Businessman and Republican nominee Donald Trump aims to reclaim the presidency after his term from 2017 to 2021. In this 2024 race, his campaign again focuses on the slogan “Make America Great Again,” appealing to conservative values and a voter base disillusioned with the current administration.
The political polarization in the United States has shaped this election, with celebrities playing a critical role in swaying public opinion and mobilizing their supporters.
As the election approaches, Trump’s campaign has ramped up efforts to attract undecided voters and solidify existing support. Many prominent entertainment, music, and business figures have backed his candidacy. Among these are:
Elon Musk
The tech mogul has become one of the most significant supporters of Trump’s 2024 campaign. After initially backing Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, Musk shifted his stance towards Trump following a violent incident at a rally. With over 197 million followers on X (formerly Twitter), Musk has used his platform to criticize President Biden’s policies and express support for Trump, even hinting that he could take a position in Trump’s cabinet should he win.
Jon Voight
The Oscar-winning actor and father of Angelina Jolie has been a staunch supporter of Trump since his first campaign. In several interviews, Voight has praised Trump as “the best president since Abraham Lincoln” and has actively participated in fundraising events for his campaign. His unwavering support resonates especially with conservative voters.
Dennis Quaid
During an interview with Piers Morgan, the actor expressed his backing for Trump, stating that it “just makes sense” to support the former president. He also joined Trump at a rally in Coachella on Saturday. Quaid joins other actors like Scott Baio and Kevin Sorbo, who have publicly voiced their support for Trump.
Azealia Banks
The rapper, known for her controversial statements, has supported Trump, which has sparked further controversy given her history of provocative and polarizing comments. She further elaborated that her support is at least semi-ironic, stating, “He’s just f-king funny,” in an interview with ‘The Standard.’ Nevertheless, Banks has used her platform to admire some of Trump’s policies.
Anuel AA and Justin Quiles
These Latino artists have been active at rallies in support of Trump. Anuel AA urged his Puerto Rican followers to vote for Trump, calling him “the best leader the U.S. has had in recent times,” and praised his commitment to improving conditions in Puerto Rico.
Justin Quiles also lauded Trump for not being a “puppet,” emphasizing the importance of Latino support for the former president.
Nicky Jam
The singer expressed his support during a rally in Las Vegas, where he appeared wearing a ‘Make America Great Again’ hat and gave a speech about Trump’s connection with the people. His participation highlights Latino artists’ impact in mobilizing the Hispanic vote.
Hulk Hogan
The former wrestler was among the first celebrities to publicly support Trump during the Republican National Convention (RNC). Hogan tore his shirt to reveal a Trump campaign logo in a memorable act, calling him his “hero” and “the best president the U.S. has ever had.”
Ryan García
The boxer has also voiced his support for Trump, emphasizing that the former president represents values that resonate with many young athletes.
Other Notable Supporters
In addition to those mentioned, other notable figures include actor Rob Schneider, who has been outspoken about his political beliefs; Kid Rock, a constant Trump advocate; and UFC president Dana White.
The backing of these high-profile figures could play a crucial role in shaping the country’s political future.
