Hanoi Jane is back, folks! Yes, the same Jane Fonda who made headlines during the Vietnam War. This time she’s out knocking on doors in Michigan to rally support for Kamala Harris. The Democrats and their media buddies think this is a brilliant move. But do they really get what Americans feel about Fonda’s past?
Remember those antics from years ago? Many Americans sure do. Back in 1972, Fonda pulled a stunt that left our veterans fuming—a political move in Vietnam that still echoes today. Yet here she is, campaigning like nothing happened.
The Daily Mail gives us the lowdown:
Fonda’s jaunt through Michigan is stirring up emotions. An 86-year-old activist now, she was seen cozying up to residents of Ann Arbor, urging them to back Harris and Walz in the upcoming election.
“I’ve never done it for a president,” Fonda declared with all seriousness while sporting a pinstriped gray suit. “But this is most important.” Cue an emotional hug with a local who seemed genuinely moved by her presence.
Yet not everyone is thrilled about her involvement—especially those who haven’t forgotten her controversial Vietnam escapades when she called for ending the war and even traveled there.
Here’s a video that’s making waves online:

Over on Twitter (or X if you’re fancy), people have plenty to say:
Always a good idea to have Hanoi Jane go door to door through the heartland. I'm guessing the group is steering clear of the houses with POW/MIA flags or signs in the yard.

Knocking doors in the most liberal city in Michigan in a D +30 district seems like a tremendous waste of time. I would expect nothing less of Hanoi Jane. https://t.co/U4ioUN8yKQ

It seems like every time you scroll down your feed, there’s another hot take about why having Fonda out there isn’t exactly winning hearts across America.
So what’s driving Jane this time around? Some say it’s just more virtue signaling—an attempt to show her left-wing pals that she’s still got skin in the game. Whether she’s truly invested or just putting on a show remains up for debate among skeptics.
In any case, one thing’s clear: bringing Hanoi Jane into politics again has stirred quite a pot!
