Jennifer Lawrence Explained The Moment She Converted From A Republican To A Democrat
Jennifer Lawrence graced the cover of Vogue for its October issue and gave a candid interview about motherhood, movies, and other big things that have been happening in her life.

Gotham / GC ImagesShe admitted she’s even had bad dreams about Fox News’ Tucker Carlson.
Six years later, she said she’s “tried to get over it” for the sake of their relationship, but still can’t.
Stephane Cardinale – Corbis / Corbis via Getty Images“I just worked so hard in the last five years to forgive my dad and my family and try to understand: It’s different. The information they are getting is different. Their life is different,” Jennifer said.
Axelle / FilmMagic“I’ve tried to get over it and I really can’t,” she added. “I can’t. I’m sorry I’m just unleashing, but I can’t fuck with people who aren’t political anymore. You live in the United States of America. You have to be political. It’s too dire. Politics are killing people.”
