All Of The Celebrities Who Are Publicly Supporting Donald Trump In The 2024 Presidential Election
By Sophia Maddox | January 25, 2024
Matt Gaetz
Donald Trump's presidency was polarizing to say the least, and while many of his celebrity supporters jumped ship following the results of the 2020 presidential election he's still backed by plenty of famous faces.
Celebrities like musician and conservative activist Ted Nugent, whose passionate rhetoric has struck a chord with many Trump supporters has stuck by 45's side, just like Kid Rock, whose unapologetic endorsement of Trump has garnered significant attention in the media. But it's not just rockstars backing the former president. He has Super Bowl winners, award winning rappers, comedians, and reality TV stars by his side.
Join us as we explore the intriguing realm of celebrity endorsements and their role in shaping the political landscape. As the 2024 presidential election draws closer we'll continue to update these influential personalities and their alignment with Trump's campaign.
Even before officially announcing in November 2022, Florida lawmaker Matt Gaetz has consistently shown support for Trump's potential return to politics. In an op-ed for the Daily Caller in November Gaetz wrote:
There's so many more accomplishments left for us to achieve if we elect Donald Trump back to the White House.
That's a clear signal as to where his vote lies.
Ye
This is a bit of an odd one but it still sort of counts as a celebrity endorsing the former president. In 2022, Ye (formerly Kanye West) announced that he's once again throwing his hat into the presidential election ring in 2024, tweeting that he'd like Trump to be his VP after visiting him at Mar-a-Lago. He wrote:
First time at Mar-a-Lago. Rain and traffic. Can’t believe I kept President Trump waiting. And I had on jeans. What you guys think [Trump’s] response was when I asked him to be my running mate in 2024?
It's a kind of support, don't you think?
Kid Rock
As an avid golfer and lover of all things on the right side of politics, the "Bawitdaba" singer has long been a close pal of Donal Trump. He's continued to lend his support to the former president on social media, especially when promoting his new music. On January 6, 2022, Mr. Rock posted this message on Instagram:
I just got off the phone with our 45th President (hopefully 47th) and he expressed how proud of me he was over “We The People” being the #1 song on Itunes! Suck on that you trolls, critics and haters! Thank you to all the fans, I can’t wait to see you on tour!
Jason Aldean
In July 2023, former President Trump backed country music star Jason Aldean following the the controversy surrounding the music video for his song "Try That In A Small Town." Aldean has been a long time Trump supporter who's even visited 45's Mar-A-Lago resort with his wife. While Aldean hasn't explicitly stated his 2024 ballot box decision, it's safe to say that he won't be voting a straight Democratic ticket.
Brett Favre
In a conversation with podcaster Jason Whitlock, former Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Favre threw his full support behind the former president, stating:
I think our country was in better shape with [Trump]. I think Donald was a non-political president, and I liked that about him. Was he perfect? Absolutely not. Am I perfect? Absolutely not. I’m flawed just like the rest of them. We’re all flawed. But, I really felt like he had our country in a better place and really cared about our people in our country. Black, white, Hispanic, Asian, you name it. I think if you were an American citizen, he cared about you, first and foremost. I don’t know if our current president has the same mentality, our regime. I’m not knocking anyone. That’s just how I felt.
Randy Quaid
Randy Quaid has been all-in on the former president since the early days of Trump's 2016 campaign, so it's no surprise that he's supporting his main man in 2024. On November 16, 2022 Quaid tweeted his support, writing, "Make America Glorious Again! Trump 2024."
Jon Voight
Midnight Cowboy and National Treasure star Jon Voight has been stumping for Donald Trump since he was the Republican nominee in 2016, telling Breitbart, "he's an answer to our problems."
In 2023, Voight spoke with cable outlet Newsmax about the former POTUS, stating:
[Trump] will build this land back to her beauty where she will stand proud and she will hold the torch up for freedom — freedom of the people, ... the American Dream.
