The 2024 presidential campaigns are progressing in full swing with former U.S. president Donald Trump facing off against his Democrat opponent, Kamala Harris. At one point in the past, Hollywood actor Brad Pitt had tried to understand the mindset of people in America who supported the Republican presidential candidate Trump. It turns out, Pitt failed to reason with the Trump supporter’s mindset.
