America is getting closer and closer to the 60th presidential election, which could truly be a watershed moment in American politics. While many believe that Democratic nominee Kamala Harris, who previously served as vice president for the time being, has victory over POTUS’s Joe Biden in her bag, the winds are equally overwhelming for Republicans. The candidate is in favor of Donald Trump, the 45th president of the United States, for whom this marks his fourth presidential campaign.
While the two are constantly making headlines as they approach the Nov. 5 date, for the minute, Taylor Swift has officially endorsed Kamala after the presidential debate, possibly giving her the edge. But Trump isn’t far behind when it comes to famous public figures who have his back. Let’s take a look at some of the most notable names in this category.
Elon Musk
As news breaks about any public figure even making anti-Trump statements, you can count on the fact that Elon Musk has already opened up his phone to X, sparking a reaction that’s sure to Turns its head, often for the wrong reasons. While Elon’s unwavering endorsement of Trump has stood the test of time, the final connection in this regard was his reaction to Taylor’s endorsement of Kamala. Elon was quick to reach out to her ex, jokingly promising to ‘babysit Taylor’ and take care of her cats. The general consensus on this image was that it was very crude and unintended, but good.
Brittany Mahomes
Is Brittany Mahomes a close Trump supporter? While the American football player has yet to publicly come out with any such statement, the internet already seems to have given his decision wisely. The reason? It was recently reported that Britney had liked an Instagram post from Trump in August outlining the Republican Party’s platform for the 2024 election. While she didn’t like it after the fiasco was revealed, TMZ also reported that she liked a comment on her own Instagram posts that read “TRUMP-VANCE 2024.”
Without revealing who she would vote for this year, she made a statement about the backlash, saying all the hate was a result of “deep-rooted issues.” However, things went downhill for her when Trump himself yelled at her not once but twice. The first time his parallel X handle was in a post on Real Social. The second came as part of his reaction to Taylor’s endorsement of Kamala. “Well, I really like Mrs. Mahomes a lot, if you want to know the truth,” he said.
Azalea Banks
Rapper and singer Azalea Banks was caught in the cold after declaring her allegiance to Donald Trump in the early winter of 2023, but it wasn’t the first time. Azalea also supported Trump in 2016, with some of her comments about women being released shortly before the voting season. However, when he won, she made a Facebook post about how “delighted” she was.
Going back to this year’s election, Azalea’s endorsement likely comes with her stance on gun laws. Earlier this year in July, she also marked her presence at a Trump rally in Florida, the footage of which led to an internet-destined leap.
Lil Wayne
In December 2019, rapper Lil Wayne pleaded guilty to drug-related arson, which carries a sentence of up to 10 years in prison. In January 2021, on his last night as the 45th president of the United States, Trump granted the rapper a pardon, one of 143. For Lil Wayne, the reason was that he was “trustworthy, kind and generous”. Charity work with hospitals and food banks. The rapper’s thanks came in the form of an X-Post, which read in part, “I want to thank President Trump for recognizing that I have so much to give to my family, my art and my community”. The two have since held several talks on criminal justice reform.
Jon Voight
Oscar-winning actor (and Angelina Jolie’s father too), Jon Voight, is almost the poster boy for Trump’s A-Lister supporters, and it’s not a recent development. As a matter of fact, the actor has moved on from the “hysteria during the Vietnam era” (his words, not ours), and has been very vocal in his support of a number of Republican politicians, Trump being the biggest. is the name Reverend John at MAGA (Make America Great Again) buys the argument 100 percent and fully believes that Trump is the most qualified to execute it. He even called Trump “the greatest president since Abraham Lincoln” in 2019. If you’re wondering how far this political partnership goes, in 2017 he said, “If only God could take back all the negative lies against Mr. Trump whose only hope was to make America great again.” There’s no point in guessing who he’ll vote for come winter.
Who do you think will be leading in this US presidential election?
