During an interview on BBC One, Andrew Marr asked about whether it’s time for Hollywood or cultural elite to give Trump “a break.” McConaughey, the star of Gold, departed from the oppositional views many other actors or celebrities have taken to Trump.
“Well, they don’t have a choice now,” McConaughey told Marr. “He’s our president. And it’s very dynamic and as divisive of an inauguration and time as we’ve had. At the same time, it’s time for us to embrace and shake hands with this fact and be constructive with him over the next four years.”
McConaughey emphasized the need to be constructive with the new administration, but added, “We’ll see what he does compared to what he’s said.”
"He's our president now, we must embrace, shake hands & be constructive with him"

It's easy for a RICH WHITE MAN to tell us to embrace Trump.. Tell that to the faces of minorities, refugees and MUSLIMS. #MatthewMcConaughey

Wow, #MatthewMcConaughey could've used his voice to speak against racism, xenophobia, sexism, homophobia, etc., and he did the opposite

#MatthewMcConaughey, I will support Donald the same way Republicans embraced and supported Obama for last 8 years. It's the least I can do.

Apparently #MatthewMcConaughey has just announced his retirement.
This is just scratching the surface.
