Susan Sarandon has no regrets for her refusal to vote for Hillary Clinton, and the actress-activist in no way feels responsible for Donald Trump's shocking electoral win. In fact, she blames journalists like Chris Hayes for failing to cover the issues.

Sarandon appeared on MSNBC's "All In with Chris Hayes" on Wednesday night to give the nation an update on her convictions about the election. In March when she was a surrogate for the Bernie Sanders campaign, she seemed to suggest on Hayes' show that Trump would be a better alternative for progressives than Clinton.

"Some people believe Donald Trump will bring the revolution immediately," Sarandon said. "If you think it is pragmatic to shore up the status quo right now, then you are not in touch with the status quo. The status quo is not working."

Presented with the then-hypothetical choice of Trump or Clinton, Sarandon said, "I don't know."