Robert Davi
The Goonies actor threw his support behind the former president on Twitter in 2022, writing:
Listening to Donald Trump made me feel the greatest days of America could be ahead of us. Donald Trump has the balls, common sense, and know-how to lift America out of the destructive path it is currently facing. He communicates plainly to the American people with bold clarity.
Ted Nugent
Conservative rocker and "Wango Tango" scribe Ted Nugent is so in on the former president that he opened a rally for the Donald in 2023 in Waco, Texas. During his performance Nugent let it fly in support of Trump, saying:
I am a guitar player, I have a couple of demands. Secure my border. I have a couple of really good ideas: give me my tax dollars back. I didn't authorize killing babies at Planned Parenthood.... I want my money back. I didn't authorize any money to Ukraine to some homosexual weirdo.
Aaron Lewis
Aaron Lewis, the former frontman of nu-metal also-rans Staind and current singer-songwriter has long been a proponent of conservative talking points (Hunter Biden, China, Putin, etc.) so it's no surprise that he's lending his support to Trump in the run-up to the 2024 election in spite of the fact that he's "disappointed... with the bickering and the name-calling" that tends to come from the ex-president.
Dean Cain
Former Lois & Clark actor Dean Cain has supported former president Trump since he was the Republican nominee way back in the 2010s. In 2020 he tweeted:
Yes, I support most of President Trumps policies. Absolutely.
Kristy Swanson
Original Buffy the Vampire Slayer Kristy Swanson is all in on former president Trump. She's been stumping for him since the 2016 election and she's continued posting about him on her social media. Most recently, Swanson made a three part Instagram post about the former president's "hostile" interview with Bret Baier, Fox News’s chief political anchor.
Johnny Damon
Former professional MLB journeyman Johnny Damon threw down the gauntlet in 2022 when he simply posted "Trump 2024" next to an American flag emoji.
Caitlyn Jenner
Former Olympian Caitlyn Jenner has been outspoken about her conservative beliefs for years, and even though she's toyed with the idea of running for office she's been open about her support of Trump going forward into the 2024 election. While speaking with Sky News in April 2023 she stated:
I would like to see him – what we need right now in the White House is we need kind of like an alpha male that can get in there, knows what he's doing. And Donald Trump knows what he's doing – he's already been there. He knows how to fix things and has a great track record.
Terrence K. Williams
Comedian Terrence K. Williams is definitely supporting Trump in 2024. Not only did he attend the campaign launch of the former president, but he referred to it as the "greatest announcement of the year." On November 15, 2022, Williams tweeted:
He has my complete and total endorsement. He has done so much for America. He has done so much for the black community! He will always have my support. We love you Trump MAKE AMERICAN GREAT AGAIN TRUMP 2024
Kevin Sorbo
On April 5, 2023, Hercules and the Legendary Journeys actor Kevin Sorbo tweeted his simple endorsement of the former president, stating:
Trump 2024.
Sorbo remains a man of many muscles and few words.
Phil Robertson
Duck Dynasty patriarch Phil Robertson has come forward in his 2022 book, Un-Cancelled, with a somewhat supportive statement on former president Trump. He writes:
You won’t find me invading the United States Capitol when my candidate loses an election. No, my only goal is to destroy bad ideas that stand opposed to the knowledge of God with the gospel of truth. As far as [Trump's] policies goes, he’s pro-life, pro-gun, pro-God. I shared Jesus with him multiple times, and he listened.
Kodak Black
In 2022, "No Flockin'" rapper Kodak Black hopped on Instagram Live to rail against Ye for even thinking about running against Trump in the 2024 election. Black said that Ye was "bats***" crazy" for even thinking about ruining the former president's attempt to get back into the White House.
Keemstar
YouTuber Keemstar, who has more than five million subscribers on his DramaAlert channel has been a polarizing figure for more than a decade at this point, so it's no surprise that he set off his followers by simply tweeting "Trump 2024" back in 2022.
