<p>Actor <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/dennis-quaid-says-hes-really-nervous-about-playing-joseph-curl/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dennis Quaid</a> warned on Friday that a big enough power grid failure would make the COVID pandemic &#8220;look like a kids&#8217; show.&#8221;</p>
<p><a href="https://dailywire.com/news/itll-cancel-itself-dennis-quaid-rips-cancel-culture-talks-upcoming-reagan-biopic-new-film-in-exclusive-interview/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Quaid</a> explained just how problematic such a failure could be during an interview with Fox News host Jesse Watters – and he pointed out how it could quickly impact nearly every aspect of human society.</p>

<p>Quaid, who recently voiced the documentary &#8220;<a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt20782654/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Grid Down, Power Up</a>,&#8221; suggested that the United States was making a mistake in not doing more to prepare for a potentially catastrophic failure of the power grid.</p>
<p>Referencing his own 2004 climate disaster movie, Quaid explained, &#8220;There have been several attacks on substations. I heard about one a couple of months ago. This is not &#8216;Day After Tomorrow&#8217; by the way, this is tomorrow, I think. It could happen.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Just 30 days without electricity, it would take us back to 1880. You wouldn’t be able to get gas. You wouldn’t be able to get food,&#8221; Quaid continued, adding that even law enforcement would be severely limited as police officers were forced to stay home and care for their own families.</p>
<p>Watters pointed out the fact that a lack of power would impact people&#8217;s ability to find clean water to drink as well.</p>
<p>&#8220;This is something that if it does happen, it’s going to make COVID look like a kids show,&#8221; Quaid said. &#8220;We keep talking about it, but nothing ever gets done.&#8221;</p>
<p>Later on in the segment, Watters pressed Quaid on his politics and asked whether he found it difficult to speak his mind in Hollywood. The &#8220;Midway&#8221; actor said he hadn&#8217;t really felt pressure not to speak up — largely because he was an independent who had, at times, voted for both major parties.</p>
<p>&#8220;Depending on which way the pendulum goes,&#8221; Quaid explained, adding with a laugh, &#8220;I&#8217;m not really happy with the way the pendulum is right now.&#8221;</p>
<p>He argued that Republicans and Democrats needed each other in order to find the best possible balance — but he worried that people were more divided than they had been at any time in his life.</p>
<p>&#8220;It usually takes some kind of big thing like World War II really brought — you know we really got our act together when that came up,&#8221; Quaid remarked, and Watters asked whether he thought something like that would happen if there was a major power failure.</p>
<p>&#8220;Oh yeah. For sure. It&#8217;ll be — we&#8217;ll be back to tribal law by that time,&#8221; he said.</p>
