If you’ve been following the ongoing 2024 presidential election, you already know how confusing, bizarre, and overtly partisan this rhetoric is across all sides of the political spectrum. In recent weeks, many celebrities, from Taylor Swift to Zachary Levi, have made their political views known and implored the American public to get out and vote. In a recent promotional video, one popular actor, Guardians of the Galaxy’s Dave Bautista, calls Republican candidate and 34-time convicted felon Donald Trump a ‘tough guy’ through a series of scathing insults. We took things one step further by removing the image completely.
It’s no surprise that Dave Bautista has strong feelings about the former president, as he has previously used his platform to publicly support Democratic candidates and put Vice President Kamala Harris in the Oval Office.
Originally compiled as part of a Jimmy Kimmel Live segment, the video is approximately two minutes long. In the piece, Dave Bautista explains sternly, “A lot of men seem to think Donald Trump is some kind of tough guy. He is not like that.” From there, the Drax actor launches into a well-orchestrated rambling speech, admonishing Trump for everything from his appearance to his political record to his overall temperament, which has been the subject of much scrutiny from both Democrats and Republicans.

Bautista has also publicly expressed support for marginalized groups, such as the LGBTQ community and political associates of Donald Trump, who have come under constant attack from the Trump campaign. Batista is trying to dismantle the notion that Trump is a ‘man’s man’ through fiery insults, and we know this because he’s said so from the beginning.
Needless to say, the comments on the actor’s Instagram video reveal a range of feelings among American voters, including some who think Vice President Harris should use Dave Bautista’s comments in an actual political attack ad.
As the video begins, Dave Bautista can be seen sparring in the gym, flexing his massive muscles and hitting heavy bags while cataloging Trump’s business failures, embarrassing virus incidents and countless social missteps. In particular, Batista highlighted Donald Trump’s history of dodging the draft to avoid fighting for his country, the fact that he relied on help to get up and down small inclines, and even pointed out the 45th president’s cardboard stand-up, then described his body as “buttermilk.” “Full garbage bag.” The former wrestler-turned-actor humorously compared Trump to Dolly Parton, not once but twice claiming he wears outrageous makeup and sports “kettles.” “Big Things,” much like the queen of country music.
Dave Bautista ends the video by blaming Donald Trump for his fear of things like rain, dogs, and acclaimed actress Meryl Streep.

Others have taken issue with Batista’s role in ousting Donald Trump, arguing that the 34-time convicted felon is better suited for the presidency than a woman who served as a defense attorney, attorney general and U.S. senator before joining the Biden administration. do. As vice president.

He then laughs heartily at a fast-paced edit of embarrassing Trump footage, which includes a bizarre clip of Trump’s wife publicly avoiding him, his hair blowing in the wind, and at one point the commander-in-chief looking extremely awkward. While wearing a cowboy hat in a room full of donors. Bautista’s final words contain a series of profanities used to describe the controversial Republican, and the ad ends with a voiceover saying, “Men who can still see their d**ks paid for it.” This is included.