John Dolmayan
System of a Down drummer John Dolmayan has been a vocal supporter of Donald Trump for years and he's thrown his support behind the former president in spite of the fact that he's lost plenty of fans over his political stance. In 2022, he told Lara Trump on her podcast The Right View with Lara Trump:
I took a lot of flak, I lost a lot of followers, I lost financial opportunities, and primarily because I supported Donald Trump as president. ‘Cause he was my president — I voted for him twice, and I’m not ashamed to say it. I’d vote for him again. I will vote for him again if he runs. I hope he does. I hope he does; you have my support. And the reason why is because I think he’s doing things for the right reasons.
Ace Frehley
What is it with guitarists and Trump? In an interview with the Cassius Morris Show former Kiss guitarist Ace Frehley laid out his support for the former president, saying:
I don’t think politics and rock & roll mix — in my opinion. And I try to stay away from that as much as I can. I mean, once in a while, I’ll make a crack. I will say I’m a Trump supporter. All the politicians have had skeletons in the closet. But I think Trump is the strongest leader that we’ve got on the table.
Scott Adams
Dilbert creator Scott Adams is a polarizing figure to say the least. He's a vocal supporter of many conservative issues, and in 2023 he tweeted his support of former president Trump, saying:
I endorse President Trump for 2024 based solely on his promise to treat the cartels like ISIS. I’m a one-issue voter.
Mike Lindell, CEO of My Pillow
Regardless of where you sit on the political spectrum you've got to admit that Mike Lindell, the CEO of My Pillow, is kind of wild. He's backed former president Trump every step of the way following his loss to Joe Biden in the 2020 election, and he's still all in on his man. When Trump made the official announcement that he was back in the race in Palm Beach, Florida, Lindell was right there with him.
Roger Stone
Roger Stone is one of the most well known political strategists and lobbyists of the modern era. He worked for the campaigns of Republican politicians including Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan, Jack Kemp, Bob Dole, George W. Bush, and Donald Trump, so it makes sense that he continues to support the former president's intention to be in the White House again. Stone was on hand with a number of conservative luminaries when Trump announced his intention to run for a second term.
Lindsey Graham
Over the years, the South Carolina senator, who has served for a considerable time, forged a strong bond with Trump, emerging as one of his foremost allies within Congress. While speaking to Fox News in January 2023, Graham noted:
I know the downside of Trump, but let me tell you about the upside of Trump: there are no Trump policies without Trump.
JD Vance
In an op-ed published on January 31, 2023, in the Wall Street Journal, the freshman senator and acclaimed author of the bestselling book Hillbilly Elegy, who gained Trump's endorsement in the Ohio GOP primary in 2022, openly expressed his backing for the former president, commending his accomplishments in foreign policy. Vance wrote:
He has my support in 2024 because I know he won’t recklessly send Americans to fight overseas.
Marjorie Taylor Greene
The outspoken conservative representative from Georgia has been one of the most unwavering supporters of Trump in Congress. She publicly endorsed the former president on the same day he declared his candidacy. Conservative firebrand Steve Bannon has noted that Greene is likely in the running to be Trump's VP if he nabs the Republican nomination.
George Santos
George Santos has a lot on his plate at the moment, but in May 2023 he was interviewed on The Point with Marcia Kramer and broke down his support for Trump:
We all know who's gonna win the primary. It's a waste of time and money. Republicans should just stop this.
Melania Trump
Melania Trump has been open in her support for her husband, former President Donald Trump, in his bid for presidential reelection. Despite her infrequent presence at his campaign events, she affirms her backing for his campaign. She stated:
He has my support, and we look forward to restoring hope for the future and leading America with love and strength.
Scott Baio
The Happy Days and Joanie Loves Chachi star has been a longtime Trump supporter, even going so far as to give a speech in favor of the former president at the RNC in July 2016, stating:
We need Donald Trump to fix this. Is Donald Trump a messiah? No, he’s just a man, a man who wants to give back to his country, America, the country that has given him everything. Hillary Clinton wants to be president for Hillary Clinton. Donald Trump wants to be president for all of us... So, of course, let’s make America great again, but let’s make America, America again.
