Is Russia At War With…Morgan Freeman?

Blame it on Trump.

Russia meddled in the 2016 elections, our current President appears to be BFFs with Putin — and now the communist country is harassing Morgan Freeman. Fix it, Jesus.

Russia is pissed that Morgan Freeman appeared in a video accusing the country of waging "war" on America during our last presidential election. Just a couple of things the Oscar winner said: Putin is a "former KGB spy" and "during this past election, we came under attack by the Russian government." President Putin's press secretary, Dmitry Peskov, clapped back by saying the accusations were "groundless and of an exclusively emotional character."

Then, the foreign ministry spokeswoman, Maria Zakharova, ranted on Facebook that Morgan Freeman is "duped," and this is all a distraction to stop an investigation of Obama wiretapping Trump. WTF?
The bigger question is why is Russia so upset about Morgan Freeman? Countless Hollywood stars have blasted Russia. Is Morgan Freeman some type of honorary god in Russia and they feel betrayed. Bizarre AF.
