Jon Voight Appears Game To Be Trump's Chief Of Staff

s President Donald Trump searches for a new chief of staff to replace John Kelly, there is one well-known but unorthodox candidate who may be willing to consider the job: actor Jon Voight.

On Monday, CNN White House reporter Kaitlan Collins saw the Oscar-winning actor visit the White House and even go to the briefing room.
Naturally, she asked if he was going take the chief of staff position, and Voight didn’t deny it.

According to Collins, he simply said his credentials are ready.

This song haunted me when I was a kid. It's beautiful, but it just keeps going "downwards", not like any other movie theme. It wasn't until I got older and actually saw the movie that I realized why.

John Barry was a genius. This would be a perfect theme for a Jon Voight stint as Donald Trump's chief of staff.

He could take care of Individual 1 in the same way that Joe Buck took care of Ratso Rizzo:

Ratso Rizzo: Here I am, goin' to Florida, my leg hurts, my butt hurts, my chest hurts, my face hurts, and like that ain't enough, I gotta pee all over myself.

[Joe Buck laughs]

Ratso Rizzo: That's funny? I'm fallin' apart here!

Joe Buck: It's just - Know what happened? You just took a little rest stop that wasn't on the schedule!
