The Republican presidential candidate once dubbed "The Rocky Balboa of politics" by former Representative Michelle Bachmann, has received the support of a man who ought to know a lot about Rocky Balboa and characters who defy the odds to win it all.
"I love Donald Trump," said actor-director Sylvester Stallone, who created the character of Rocky Balboa for the series of Rocky movies that concluded with last year's release of Creed. "He's a great Dickensian character. You know what I mean? There are certain people like Arnold, Babe Ruth, that are bigger than life."

“Yo Adrian”...ping.
Sly? There’s an endorsement I’d rather not have.
Cool!
He doesn’t apologize for every fake injury the left suffers when he tells the truth. The media smears don’t seem to have much effect. I watched his rally in Vermont, and when protesters started disrupting the speech he told security to throw them out. As it happens, there was a Muslim among them. The next day, MSNBC reports “Trump throws Muslim out of rally”, as though he had singled her out.
Stallone is such a nut case it would be better for Trump to not even acknowledge that support.
“Sylvester Stallone”
Doesn’t this pansy hate guns?
Rather mixed contributions
Are people really sure of what it was that Sylvester Stallone actually said? It is hard to tell, sometimes, because Rambo tends to slur his words so much, that little of which resembles the English language escapes his lips.
Not a criticism, just an observation.

Looks like Rocky took a few too many to the brain tissue.
He’ll get a lot of press because he just won a Golden Globe. Much to his surprise. Nice moment.
Some form of this subject was posted last week. More than likely by another title. Remember it because it was Stallone speaking of a Dickens character compared to TRUMP
and the discussion the topic engaged. Impressive after so be pounds to his head that he does remember Dickens,and his characters.
GO TRUMP!
GO CRUZ!
WTP want both of youse!!
Cut me Mick!
Sly donates to the DNC and he’s rabid anti-gun. A hollywood idiot endorses the chump...priceless.
sorry about that post. not intended for you. Droid went bonkers with weird zoom lag and without auto preview. Droids sux big time
Stallone wrote or co-wrote all the scripts.
Before the phone needed a pulled battery reboot, I was intending to post that Stallone with his distinct NYC accent had a very broad audience nationwide, not to mention worldwide.
Whatever a celebrity endorsement is worth, those that belittle him wouldn’t be voting for Trump in any case.
What Does It Mean To Be Rabelaisian?
by Pierre Beaudry
To be Rabelaisian, means to be totally outrageous, raunchy, crude in every way, absolutely stubborn in matters of truth, relentless against hypocrisy, and against all forms of popular opinion; but, also, in a more profound way, it means AXIOM BUSTING.
That's a pretty fair description of Trump.
