Seagal also spoke out against Obama operatives working against
Donald Trump in the White House. The actor complained that "we have these Democrats that have this whole other agenda," saying that the President “gets blocked often

The patriotic statements were especially shocking in the wake of Seagal angering some fans by becoming a Russian citizen in 2016. Seagal had been “asking quite insistently over a lengthy period to be granted citizenship,” said Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Pesko.
