After Hollywood Star Slammed for Voting Trump – He Sends Out the Best Smackdown Ever
After Hollywood Star Slammed for Voting Trump – He Sends Out the Best Smackdown Ever

This election season saw an unexpected shake-up in Hollywood. Against all odds, several prominent actors, musicians, and comedians broke away from the liberal establishment to publicly endorse Donald Trump.

It was a gutsy move. Just a few years ago, such a decision would have meant instant “cancellation” and career suicide. But times have changed, and Americans have noticed. Instead of bowing to the outrage mob, these stars held their ground, with some even calling out Hollywood’s hypocrisy.

Take popular actor Zachary Levi, star of “Shazam!” Levi’s Trump endorsement just weeks before the election sent shockwaves through the industry. And, true to form, the Hollywood press came after him fast. But Levi didn’t back down. A reporter from the entertainment outlet Showbiz 411 mocked him, suggesting his support for Trump would keep him out of “mainstream Hollywood.”

This is what he said in response.

From Daily Wire:
“Shazam!” star Zachary Levi torched an entertainment outlet that attacked him for his support of President-elect Donald Trump following Vice President Kamala Harris’ defeat in the election…

Levi “will never be part of mainstream Hollywood after this. You can make movies with Mel Gibson and Dennis Quaid.”

“Oh, it’s all gravy, Roger!” the actor replied. “My goal has always been to leave it at some point anyway, and build a better system…”

Zachary Levi Fires Back at Hollywood

In a fiery post on X (formerly Twitter), Levi took aim at Showbiz 411 and its editor, Roger Friedman. The outlet had tried to insult him, writing that the “only consolation” in Trump’s win was that Levi would “never be part of mainstream Hollywood after this.”

Levi’s response? He couldn’t care less. “Oh, it’s all gravy, Roger!” Levi shot back, adding that he’d always planned to leave Hollywood’s broken system behind. “My goal has always been to build a better system that actually values and compensates the artists… rather than enriching executives who compromise the art.”

Levi’s vision didn’t end there. He explained his commitment to creating a new kind of studio—one focused on “certified organic, human-made content.” Levi is no fan of Hollywood’s turn to artificial intelligence to maximize profits at the expense of real talent.

“Mainstream Hollywood continues to replace all of its workforce with AI… Enjoy reporting on the sidelines of the Hollywood apocalypse!” he wrote.

It’s rare to see a celebrity stand up to Hollywood like this, but Levi made it clear he’s ready to lead the charge. He’s not interested in Hollywood’s approval, and his endorsement of Trump is only the beginning.

In his appearance on The Megyn Kelly Show, Levi gave his reasons for voting Trump this year, despite having not supported him in the past.

Why Levi Endorsed Trump

Levi didn’t vote for Trump in the last two elections, but he’s changed his mind. He explained why, saying Trump had done a “good job” despite the constant media criticism.

“For four years, the world didn’t blow up,” Levi pointed out. “He didn’t turn into the Nazi fascist that everybody said he was going to be… We entered no more wars. Our economy was better. Our border was better.”

Levi’s reasons for supporting Trump aren’t just about Trump himself. It’s also about his opposition. Levi minced no words when he said that Kamala Harris, the defeated vice president, was “not qualified in any way, shape, or form to be the Commander in Chief, the leader of the free world.”

He sees Trump’s re-election as a chance for a fresh start—a team that could get America back on track. But for Levi, supporting Trump is about more than just one man. It’s about a team of fighters who he believes can genuinely “drain the swamp” this time around.

Levi’s Vision for the Future

Levi called his support of Trump a vote for “Donald Trump, Bobby Kennedy, Tulsi Gabbard, Vivek Ramaswamy, Elon Musk, JD Vance, and everyone else” who will join the administration to make real change.

“They’re going to get in there and actually do what Donald Trump said he was going to do the first time, which was drain the swamp,” Levi said. He described this coalition as an “Avengers” team ready to fight for America.

Levi’s endorsement in September had already turned heads, but his recent remarks made his stance even clearer. He believes Trump has what it takes to “take back this country” and “make it great again.”

Levi’s outspoken support has encouraged other celebrities to come forward, creating a wave of endorsements that defy Hollywood’s liberal stronghold.

More Celebrities Join Trump’s Side

Zachary Levi isn’t the only one. His courage to speak out has inspired others in the industry, from musicians to comedians, to break free from the Hollywood groupthink.

Some stars are tired of the elitist echo chamber and believe it’s time to prioritize American interests over political correctness. It’s a movement that’s giving a voice to those in Hollywood who feel silenced by an industry that only tolerates one point of view.

This shift signals a new era for American entertainment. The culture war in Hollywood is heating up, and celebrities like Levi are leading the charge to bring a fresh perspective.

Hollywood may try to cancel them, but these stars are finding their own way, creating their own platforms, and reaching audiences directly.
