He's off to a great start pretending to be a 'president' again. He has no idea what a President does or how to manage an entire country. America voted for an idiot 2 times. The con man will do nothing to make america 'great'.
They didn't vote for him the first time, and they didn't vote the second time.
Technically he still didn't win a majority of the vote a single time.
Holy shit... this isn't an Onion article?
Sounds to me like they want to make propaganda films.
I think he wanted Goebbels too
It sounds to me like the dying gasp of a cocaine-fueled homerotic roadtrip in California somewhere.
Gibson, who recently lost his home in the Los Angeles wildfires, told Variety that he had learned of his new position through Trump’s social media. “I got the tweet at the same time as all of you and was just as surprised.
LOL what?! So Gibson didn't even know this was going to be a thing?
Trump is consistent if nothing else. He really loves stupid and crazy people.
They make him look good and normal.
Well. Not exactly.
Stupid? Would a stupid man star in Baby Geniuses 2? I'll just leave this here. youtube.com/watch?v=sT3coep3EW0
There was a moment they normalized the ass hat. I really think Vic intentionally (or unknowingly) it.
Mel Gibson is mostly known these days for being super racist, which is why this announcement is not surprising at all.
I'm expecting him to announce they're bringing Seagal back from Russia.
Yep that will definitely bring down the price of eggs.
Oh yay, McCarthyism is coming back too!
When exactly did it leave? Communist just got replaced with something else
It got replaced with wokeism
Oh, you mean not being an asshole?
Trump has the Midas touch, for pointing out shitty people.
The Mierdas touch, as some day
He really does, I was 0/2 and then saw Stallone and thought "oh shit, I missed something".
I don't think the biggest problem of Hollywood is the lack of Republican meddling.
And it shows that only Hollywoods has-beens are rooting for Donald.
I thought that Stallone was a pretty decent guy, did I miss anything?
Yeah, everything about Stallone
I'm out of the loop on pretty much everything to do with celebrities. Was there something big?
He loves Trump.... Whether that is "big" or not depends on you, i guess.
Everything...? That is not helpful
He called Trump "the second George Washington", otherwise spent years "staying out of politics" but also making sure to pretend he isn't Republican by saying "people think I'm Republican because of Rocky and Rambo."
Surprise. Was Republican.
You get to decide if supporting Trump is a deal breaker. It sure should be. (Unless you are an enemy of the USA or a Billionaire)
Source: Googled it just now. Feel free to add or correct.
I knew Gibson was shitty but these two are news to me
Voight has been famously shitty for a long time. I'm surprised James Woods wasn't on this list.
.... is this just for optics or some sort of play at media control?
I wish mell would have stayed home.
Cant wait for the US government to subsidize the production of The Expendables 2025 starring Donald Trump and a band of old fuckers nobody cares about anymore saving an election from being stolen by some racist charicature.
I hope Gibson ends up in a rack, Voight in a K car, and Stallone in an F1 car he can't drive.
I saw this earlier and thought it was satire. What in the fuck!?
Voight is still alive? Huh.
NO! Not the three most talented and in demand actors in the world! These guys just ooze charisma, audiences will be lining up to agree with the important and valid opinions illustrated in their well produced and even WELLER written films!!! The kids are gonna be doing flossing to this now!
Huh, mcCarthyism 2.0.
This time, it's even DUMBER
yeesh, this doom hole keeps getting deeper
What a blowhard. And when he's done blowing Putin, I'll bet his face looks like a housepainter's radio.
Scraping the bottom of the barrel of has-beens to find someone willing to work for him. I think that says a lot about Donald the Jester (of King Elon).
