Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Ex-Wife Maria Shriver Once Credited Donald Trump for Bringing a Huge Change in Their Kids: “I as a Parent Wasn’t Really Successful”

Arnold Schwarzenegger has not only proved himself as an ace bodybuilder but also as an able administrator. Having presided as the chair of the 38th Governor of California, Arnold’s involvement with politics is not new. Being selected as the governor, he brought in many crucial policy changes.

Having different ideologies, Arnold and the ex-US President hold contradicting viewpoints. Arnold never shied away from expressing his disagreement with Trump. This time Arnold’s ex-wife Maria spoke up, but not with Trump’s disapproval!

On the eve of President’s Day weekend, Maria took up the pen to express her views. Drawing a parallel between the foundation that the forefathers have built and the President overseeing it, Maria praises Trump, but for some different reasons!

She stated, “Donald Trump has unleashed something that few other politicians have been able to do.” Crediting him further, she added, “He did something in my own home that I, as a parent, wasn’t really successful at doing.”

Maria added further that Trump made her children take more interest in civics and the government. Seeing a positive change, she said that the children have become more aware; they engage in talks, check the news, and are even aware of the names of the people “in the room.”

Arnold’s views on Trump say otherwise

Maria has showered praises on Trump and credited him for making the youth more active in the “democracy.” However, Arnold came down heavily on Trump during the Capitol Hill riots. In strong reprimanding words, Arnold posted a video message.

Speaking out to the public, The Terminator star appeals to the public to come forward ‘together.’ Citing his life example, he said, “My father and our neighbors were misled also with lies, and I know where such lies lead.” Visibly disturbed by the events, Arnold held up the Trump administration accountable for their failure. Further, in the video, Arnold called the then U.S President a “failed leader.”
