The Twitter account "The Nest" retweets MeidasTouch a lot, and has pinned a "Are You in a Cult?" quiz - if you answer "yes" to "President Trump care about me" etc., then "YES!!!".

Not like they will mobilize any new voters.

I hate to admit it but I saw him in concert in the 70s. Didn’t realize what a putz he was.

can't wait to see all those right leaning independents rolling in an emotional abusive father (voight) and a co star who like to date his underage coworkers...love those guys, real winners and great humans to boot.


Taylor swift is a national hero and every voter she recruits, have a change to at least think for themselves and has a good chance to vote for a D

Fans of "Happy Days" are rapidly dying off.... and I am only slightly familiar with Jon Voight's name---
I remember his name, but I can hardly recall any movie that he starred in---

(maybe there was one with Jane Fonda in the 1970s, but she had top billing)....


This is like the fleas waving their arms against the brontosaurus.... good luck with that!

The movie you're thinking of is Coming Home.

He was also in Midnight Cowboy with Dustin Hoffman.

I seem to recall him in Rosewood in the early 90s, and he did a decent job with that one.

Somehow, it's appropriate that he was in one of the most hated roles of all time, the evil Jim Phelps in the first Tom Cruise Mission Impossible movie. Just about every cast member from the original series expressed their extreme displeasure with destroying the character that way.

Give me a damn break, blaming a pop star because you lost elections, even though your ideas are 18th Century Dark Age fodder? Maybe you lost because…your ideas are 18th century fodder.

Hey but chin up, subversion of the will of the people is still in play, so there is hope for your theocratic madness.

But can it be possible that John Voight doesn’t understand that fans of his acting (and I’m one of them) already know that he’s an absolute fucking loon in real life? He actually makes Trump look like a stable genius!
