I feel like this is a question better suited for an executive to answer. There's no need for Tom Cruise to talk about Trump or tariffs at all, at least while on a press tour.
He is an executive. He's often the head producer of his films and will direct the stunts.
I think because he's involved with the film it's more than fair to ask him the question, but the actual executives who deal with things like licensing agreements and setting various fees to lease the rights for the content would have better and more accurate answers on this situation than Tom Cruise.
Sure. However I was answering your question.
Everyone with a platform to speak about fascism in their country should talk about the fascism in their country.
We're talking about a Scientologist here, not exactly known for their freedom loving ways.
