By Judy Kurtz - 09/16/16 09:55 AM EDT
Jon Voight says hes supporting Donald Trump because the GOP presidential nominee can make the impossible happen.
I like him for a whole lot of reasons, the Oscar-winning actor said in a Friday Fox & Friends appearance, but the main reason is weve got a lot to fix, a lot to do. And [Trumps] used to handling even impossible tasks.
He enjoys rolling up his sleeves and getting it done. He knows how to put people to work. He chooses the right people to listen to. Hes been very successful because of that, and hes doing the same thing now, Voight added.
While a long list of celebrities including Hollywood heavyweights Robert de Niro, George Clooney, Kerry Washington and Jennifer Lawrence have spoken out against the White House hopeful, the Ray Donovan and "Bratz" star is hopping aboard a bus tour hosted by the Great America PAC to campaign for Trump.
Theres a lot of people in Hollywood who are on the conservative side, Voight told Fox News, theyre not outspoken.
Voight, 77, praised Trump, saying, I dont remember a campaign that a fellow has designated said, Heres the problem, heres the problem, and, Heres what Im going to do to solve that problem. [Hes] laid it out for the American people to see it.

(26,250 posts)3. I strongly suspect that Trump has never rolled up his sleeves, for any task
One really must have stepped through the looking glass to truly believe he has.

(5,648 posts)4. he is right. there are a lot of RW idiots in Hollywood.
hate to say it, but most of them are crew (grips, camera, etc....), writers, and executives, not so much the talent. yes, this is a sweeping generalization, but it has, indeed, been my experience.
OH, AND THE CREW MEMBERS AND WRITERS ARE ALMOST ALL PRO UNION.
