Academy Award-winning actor Jon Voight is back with another viral video defending Donald Trump from “barbaric animals” hell-bent on undermining the United States and calling Trump the only hope to restore world peace.
The video begins with Voight against the backdrop of an American flag. The 85-year-old thespian praises former President Trump, calling him the only leader capable of saving besieged nations like Israel.
“This land of Israel is in danger. The land of the free, the U.S.A., is in danger. Let us all come together and make these countries safe again. We must stop this war,” the liberal-turned-conservative icon declared. “We must stop this darkness, this negative plague that is lingering. How? Vote for the only president who can save these countries once and for all.” (RELATED: Biden Trying To Block Trump's Efforts To Drain The Swamp)
In previous videos, the “Deliverance” star claimed that we are in the midst of a “third world war” and compared Trump's struggles to those of Jesus.
“He and only he can take this hardship and turn it into a magnificent triumph. He can wipe out this swamp and bring glory, bring justice and he will help save Israel,” Voight said.
“Peace for all nations will come to be if you all see this truth: that President Trump will step up to the plate of justice and overrule barbaric animals destroying our country, the U.S.A.,” he added.

Mediaite's Zachary Leeman provides further context for the remarks:
President Joe Biden is pressing Congress to pass a foreign aid bill that would provide funding to Israel and Ukraine. House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) split the overall aid package into multiple bills, but he's faced backlash and threats of a motion to vacate from his own party.

Voight's gushing praise followed the actor being photographed at Trump's Mar-a-Lago last week.
