Donald Trump continues to gather names for his administration, in this case three well-known Hollywood actors: Jon Voight, Mel Gibson and Sylvester Stallone, who will be Special Ambassadors in Hollywood, California.
He said so through a statement on his social network, Truth Social: “I am honored to announce that Jon Voight, Mel Gibson and Sylvester Stallone will be special ambassadors in a great, but very conflicted place: Hollywood, California,” he began by saying.
“They will serve as my special envoys for the purpose of bringing back Hollywood, which has lost a lot of business over the last four years to foreign countries, bigger, better and stronger than ever before! These three very talented people will be my eyes and ears, and I will do what they suggest. It will once again be, like the United States of America itself, the Golden Age of Hollywood!” he said.
Why did Trump choose Jon Voight, Mel Gibson and Sylvester Stallone?
Stallone, 78, has a great relationship with him, and the actor has even referred to the mogul as the “second George Washington”. “We are dealing with a truly mythical character. No one in the world could have achieved what he achieved, so I am amazed,” he said.
“When George Washington defended his country he had no idea that he was going to change the world because, without him, we could not imagine what the world would be like. Guess what? We have the second George Washington. Congratulations!” he said.
For his part, Gibson, at 69, already endorsed Trump in 2016 and 2020, and is doing so again now. “I don’t think anyone is surprised who I vote for,” he told TMZ.
Voight, 86, has always declared himself a fan of Trump, stressing that he is the “greatest president since Abraham Lincoln”. “Don’t be fooled by the political left because we are the people of this nation who are witnessing triumph. So let’s support our president, let’s support this truth that President Trump is the greatest president since Abraham Lincoln. God bless America,” he wrote on social media in 2019.
