Dejected Sally Field throws Kamala Harris signs in the trash after Donald Trump’s election victory

Dejected Sally Field was pictured throwing her Kamala Harris signs in the trash after Donald Trump’s US Presidential Election win this week.

The Oscar-winning actress hauled her Harris Waltz sign and a ‘Pro-Choice, Pro-Equality, Pro-Democracy’ placard to the dumpster on her 78th birthday on Wednesday – following Republican Trump’s landslide victory.

The Mrs Doubtfire star wore a blue tee, pale blue jacket and grey joggers, paired with sneakers for her trash run.

She failed to raise a smile after previously revealed Harris’ nomination had sparked her return to social media.

Field posted on Instagram in August when Harris officially accepted becoming the Democratic Party presidential nominee in the 2024 US election and delivered a speech at the Democratic National Convention.

‘I’ve not been on social media. Not since it became public toilet paper for our former crook of a President. But ‘hope is making a comeback.’ So here I am. This is me. And this is my dog, Dash. Buckle up,’ Sally posted along with two pictures with her dog Dash.

Field in her second post shared a pH๏τo of herself standing in front of a television as Harris accepted the nomination.

‘Hope is here. Right in the room with me and my 18-year-old newly registered to vote grandson. I’m, screaming from the highest mountain top I can find,’ Field wrote as a caption for her roughly 5,000 followers.

‘Vote for our country, our children and grandchildren. Vote for the earth and women and human rights. Vote for democracy. Vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. Please dear God. (And I’ll be your best friend.),’ she added.

Field after the 2016 election slammed Donald Trump, 78, for his lack of experience and hypocrisy.

‘If you look at his past, if you look at his history, there is no evidence that he can do one single thing that he says he’s going to do,’ she said at the time on the Chelsea Handler’s Netflix show.

‘He has shown to be everything that he accuses and has accused Hillary Clinton of being. It is now evident he is all of those things, every single thing that he accused her of,’ she added.

Last month Field shared heart-wrenching details about the illegal abortion she got in Mexico when she was just 17.

'I've not been on social media. Not since it became public toilet paper for our former crook of a President. But 'hope is making a comeback.' So here I am. This is me. And this is my dog, Dash. Buckle up,' Sally posted along with two pictures with her dog Dash

‘I still feel very ashamed about it because I was raised in the 50s and it’s ingrained in me,’ the Mrs. Doubtfire star said in a video.

‘I’ve been so hesitant to do this, to tell my horrific story. It was during a time even worse than now. A time when contraception was not readily available and only if you were married.

‘But I feel that so many women of my generation went through similar, traumatic events, and I feel stronger when I think of them. I believe, like me, they must want to fight for their grandchildren and all the young women of this country.’

She explained that at the time she had ‘no choices, family support or finances.’

‘I graduated high school but no one ever said, “How about college?” Nothing. I didn’t know what I was gonna be. And then I found out I was pregnant.’

She said a doctor and his wife, who were friends of the family, drove her and her mother in their brand-new Cadillac to Tijuana, Mexico.

In harrowing detail, she went on to say, ‘We parked on a really scroungy-looking street. It was scary and he parked about three blocks away and said, “See that building down there?”

‘And he gave me an envelope with cash and I was to walk into that building and give them the cash and then come right back to him.’

Sally described the abortion, which took place before the now-overturned Roe v. Wade Supreme Court ruling, as ‘beyond hideous and life-altering.’

The procedure was performed with ‘no anesthetic’ with just a ‘technician giving me a few puffs of ether but he would then take it away, so it just made my arms and legs feel numb weird, but I felt everything — how much pain I was in.’

To make matters worse, Field realized that the technician was actually molesting her: ‘So I had to figure out, how can I make my arms move to push him away? So it was just this absolute pit of shame. And then, when it was finished, they said, “Go go go go go!” like the building was on fire. They didn’t want me there — you know, it was illegal.’

In her caption she said that reproductive rights is ‘one of the reasons why so many of us are supporting Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.’

‘Everyone, please, pay attention to this election, up and down the ballot, in every state – especially those with ballot initiatives that could protect reproductive freedom. Please. We can’t go back!’

In conclusion, she wrote: ‘So here is my story. I’d be honored if you’d tell me yours, if you can.’

Field won the Academy Award for Best Actress for her work in the 1979 film Norma Rae and the 1984 movie Places In The Heart.

She also was an Oscar nominee in the Best Supporting Actress category for portraying Mary Todd Lincoln in the 2012 movie Lincoln.

Field in Norma Rae played a factory worker fighting for union protection and has used her platform over the years to support women’s rights.

She was arrested in 2019 while participating in Jane Fonda’s climate change protests in Washington, DC.

Field started her acting career in the TV comedy Gidget in 1965 and won the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Limited Series or Movie for her work in the 1976 two-part TV movie Sybil about a woman with multiple personality disorder.

Her film credits include: Forrest Gump, Steel Magnolias, Smokey and the Bandit, Mrs. Doubtfire, The Amazing Spider-Man films and the 2023 sports comedy 80 For Brady.

Field was honored at the 2019 Kennedy Center Honors in Washington D.C.

She also was bestowed with the Screen Actors Guild Life Achievement Award in 2023.
