The actress, who is promoting her new animated film “Kahlil Gibran’s The Prophet“, said she would actually be more surprised if Trump “did something courageous and meaningful that nobody found out about”.

“Some I assume are good people, but I speak to border guards and they tell us what we are getting”, Trump was quoted as saying during his speech.

During a recent public appearance, Mrs. Pinault was confronted about the situation and she surprised everyone with her response, “I know him [Trump] a little bit, and I know it is a mistake to respond to anything he says because he will only use it for self-promotion. At least he brought a light into a real problem”. “The Mexican community can be mad because I haven’t said anything…but I refuse to even pronounce his name and let him use me for publicity”.

But Salma Hayek does believe Donald Trump serves a positive objective in America, if only to demonstrate the discrimination that minorities face in America every day from people like Trump, who often get away with holding bigoted opinions. She has also been nominated for two Emmy Awards and a BAFTA Award. Other voice actors in it are Quvenzhané Wallis and Liam Neeson.

“We have a big problem, the Mexican-American actress told Entertainment Tonight. They are profound thinkers”, Hayek said. It will be followed by a national release later that month.
