And then he’d point out just how much the rest of the country absolutely hates Washington D.C. these days.

“Listen guys, people aren’t really digging me, and they f——— really hate you guys,” Arnold tells TakePart he’d say to Congress. “Let’s build something, man. Let’s put some s#*t together for the people out there who can’t stand us.”

Arnold spoke to TakePart as the kickoff entertainer in their 2012 “Why I Vote” video series featuring celebs talking about the issues that are motivating them to head to the polls this election series.
