Robert Davi denounces the “huge disconnect” between Hollywood, for Harris, and the rank and file of the truckers union, for Trump


It's a tale of two candidates.

While Vice President Kamala Harris continues to garner massive support from stars like Billie Eilish, Chris Rock, Meryl Streep, Oprah and Taylor Swift, former President Trump appears to have a majority of support from members of the Teamsters union, a historically blue voting bloc.

“They're not your average, everyday person,” actor Robert Davi, who has appeared in films including “The Goonies,” “Die Hard” and “License to Kill,” told Fox News' Brian Kilmeade on Saturday.

“It's not the Teamsters that actually make the teams work. That 60% of the Teamsters are for Donald Trump. So there's a huge disconnect in terms of money and understanding what the problems of our nation are.”

Davi has broken the ranks of the Hollywood crowd with his own support for the former president, keeping himself in a special class of Trump-backing personalities like Dean Cain, Hulk Hogan, Kid Rock and Dennis Quaid, to name a few.

At the same time, another unlikely group deviated from expectations when the International Brotherhood of Teamsters abstained from endorsing the Democratic candidate for the first time in more than 25 years and decided to remain neutral.

Results from an online and telephone poll of Teamsters union members suggested a majority also support former President Trump over Vice President Harris.

“The Democratic Party has been hijacked by an extreme left-wing progressive ideology, as we've seen even in AOC's comment the other day about probably one of the biggest and most interesting fights against terrorism. [pagers exploding]She criticized that and many on the left are doing that and continue to do so,” Davi told Kilmeade.

So far, Harris has garnered support from fellow Hollywood personalities including George Clooney, Julia Roberts, Ben Stiller, Mark Hamill, Jamie Lee Curtis and rapper Cardi B.
