Donald Trump says people will have to refer to Sylvester Stallone, Jon Voight, and Mel Gibson as 'Mr. Ambassador'

Donald Trump says people now have to refer to Mel Gibson, Sylvester Stallone, and Jon Voight as "Mr. Ambassador."

The incoming president announced the honorific designation on stage at the "Make America Great Again Victory Rally" in Washington, D.C., on Sunday, one day before Trump is inaugurated as the 47th President of the United States.

"Also with us tonight is a great actor, tremendously talented guy, Jon Voight, who's great, and a friend mine," he said toward the end of his hour-long address. "And Sylvester Stallone is here — great guy. And you know I got Mel Gibson, Sylvester Stallone, and Jon Voight to become ambassadors to Hollywood, Calif., to put it back on track. So they're all ambassadors. You have to refer to them as ambassadors, 'Mr. Ambassador.'"

In the hours before Trump's address, Voight made an appearance on the rally stage, vowing that Trump "will make America great again, safe again. We the people will honor our flag again." and praised Trump's victory as the "greatest win of all time — the victory we were all fighting for to save our country, our democracy. I'm so grateful to say that Donald J. Trump is the 47th president of the United States."
