I don’t know what universe he’s in. Maybe the fox bubble. Is racism greatness? Is ignorance greatness?

1. I agree.

He is living in some kind of hermetically sealed bubble there.

When you start a talk by declaring war on your fellow Americans, just how much credence would you expect your message to have in the first place? Just how patriotic is that?

He drank the Kool-Aid. Sad! He wasn't a bad actor, really. Maybe he thinks he is playing one of his roles now?

2. Hey, all I want

is for Mexico to pay for the wall.

[The Wizard]

3. double talk

from a very unusual weirdo.

[riversedge]

4. Soulless also.

[Gidney N Cloyd]

5. He's been messed up since they held "Jon Voight Day" at Yankee Stadium and he was...

...hit in the head with a snow tire.

[SergeStorms]

28. Sneaky.

A George Costanza brainstorm.

6. No matter how one feels about Angelina, how the hell does she let her kids be around THAT?

She at least appears to give a damn about people, the world, the future.

[Laffy Kat]

22. She doesn't!!

She long ago disowned him.

[The Wizard]

7. This is from

Tucker Carlson's YouTube page. Good god the stupid has no bounds.

[CurtEastPoint]

10. I went to the Youtube site and it's from THe Daily Caller and the comments OMFG they are

just mentally deficient.

[The Wizard]

36. One of them opined

that Trump had 70% of the people behind him. Math is science, and they don't do science.

[alittlelark]

8. I could only get partway through it....

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

33. I lasted 15 seconds before I closed the tab.

I'm already sick with a bad cold, so that just gave me another reason to worship the porcelain god.

[elias7]

38. 27 seconds...

[Cartoonist]

9. 30% of America agrees

I read some responses and was equally disgusted. They were all "Thank you for your wisdom"

[Roy Rolling]

20. Makes me wonder...

How many of those people watched the whole video? I couldn’t finish it, it simply wasn’t interesting or entertaining.

These people want to be babysat first, educated second. I now believe they just go from headline-to-headline, never any deeper.

Thanks for the insight!

[FM123]

11. What do you even say to madness like that....

[spike jones]

34. I say this

[FM123]

44. Effin perfect!

[magicarpet]

12. Brainwashed zombie.... Fascist pig.

[bronxiteforever]

13. I will never click on anything from the Daily Caller

[lunasun]

14. He has been like that for years stop giving excuses He won a golden globe in 2013 for best

supporting actor and that was many years after he first started trashing Obama 100 different ways

Now tell me about how trump only made calls to the Ukraine because he is confused and suffering from dementia
and it is sad he is so ill

[Duppers]

24. Zactly. JV has been a crazy winger most of his life.

That's one reason his daughter, Angelina Jolie, hated him.

[Botany]

15. This is what happens when you watch Fox, Newsmax, listen to hate talk radio, and read Brietbart

Trump will go down as the biggest traitor in America's history and yet Mr. Voight blathers on and on
about "stuff" that just isn't real.

BTW I didn't make it halfway through the video.

[KPN]

29. Its also what happens when you're racist, bigoted, and a pig.

I didn't make it halfway through halfway!

[marble falls]

16. If its dementia, it started about thirty years ago. He's just a nasty mean RWer.

[usaf-vet]

17. Never liked him as an actor. Sure don't respect him now. The term deluded seems to fit.

[Duppers]

27. Sadly, I thought much of his acting was quite good.

Always dislike him as a person.

[KPN]

30. Ditto. No question he was a good actor, unlike Ronnie.

[marble falls]

41. Not after Midnite Cowboy and Catch-22.

[KPN]

43. Runaway Train was pretty good.

[marble falls]

45. Not enought plot.

[B Stieg]

18. Got into a staring contest with this guy...

about ten years ago at the BreadBar in Century City. I had very long hair back then, which Wingnut Voight clearly disapproved of.

[KPN]

32. Interesting story. I can see that.

[B Stieg]

35. I think I had just read about "The Friends of Abe"

a club for Hollywood Conservatives which Voight helped found.

[NurseJackie]

19. Twelve seconds... that's all I could take.

[nuxvomica]

21. He needs a new category on his IMDB credits page: projectionist

When he was saying something like "Their anger has been building for a long time" it reminded me of arguments I've had with RWers, where they project so much hatred and corruption on the left and it's really some sort of weird reverse confession.

[Quixote1818]

23. LOL!

Holy shit! Trump a noble man????? That is the funniest shit ever!

[packman]

25. Not dementia so much as delusional

Guy has no sense or grasp on what is happening in the world and is living in his fantasy world he's created. The man is basically insecure and needs an authoritarian figure in his sad, sad life.

[turbinetree]

26. Without clicking on the video, he thinks its just fine and dandy to commit Treason

and let a foreign power just fuck over voters in this country.............

[Kablooie]

31. He's still acting on showtime's Ray Donovan

Filming the 7th season right now.

His politics have always been like this. That’s why his daughter, Angelina Jolie, is estranged from him.

[japple]

37. It is really sad to see. I think he is/was excellent in several movies: Midnight Cowboy,

Coming Home and Holes. Now, it has become almost verboten to watch anything else he ever does again.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

39. I don't know exactly what made him think that way, but...

... I feel confident that it boils down to some desire by him to believe what he WANTS to believe, regardless of evidence to the contrary.

That's my generalization of right-wingers that seems to be the most consistent -- whether it's based on religion, blindly supporting "the greatest country on Earth" regardless of what it does, belief that a particular skin color is superior to others, etc.

Those kinds of people often don't care about facts unless they support their desired beliefs, and they'll accept lies about as easily for the same reason.

[rpannier]

40. Jon Voight, James Woods, Kelsey Grammer

So much talent
So little humanity

[smirkymonkey]

42. The talent is questionable.

They have extreme personalities, but I am not so sure I consider that talent.
