The Hunger Games actress opened up during a new appearance on The New York Times podcast 'The Interview', and shared that she no longer plans to share her political views or criticise Trump.
Previously, Lawrence has been outspoken in her dislike and criticism of Trump, particularly during his first term in office.
During her interview with The New York Times she was asked of her opinions of Trump now that he is in his second term in office, to which she responded with stating that she is reluctant to share her views the way she once did.
“I don’t really know if I should. The first Trump administration was so wild and just how can we let this stand? I felt like I was running around like a chicken with my head cut off. But as we’ve learned, election after election, celebrities do not make a difference whatsoever on who people vote for,” she said.
“So then what am I doing? I’m just sharing my opinion on something that’s going to add fuel to a fire that’s ripping the country apart. We are so divided," she continued.
Lawrence also shared that she has been thinking twice about sharing her political opinions as she does not want to limit her job oppurtunities within the film industry.
“I want to protect my craft so that you can still get lost in what I’m doing. And if I can’t say something that’s going to speak to some kind of peace or lowering the temperature or some sort of solution, I don’t want to be a part of the problem,” she told the host of 'The Interview'.
“I don’t want to make the problem worse… You watch these actors’ faces who have had incredible careers and made incredible contributions and then one half of the internet doesn’t want to see their face anymore. I get so upset for those people and it feels so wrong," Lawrence continued.
