CNN anchor Chris Wallace just put Reagan star Dennis Quaid on the spot about his support for former President Donald Trump.

During a new interview for his Max series, Whos Talking to Chris Wallace, the veteran journalist tried to make Quaid think about how much todays MAGA-infused Republican Party strays from President Ronald Reagans classic approach to conservative politics.

In a clip previewed by Mediaite on Thursday, Wallace wondered how the actor could square his admiration for the 40th president with his endorsement now of Trump, noting how many claim there would be no room for Ronald Reagan in Donald Trumps Republican Party.

Well, I really dont agree with that, in a sense, said Quaid, who stars as Reagan in the new Cold War-era biopic directed by Sean McNamara.

Yes, Ronald Reagan was a man of his times, Quaid said. And Trump is also, hes a man of his times. But I do feel that the principles of Ronald Reagan and the principles of Donald J. Trump are very similar.
