Kangana Ranaut Would Have Voted For ‘Total Killer’ Trump If She Were American, Says Actress

As the United States readies to vote in one of its most contentious presidential elections, Indian actress Kangana Ranaut has publicly voiced her support for former President Donald Trump, endorsing him for a second term. Although Ranaut, an Indian citizen, is ineligible to vote, she shared her endorsement with her followers on social media, making headlines around the world.

In an Instagram post, Ranaut shared a viral image of Trump from earlier this year, taken shortly after an attempt on his life during a Pennsylvania rally. She captioned the image with strong admiration, saying, “If I were American, I would vote for the one who got shot, dodged it, got up, continued his speech. Total killer.”

This post reflects Ranaut’s admiration for Trump’s resilience amid turmoil, a quality that has gained him a dedicated following. The incident she referenced occurred on July 13, a pivotal moment in the 2024 election cycle.

Attempted Assassination on Trump Marks a Historic Moment

The assassination attempt took place during a campaign rally, shocking supporters and opponents alike. As Trump delivered his speech, gunshots rang out, and he appeared to be struck. According to eyewitness accounts, Trump momentarily touched his ear, realizing he was bleeding, before collapsing. Secret Service agents quickly shielded him and escorted him offstage. Remarkably, Trump managed to rise to his feet, clenching his fist and shouting “fight, fight, fight” before leaving the stage—a gesture that has since become an iconic image.

The attack has only bolstered Trump’s base, who view it as emblematic of his tenacity. Despite facing multiple legal challenges and controversies, Trump remains a significant contender in the race, where he faces Vice President Kamala Harris, who would become the nation’s first female president if elected.

Kangana’s ‘Emergency’ Set for Release

While Ranaut’s endorsement of Trump has generated considerable buzz, her own political drama, Emergency, is also in the spotlight. The film, in which Ranaut portrays former Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, recently cleared certification with the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) after facing delays. Ranaut announced on social media that the release date for the film will soon be revealed, thanking fans for their patience.

The film has faced opposition from Sikh organisations, including the Shiromani Akali Dal, over allegations of misrepresentation, stirring debate across India. Despite these controversies, Ranaut is set to proceed with Emergency, marking her return to the big screen in a highly anticipated project.
