10 Celebs Who Support Donald Trump
Donald Trump is the kind of guy you either love or hate. The business owner and former reality television star officially announced his decision to run for president last summer, and since then he has definitely gotten more than his fair share of media attention. His opinions and ideas have made him one of the most controversial presidential candidates of all time. Since he began his campaign, he has insulted and angered people globally - but he has also gained a lot of support. Politicians such as Sarah Palin and Jeff Sessions have voiced their support for him, but some celebrities have also publicly come forward to show their support for Trump. For Trump, this is pretty awesome news. Celebrity endorsements can help politicians and benefit their compaigns. Here are 10 celebrities who want Donald Trump to be the next President.
10 Azealia Banks
Back in February, Azealia Banks revealed on Twitter that she plans to vote for Donald Trump. Confusingly, she doesn't actually seem to like him at all - instead she thinks he is the most honest about being evil, which is the kind of leader she thinks America needs. Here is what she said: “Ok so, I think I'm ready to admit that I'm going to vote for Donald Trump… I think Donald trump is evil like America is evil and in order for America to keep up with itself it needs him. And to sum up my rant: I am saying that politicians are inherently evil, I trust the one who is most transparent.” Weird, right?
9 Mike Tyson
The boxing champion is a proud Trump supporter and has defended him on numerous occasions. In October, he declared to the Huffington Post that Trump “should be the president of the United States.” Tyson went on to explain: “Let's try something new. Let's run America like a business… Whoever can do the job, gets the job.”
8 Charlie Sheen
At first, the Anger Management star seriously disliked Trump, calling the presidential candidate a “shame pile of idiocy” and a “sad and silly homunculus” in a poem on Twitter. He later had a change of heart after hearing Owen Wilson comparing Charlie Sheen to Donald Trump during an interview with The Daily Beast. He tweeted that he would be honored to be Trump's vice president.
7 Tila Tequila
Tila Tequila rose to fame on MTV's A Shot At Love, and now she is back in the media after declaring her support for Donald Trump. She even uploaded a Youtube video about her support for him back in October. In the video, she reflects on how she judged him for The Apprentice, before realizing she has also been judged by others. She said: “I looked within myself and realized, Wow, Tila, you are judging him how people are judging you.” She also claims to be "anti-vax" and she agrees with Trump's stance on vaccinations, stating: “Guys, seriously. Wake up, open your eyes. Trump is the man.”
6 Stephen Baldwin
Stephan Baldwin and Donald Trump met on the The Celebrity Apprentice, and Stephen returned the show quite a bit, so they know each other fairly well. In July 2015, Baldwin told CNN: "Well, he fired me twice. But I think he's fantastic." The actor, who started as Fred in The Flintstones, thinks that Trump will make a great president because he is a business man instead of a politician. He went on to say: "That's why he's surging in the polls. He's saying what he thinks." Baldwin also stated that Trump often says the wrong thing, but in doing that he gets people to start talking about important issues. Hmm.
5 Kid Rock
Kid Rock is a proud supporter of Trump, and he even spent an entire Rolling Stone interview talking about his support. He said, “I'm digging Trump" and claimed that Trump is treating his campaign like a business and that's why he likes it. Kid Rock is certainly loud and proud when it comes to his support for Donald Trump, but he did also add that he's "not an expert at political science or anything.”
4 Hulk Hogan
Hulk Hogan just might be Trump's biggest supporter. He doesn't just want to sit by and watch Trump win -- he'd rather be his running mate. Last August, he was asked by TMZ which presidential candidate he would like to fight in the ring. He replied, “I don't want to be in the ring with any candidates. I want to be Trump's running mate.” He later went on to comment that "Vice President Hogan" had a nice ring to it. Careful, Charlie Sheen - you've got competition. Maybe the trio could join up together as a team - not to run the country, but to host a comedy TV show. We would watch it.
3 Ivana Trump
One of Trump's most unlikely supporters is his ex-wife, Ivana Trump. The 67-year-old has announced in an interview that she will be voting for her ex-husband in November. She said, "Yes, of course I'm going to vote for him. He's going to run the country as a business. He's going to negotiate. And he knows how to make decisions.” She is also confident that he will succeed, or at least that's what she told People. Apparently she isn't surprised to hear he is running for president, either; she revealed to the New York Post that he had mentioned running for president decades ago, and that Ronald Reagan even encouraged him to do so.
2 Kirstie Alley
The actress and comedian tweeted in September that she liked Trump after watching his 60 Minutes interview with Scott Pelley. She said she disagreed with the way Pelly interviewed him, and then in January she told FoxBusiness that she wants "someone that will rev us up and make us pay attention. Donald Trump, whether you like him or don't, he's waking this country up." In April, she officially announced her support on Twitter: "HELLO BOYS! this is my formal endorsement of @realDonaldTrump & I'm a woman! (last I checked) And Rudy, U R amazing!"
1 Teresa Giudice
The Real Housewives of New Jersey star may have spent most of 2015 in prison, but she knows exactly who she wants to vote for in the next election. She told Andy Cohen back in February that she was voting for Trump, saying: “Of course I'm going to vote for Donald Trump. I think he's amazing. I think he'll make a great president." Giudice starred alongside Trump on The Celebrity Apprentice in 2015 and she came in at fifth place, so the two know each other fairly well. She won't actually be able to vote, as she'll still be serving parole during the election, but she has definitely made her political viewpoints known.
