Breitbart: President Donald Trump will award the Oscar-winning actor Jon Voight with the National Medal of Arts, the White House announced on Sunday.
In a statement, the White House confirmed that Jon Voight, who is one of Trump’s few prominent Hollywood supporters, will be honored at a ceremony later this week for his “exceptional capacity as an actor to portray deeply complex characters.”
“Captivating audiences, he has given us insights into the richness of the human mind and heart,” the statement read. more
WELL, THAT’LL SEAL JON’S HOWOOD FATE!!
Much much better American than Obama ever was…
Excellent. Voight is a true actor. He becomes his character and makes me believe that the character exists. The actor is forgotten.
That’ll give the Academy a wart.
🙂
Not only a great actor, but more importantly a great AMERICAN! Well done Mr. President!
Jon Voight is a good guy and all, but I have a hard time with Presidential awards for actors simply because they are good at pretending to be someone they are not. Now if he was to risk his life to save a trainload of children I can see a civilian award for bravery, …..but for actors being good pretenders, I don’t think so.
joe, Better to give Voight the ARTS award than to some fat lesbian that paints with her menstrual blood.
@joe6pak: I totally agree with you, but right now I’ll go along with anything that pokes a sharp stick in the eye of the Left and their Hollywood lap dogs. Sometimes you gotta take the small victories when they come, even when they do emit the faint aroma of three-day old fish.
old_oaks, you’re right, if you had to give one of two people an award, Jon Voight would be the better choice.
J.V. didn’t have to buy it. #spielberg
Aaaand let the Twitter rage begin.
Truly Good!
Hard to remember at times that Hollywood isn’t completely dominated by a##holes. Voight’s one of not to many. Good choice! A solid actor.
