1. Jon Voigt

is a fat delusional old man. No wonder his daughter is crazy.

[Lucinda]

30. His daughter isnt crazy. n/t

[Jilly_in_VA]

31. Respectfully disagree

IMNSHO, she's not quite right. Opinions differ.

3. He's a banana rama

[blm]

4. Two words for ya, Voight: Prove it.

[BeckyDem]

5. Can you imagine having this dope for a father?

ugh

[liberalhistorian]

36. I've never liked Angelina Jolie for a variety of reasons,

but I'll give her credit where it's due. She's had a strained relationship with him for many years and it got even more strained when he went off the Trump Train deep end years ago; she doesn't want him around her kids and for good reason. At least she has SOME sense!

[BeckyDem]

37. I understand what you mean.

I'm not a big fan of celebrities, especially after the revelations around Harvey Weinstein, those who claimed to know nothing were no longer credible.

Jolie has my sympathy for having this wacko for a Dad.

6. Lincoln is turning in his grave with disgust . ...

These people are absolutely craz craz. Are they still waiting on JFK?

[Caliman73]

7. This is what happens when celebrities get to speak in ignorance.

He was a decent actor at some point. Good for him. He made money. Why should we listen to him at all? He is obviously ignorant of anything having to do with Lincoln's character and policies.

Lincoln's actions go against EVERYTHING that the Republican party stands for today. He was for the expansion of the Federal Government to improve people's lives. He eventually came to accept and fight for equality for Black people, even if his earlier work was mainly for the preservation of the Union.

If there were even such a thing as "spirits", Abraham Lincoln's spirit would stay WAY THE FUCK AWAY from someone like Trump. Maybe Richard Nixon's spirit or Andrew Jackson's, hell, I'd throw in James Buchanan and Andrew Johnson's to boot.

8. Meanwhile, that loud whirring sound is ol' Honest Abe spinning in his grave.

TFG is possessed, all right, but not by the spirit of Lincoln.

9. John wants Trump to whip the South again for Abe?

John wants Trump to whip the South again for Abe?

Trump, a NY Yankee, calls Sessions a 'dumb southerner' and they love him down there.

After all, Trump 'tells it like it is'.

[grumpyduck]

10. Yeah, Lincoln's spirit should

come back and haunt that SOB.

And all the other repuq assholes. I'm thinking of that scene in Ghost where they came for Sam's killer.

[Moebym]

11. About the only thing to come from Jon Voight that could be considered good

Is Angelina Jolie.

[BootinUp]

12. Normally I'd say have that guy committed, but

I’m starting to wonder if Voight is just doing this shit for some kind of monetary gain.

[alphafemale]

13. That rattle head took the express train to Crazy Town

a couple decades ago.

[lpbk2713]

14. Trump and Lincoln have nothing in common.

Trump and Voigt do however.

They are both as dumb as a sack of chicken manure.

[Submariner]

15. On Showtime, Voight ruined "Ray Donovan" for me

Instead of seeing his Whitey Burger type character on the screen, I saw him as a trump butt kisser MAGAts-idiot. Sad.

[Green Line]

19. Agree

It's a shame, I loved Ray Donovan, but knowing who he is made it hard to watch sometimes.

[mwooldri]

16. Voigt is wrong.

More like the spirit of a Lincoln automobile... Trump just wants to drive over everything.

[lame54]

17. Send Trump tickets to a play

[Generic Brad]

18. When exactly did Jon Voight experience a head injury

Because the only way a person could reason like him is if they were dropped on their head from a great distance.

[Efilroft Sul]

32. Probably when he filmed "The Champ."

[Cha]

20. That's Sickening to

Smear Pres Lincoln's name with the fucking Anti-Christ.

Get a GD grip Voight.. your brain is null and void from all the brainwashing. Stupid Fuck.

[duhneece]

22. Funny our responses to things

I read your comment and just seriously felt, “I love you, Cha”.

Such love was unexpected! Lol

[Cha]

23. Aww I'm honored!

And, I love you, Duhneece 💙

[roamer65]

21. Voight is a fucking irrelevant loon.

[crud]

24. As soon as I clicked on the video my mouse battery ran out!

Had to listen to this at least 15 times before I could find and replace the batteries. I think I've been brain washed. I'm going out to buy a Lincoln cause they have good speed.

[jcgoldie]

25. Pretty sure hes confused about history

The guys carrying the confederate flags werent on Lincoln’s side…

[JohnSJ]

26. More like Lincoln Rockwell

[bahboo]

27. dude's got brain damage from something...

[rsdsharp]

28. How the fuck do you go from campaigning for McGovern

to whatever THIS is?

[JHB]

34. Makes me suspect he was always pretty shallow and mostly believed whatever...

...he absorbed from others around him. All it takes is a change in who he hangs out with to get him to believe something completely different.

He's talked about 9/11 being the "reason" for his shift, but that strike me as "a conservative is a liberal who got mugged"-type nonsense. Deeply-rooted personal morality and philosophy don't fall over from one traumatic blow. But if the roots aren't deep, if they're shallow, then yes it can.

And they'll latch firmly onto a new viewpoint pretty quick, especially if they get a new crow that has a bunch of easy answers.

[Wounded Bear]

29. He needs to crawl back into the snake...

[liberal_mama]

33. How sad. I've always enjoyed his acting. I must have watched Midnight Cowboy like 20x. I met him in

person once (years ago) and he was very nice. But he is so politically extreme now that I'm totally disgusted.

[madinmaryland]

35. Hmmm. Does this mean Lincoln's spirit is leading trump to Ford's Theatre?

Just asking for a friend.

[Samrob]

38. "Possessed" being the operative word.

[Kid Berwyn]

39. Not enough drugs in the world to make me believe that.
