In a brief conversation withHollywood Reporter at the Cannes Film Festival,the Do The Right Thing directordidnt mince words about the commander-in-chief:Hes not my president. I call him Agent Orange.

There was some clip I saw yesterday of him dancing with the Saudis that was just ludicrous, Lee said about Trump recent foreign trip to Saudi Arabia. Not only is he not a good president, he cant dance either, Lee said while laughing. He could be impeached on his rhythm. Hes the clown with the nuclear codes.

Lee endorsed Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders for president in a radio ad last February and blasted the Democrat partys rigged primary system.

When asked if he ever came around to supporting Clinton, Lee unloaded on the former frontrunner.

Have you read the bookShattered? Great book, Lee said of the new Clinton campaign tell-all,Shattered:Inside Hillary Clintons Doomed Campaign,which offers ablistering behind-the-scenes look at how Hillary Clinton lost the election.

Hillary comes with entitlement. They thought they were entitled to this and despite what you might think, you gotta work, Lee explained. If youre chilling at Marthas Vineyard, and think Its a done deal. But it wasnt. Theres one thing you can learn from sports. To quote Yogi Bear: It aint over til its over. They thought it was theirs. Shit dont work like that.

TheChi-Raqdirector also said he wouldnt support actor and former professional wrestlerDwayne Johnson as a presidential candidate without first knowing his politics. Johnsons name has been floated as a possible Democratic contender to take on Trump in 2020.

No. Well, Id need to know how he stood on issues.Lee said, adding that Johnsons presidential ambitions, real or not, comes off as unauthentic, given Trumps jump from reality TV host to 45th president.The thing is, everyone thinks they can be president. Like, Look, that guy did it.

Lee is attending the Cannes Film Festival in France this week. The filmmaker moderated a Q&A with singer Elton John on Monday.
