‘Lying dog': Jon Voight unleashes on Gavin Newsom for blaming LA riots on Trump
Hollywood star Jon Voight has slammed California Governor Gavin Newsom for blaming President Trump over the LA riots, calling him a "fool" and a "lying dog" desperate for the presidency.
In a nearly two-minute video posted to X on Tuesday, the 86-year-old called Newsom a 'disgrace,' slamming his leftist policies as a failure for California.
'This is not about Trump; this is about protecting the people from these animals and criminals," he said.
'All you do is cause chaos for the people. You're a disgrace.'
He went on to frame the unrest as a battle of 'good vs evil,' praising Trump as the 'greatest president since Lincoln".
'God is my witness, truth will prevail because of your faults and incompetence for California's failures," he said.
'We the People stand with Donald Trump to save America.'
