Harrison Ford has lashed out at the President of the United States, Donald Trump, deeming him the biggest “criminal in history” and targeting his assault on climate policy.

Speaking candidly in a new interview in the Guardian, the Indiana Jones star stated in his attack that Trump “doesn’t have any policies, he has whims. It scares the shit out of me. The ignorance, the hubris, the lies, the perfidy.”

He continued, insisting that Trump “knows better, but he’s an instrument of the status quo and he’s making money, hand over fist, while the world goes to hell in a handbasket.”

The 83-year-old then went on to say, incredulously, “It’s unbelievable. I don’t know of a greater criminal in history.”

Last month, Trump deemed climate change “the greatest con job ever perpetrated on the world”, and told the United Nations, “If you don’t get away from this green scam, your country is going to fail. You need strong borders and traditional energy sources if you are going to be great again.”

Earlier this year, Ford felt the repercussions of climate change firsthand when he was forced to relocate due to Los Angeles wildfires, which were made more likely due to global heating.

Of the climate-related disasters, Ford also commented, “I knew it was coming, I have been preaching this stuff for 30 years. Everything we’ve said about climate change has come true. Why is that not sufficient that it alarms people that they change behaviors? Because of the entrenched status quo.”

Trump’s move to turn back to fossil fuels scares Ford. He said, “He’s losing ground because everything he says is a lie. I’m confident we can mitigate against [climate change], that we can buy time to change behaviors, to create new technologies, to concentrate more fully on implementation of those policies.”

However, Ford warned, “But we have to develop the political will and intellectual sophistication to realize that we human beings are capable of change. We are incredibly adaptive, we are incredibly inventive. If we concentrate on a problem we can fix it most times.”

Other celebrities, such as Joan Baez, Bruce Springsteen, Robert De Niro and Neil Young, have publicly attacked Trump in his second term as the President. Recently, the latest South Park episode has tackled his decision to demolish part of the White House to make his own ballroom.
