'Wake up America': Jon Voight's rallying cry for Trump's return in 2024!

In a world of stars and spotlight, it's rare to find a cinematic legend like Jon Voight, voicing his political beliefs with unbridled passion. Reflecting back on 2022, as reported by Daily Mail, this Academy Award-winning actor took the internet by storm with his ardent plea urging for former President Donald Trump's return to the White House in 2024.

Voight's Viral Video: More Than Just Pixels and Sound

"Shot on an old cellphone," Voight's video may not have had the 4K resolution, but the message was in high definition. "'My fellow Americans, we are in danger of a third world war," began the 'Midnight Cowboy' actor. He talked about the "dark world" that America was becoming and how change was on the horizon.

From the Silver Screen to the Political Arena

Voight isn’t just known for his compelling performances. His political stances have been as gripping as his roles. Having renounced his liberal views of the 60s and 70s, the veteran actor has since become an outspoken supporter of the Republican Party. Voight's video didn’t stop at just being an impassioned plea; it was a call to arms with the instruction: "'Wake up America'".

An Academy Award and A Presidential Medal

The actor's camaraderie with Trump isn't just political; it's personal. Trump awarded the National Medal of Arts to Jon Voight in the East Room at the White House back in November 2019. This bond was even more evident in September when Voight interviewed Trump for Newsmax. Though, humorously, it was Voight who dominated the conversation, even prompting Trump to comment, "'I didn't have to do too much talking'".

A Walk Down Voight's Memory Lane

While most remember Voight for his Oscar win in 1978 for 'Coming Home', his personal life has been equally newsworthy. Married first to Lauri Peters and later to Marcheline Bertrand, the actor's political transition over the years has been evident.

His belief in Trump's potential return was unwavering. As the actor himself put it, "'People say to me all the time, will Donald Trump run? I say he certainly will run, but we can't wait too long.'"

Whether or not you resonate with his political views, there's no denying the magnetic pull of Voight's conviction. Here's looking back at that moment in 2022, when an actor's passion collided with politics, creating a viral sensation.
