Screenwriter, director, and Academy Award winning actor Sean Penn told CNN’s Piers Morgan on Monday that the tea party is literally crazy and needs help. Apparently serious, Penn told Morgan that “there’s a mental health problem in Congress,” which “would be solved by committing them by executive order, I think.”
“Because these are our American brothers and sisters, we shouldn’t be criticizing them, attacking them.” Penn said. “This is a cry for help.” Morgan then asked, “You literally commit what, people like Ted Cruz?”
“He is my American brother,” Penn said. “I think we should take care of him, he is in trouble.”
When Morgan asked if Penn actually thinks we should have Ted Cruz committed, Penn replied. “Yeah, I think it’s a good idea,”
Penn then went on to decry how Americans find “ways of self-destructing by saying nasty things about each other and being crazy.”
