AceShowbiz - Jon Voight, the 85-year-old Oscar-winning actor and outspoken supporter of former President Donald Trump, celebrated Trump's victory at a party held at Trump's private club, Mar-a-Lago, following the Republican's historic win over Kamala Harris.
Sarah Huckabee Sanders shared an Instagram slideshow of the festivities, featuring Voight alongside herself, Elon Musk, Caitlyn Jenner, Tiffany Trump, Barron Trump, Eric Trump, and Donald Trump Jr.. Voight has repeatedly praised Trump and criticized the Biden administration.
During Trump's presidency, Voight was awarded the National Medal of Arts and National Humanities Medal. After Trump's presidency ended, Voight released a video condemning the Capitol riots but also praising Trump for his "hard work and love for America."
He has since criticized his daughter Angelina Jolie for her support of Palestinians, accusing her of being influenced by "anti-Semitic people."
Voight and Jolie have had a tumultuous relationship over the years, but they reconciled in the 2010s. Voight expressed his appreciation for spending time with Jolie despite their political differences.
Voight's attendance at the Mar-a-Lago party highlights the ongoing support for Trump among some high-profile figures. The celebration serves as a reminder of the actor's long-standing endorsement of the former president and the political divide that continues to exist in Hollywood and beyond.
