Mark Ruffalo<\/a> made a blunt political declaration while teasing a possible run for office.<\/p>\n On Saturday, January 10, the Avengers<\/em><\/a> star spoke with Us Weekly<\/a> at the All the President\u2019s Men benefit\u00a0reading for the Stella Adler Foundation in Los Angeles, California.<\/p>\n When asked about his potential political aspirations, Ruffalo, 58, confessed, \u201cIt isn\u2019t on my game card right now, but who knows. I mean, you never say never.\u201d He continued, \u201cI mean, I spent a lot of time in that world, and acting\u2014it\u2019s for the people. So, I love the people, and politicians could be doing something good for the people.\u201d<\/p>\n The 13 Going on 30<\/a><\/em> actor also shared his thoughts about Zohran Mamdani<\/a> becoming the mayor of New York City after beating Andrew Cuomo<\/a> and Curtis Sliwa. Ruffalo shared that the win \u201creally excited\u201d him when it comes to \u201cwhat\u2019s possible\u201d in the U.S.<\/p>\n Additionally, the environmental activist spoke on the pervasive political idea that change is too expensive or takes too much time to accomplish.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s bulls\u2013t,\u201d Ruffalo bluntly pointed out. \u201cAnd the people in America are suffering. If the people in America weren\u2019t suffering, we wouldn\u2019t be where we are right now.\u201d<\/p>\n He explained, \u201cYou know, it\u2019s a failure on both parties. They become completely captured by corporations, both parties. And it\u2019s time for a new America that is for the working people who were the plurality of this country.\u201d<\/p>\n In addition to his environmental activism, Ruffalo has spoken out on a variety of political topics through the years. He called out, via Instagram<\/a>, President Donald Trump<\/a>\u2018s deployment of ICE in cities across the nation in June, writing, \u201cThe beige brigades now roaming the streets like packs of coyotes are no different than the cross burners from before. They are just as racist and got it just as wrong. They hide their faces for shame or fear or justice and stamp their boots on your right to a fair trial.\u201d<\/p>\n He added, \u201cThe billionaire up at the top is stealing you blind, and you are worried about the poorest of the poor ruining your life? You are pointing your guns in the wrong direction.\u201d<\/p>\n What do you think about Ruffalo\u2019s political stance?
