Sacha Baron Cohen: ‘Borat’ Sequel’s Pre-Election Release Was Timed to Highlight Trump’s ‘Slide Into Authoritarianism’

Sacha Baron Cohen said that he wanted to release his Borat sequel before the presidential election to highlight then-President Donald Trump’s “misogyny, corruption and dangerous slide into authoritarianism.” He said he also had political motive to star in The Trial of the Chicago 7, to show the “importance of standing up to racism, immorality, and police brutality.”
