For whatever reason, we mortals are obsessed with what the “Hollywood gods” think. It’s true that not everyone is enchanted by the “Hollywood gods,” but admiration for a musician or artist can creep up even on those who aren’t. The loud voices of the Left may make those on the Right feel that they are in the minority. We get extra energy when someone with influence and common sense speaks up.
Mel Gibson conducted a rare, spontaneous interview with a TMZ journalist at the LAX airport. The reporter asked Mel Gibson about the elections, and the results were entertaining.

The conversation that followed was:
“Wow, that is a huge question. It won’t surprise anyone who I choose to vote for.”
“I’m gonna guess… Trump? Is that a good guess?”
“I’m pretty sure it’s an accurate guess.”
What do you imagine the world to be like after a second Trump term?
“I can imagine what will happen if she gets in.” That’s not good. Appalling track records, a miserable track record. No policies. She’s got an IQ like a fencepost.”
It’s one of those situations when you know that you shouldn’t be laughing, but you can’t help yourself. In a few weeks, we should be able to stop this torture of incoherent interviewing, but right now, it’s hard to believe that this woman can’t answer even one question.
“Nonsensical”. Use it in a sentence… https://t.co/ogAIzcO740

Trump and Gibson are involved in a little story this year. In January, Trump responded on truth social to a meme showing a clean-shaven Mel Gibson captioned with “Me Voting for Trump in 2016.” Another picture of Mel Gibson in the movie Braveheart was captioned with “Me Voting for Trump 2024”. Trump replied, “Mel Gibson is great either way!”
In July, Trump was spotted chatting with Mark Wahlberg, Guy Fieri, and Gibson at a UFC event. Joe Rogan is also said to have engaged the President during the event but is not shown in the photo.

Gibson isn’t alone in recent times when it comes to celebrities who have spoken out for the former president. Dennis Quaid delivered a memorable speech during a rally in support of Trump at Coachella earlier this month. He urged Americans to take a proactive approach in deciding the future of their nation.
It is not appropriate to look to artists to guide us in areas that they are not experts on, but it is still encouraging to hear similar beliefs from some of the greatest minds of our day.
