title:  WATCH: Patrick Stewart Is Doing Something AWESOME So He Can Fight Back Against Donald Trump
text: Sir Patrick Stewart, like any sane person in or outside of the U.S., has a severe problem with Donald Trump and everything he stands for. He s so determined to oppose Trump in everything he does that he s doing something absolutely incredible: He s applied for U.S. citizenship. Speaking on  The View,  he said his friends were telling him how he can help: All of my friends in Washington said,  There is one thing you can do. Fight, fight, oppose, oppose. But how do you do that when you re a resident and citizen of a foreign country? Yes, Stewart is British and the U.K. is one of our biggest, best and closest allies, but he s still a foreign national. It seems he feels that, as a foreigner, his ability to help us out is limited. Joy Behar jokingly asked him if he d be willing to take Trump off our hands, and his initial reply was,  We have our own problems.  That was in reference to Brexit, which was the dumbest thing a Western nation had done in recent history right up until we told the U.K. to hold our beer while we held an election. But then he dropped this: I m not a [U.S.] citizen. However, there is, maybe it s the only good thing, as the result of this election: I am now applying for citizenship. Because I want to be an American too. Is there a more meaningful way to help us resist the growing corrupt, authoritarian regime occupying the White House?
