He continued, “These three very talented people will be my eyes and ears, and I will implement what they suggest.”
He called Hollywood, California, “a great, but very troubled area.” It appears to simultaneously express the difficulties of the Hollywood film industry and the forest fires that occurred in Los Angeles (LA). President-elect Trump emphasized, “Like America, Hollywood will once again enter a golden age.” AP pointed out, “In recent years, American film and TV production has suffered difficulties due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Writers and Actors Union strike in 2023, and recent wildfires.”
It is unclear what these three will do in the future. The AP reported that ‘special envoys’ are usually dispatched to regions such as the Middle East.
These three people are all known to be supporters of President-elect Trump. Voight, who is also the father of actress Angelina Jolie, has praised President-elect Trump as the best president since Abraham Lincoln, the AP reported. Stallone is a regular guest at President-elect Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home, and said shortly after last year’s election, “We got a second George Washington (the first president of the United States).”
Gibson announced his support for Trump last year and also criticized Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris for having “the intelligence of a fence post.”
