Actor Diego Luna wrapped up his week of guest hosting ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Thursday by giving an ode to Kimmel, where he claimed that the regular host is needed to preserve democracy.

Luna claimed that, “I know there is a lot of focus in your media about the differences between our cultures and the violence south of the border, but I hope, this week, I was able to open up the dialogue. We should be doing more of that. Telling our stories and finding what connects us. Yeah. We shouldn't let our cultural exchange be divided by borders, by ignorance, by fear, or a wall built by your president.”

Next, Luna tried to suggest Trump is a dictator, “We're going through a hard time. Authoritarian leaders and expressions are on the rise, and it's happening everywhere. Leaders who attack the press, use the military against their own citizens, and claim they have the answer to everything. Does that sound familiar?”
