On a recent episode of Rob Lowe’s Literally podcast, Arnold Schwarzenegger, the former Republican governor of California and Hollywood star, delivered a strong criticism of the Democrat Party.
Schwarzenegger, known for his roles in films such as Terminator and Predator, did not hold back when asked about his views on Democrats. He stated that their aim is to destroy every city in America.
Schwarzenegger’s critique comes at a time when many major American cities, mostly governed by Democrats, are facing significant challenges. These cities are experiencing a worrying increase in crime rates, including murders and carjackings, and are burdened with growing debts.

The deteriorating conditions have led to a mass exodus of residents and businesses who seek better opportunities elsewhere.
Despite identifying as a Republican, Schwarzenegger has often faced criticism for his liberal views. He supports abortion rights, advocates for action on climate change, and encourages mask-wearing and COVID-19 vaccination.
In 2021, he even drew comparisons between Trump’s administration and Adolf Hitler’s Nazi Party, causing controversy.
However, Schwarzenegger’s recent comments about Democrats indicate a shift in his political stance. During the podcast, when Lowe mentioned Republican principles like a strong military, low taxes, less government, and more personal freedoms, Schwarzenegger added “strong law enforcement” to the list.
This addition highlights his concern about the rising crime rates in cities governed by Democrats.

When Lowe expressed surprise at Schwarzenegger’s harsh assessment of Democrats and asked why they would want to ruin cities, Schwarzenegger responded, “I have no idea.”
This statement reflects the bewilderment shared by many conservatives who struggle to understand the policies and actions of the Democratic Party.
Despite his controversial views and statements, Schwarzenegger maintains his place in the Republican Party. In a recent interview with the New York Times, he affirmed his affiliation with the party and suggested that his critique of Democrats is rooted in his Republican values.
Schwarzenegger’s comments have sparked a conversation about the state of American cities and the role of political parties in their governance. As the debate continues, one thing is clear: Schwarzenegger’s voice remains influential in the political sphere, and his critique of Democrats is likely to resonate with many conservatives.
