to be held on November 5, 2024.
In a video shared by the Harris-Walz campaign handle, Ford says that it is important to pay attention when dozens of former members from the Trump administration are warning and standing against their leader.

“Look, I’ve been voting for 64 years. Never really wanted to talk about it very much, but when dozens of former members of the Trump administration are sounding alarms, saying, ‘For God’s sake, don’t do this again,’ you have to pay attention. They’re telling us something important. These aren’t soft people.” Ford said in the clip sharing his views on the presidential elections in 2024.
“They’re governors and generals standing up against the leader of the party they spent their lives advocating for,” Ford said while signalling towards Trump administration. “For many of them, this will be the first time they’ve ever voted for someone who doesn’t have an R next to their name, because they know this really matters.”
The Star Wars actor urged people to vote for Kamala Harris. He slammed Trump for demanding loyalty from the people for his vengeance.
“The truth is this: Kamala Harris will protect your right to disagree with her about policies or ideas. And then, as we have done for centuries, we’ll debate them, we’ll work on them together, and we’ll move forward. The other guy, he demands unquestioning loyalty, says he wants revenge.”
“I’m Harrison Ford. I’ve got one vote, same as anyone else. And I’m going to use it to move forward. I’m going to vote for Kamala Harris,” he concluded.

Harrison Ford’s other videos in support of the campaign
Harrison Ford released two other videos supporting Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. In the second video, the actor said that though he doesn’t agree with them on every single policy, they are believers in the ‘rule of the law’.
“They believe that when you govern, you do so for all Americans. They believe that we are in this together. These are ideas I believe in. These are people I can get behind.” Ford said.
Reflecting on his frustration about other things, he blames Trump for turning people against each other. He adds that America needs a president who will work for the country.
“But the other guy, he spent four years turning us against each other while embracing dictators and tyrants around the world. That’s not who we are. We don’t need to make America great again. Come on, we are great, but what we need is to work together again. What we need is a president who works for all of us again.”
In the third video, he encourages voters to change their perspective and focus on their surroundings. He asks them to interpret who is encouraging you to build something, instead of looking at your neighbours with suspicion.
“If you’re still on the fence, here’s a good thing to look at: Who’s trying to scare you into voting for them? Who’s trying to make you look at your neighbors with anger, suspicion, hatred, and who is encouraging you to build something with the people around you?” he said. “It would be really nice to move forward.”
