    The former Governor of California said he made the remarks after Trump slammed the opening night ratings of the NBC show he left before taking office. 'I said, "Let's sit on it for an hour," ' Schwarzenegger told the magazine. 'I called my assistant and said, "I think what we really should do is request a meeting and go back to New York.... And then we just smash his face into the table."'

    Arnold Schwarzenegger just fired back at Donald Trump, telling the president if he's so obsessed with ratings, why not just do a switcheroo and go back to what appears to be his true passion? Arnold just blasted Trump for blasting him at the National Prayer Breakfast Thursday. Trump asked everyone to take a moment and pray for the movie star because his ratings, according to Trump, are a "disaster." Arnold's people just added, "Arnold is praying that President Trump can start improving his own approval ratings, which were the worst in history for an incoming President, by taking his job...

    Actor and former California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger believes it is time for all Americans to throw their support behind President-elect Donald Trump. In an interview on Today Thursday morning, the new host of NBC’s Celebrity Apprentice — who stumped and voted for Ohio Gov. John Kasich in the primaries and later said he would not vote for Trump in the general election — said that now that the election is over, it is important to put divisions aside and come together for the good of the country. “What changed is that now he is elected and now it is very...

    We've been here before. "Six women who came into contact with Arnold Schwarzenegger on movie sets, in studio offices and in other settings over the last three decades say he touched them in a sexual manner without their consent." Gloria Allred was in on this political hit as well. Schwarzenegger did quite well in the recall election as I remember it.

    Add Arnold Schwarzenegger to the growing list of Republicans who have pulled support from Donald Trump. On Saturday, the Terminator star and former Republican governor of California said he will not vote for the Republican candidate in the presidential election for the first time since becoming a citizen in 1983. Schwarzenegger did not say which other candidate he would vote for on Nov. 8.

    Esteban Nunez, 27, pleaded guilty to the 2008 stabbing death of college student Luis Santos in San DiegoThe son of a once-prominent California lawmaker, convicted in the stabbing death of a Bay Area man, has been released from prison after his sentence was reduced by then-Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger. Esteban Nunez, 27, pleaded guilty to the 2008 stabbing death of college student Luis Santos in San Diego. Nunez is the son of Fabian Nunez, who was speaker of the state assembly and a political ally of Schwarzenegger. Prosecutors said Esteban Nunez and three other men were angry because they were refused...

    As every ten-year-old who ever got a sweater for a birthday present has been told, “It’s the thought that counts.” That seems to be the guiding principle at the Department of Energy and the California Public Utilities Commission when it comes to solar power. The latest example is the $2.2 billion Ivanpah solar thermal plant in California. (Note: Solar thermal plants do not use solar panels to directly convert sunshine to electricity, they use sunshine to boil water that then drives conventional turbines.) Here’s the story so far, Ivanpah: Is owned by Google, NRG Energy, and Brightsource, who have a...

    In news that may surprise anyone who saw 2015’s Terminator Genisys, its star Arnold Schwarzenegger has announced that a sixth Terminator film is on the way. In an interview broadcast on Australia’s Channel 9, the 68-year-old screen killing machine and former Governor of California was asked about the possibility of Terminator 6: “I am looking forward to it, absolutely,” Schwarzenegger told host Richard Wilkins, without giving any further details on plot or release date. […] Many assumed the new film was canceled as a result of the disappointing box office performance of Terminator Genisys, which took just $89 million at...

    It's easy for me to understand why people were so favorably disposed toward Trump at first because initially, I liked him, too. I'd read and liked Trump's books, I found him to be gracious in person and I had friends who went to work for him. I also loved his charisma, his stance on the wall, his refreshing lack of political correctness, his scrappiness and his ability to just shrug off what would be career-ending mistakes for other Republican politicians. Unfortunately today, Trump looks to be completely unelectable. There are massive numbers of Republicans pledging not to vote for him...

    Ohio Governor John Kasich, who has staked his Republican presidential campaign on the upcoming contests in the Midwest, said on Monday he would not need a lead in the delegate count before his party's convention to win the nomination, according to media reports. "In order to be the nominee, you have to have a certain number of votes," Kasich said after a town hall in Monroe, Michigan, which holds its presidential primary on Tuesday. "You've got to win. You don't just say, 'Well, I have more than anybody else, therefore I'm in,'" Kasich said, according to the Washington Post. Kasich,...

Kasich jokes that he has "dreams of grandeur" when wearing the jacket. . . Schwarzenegger, the former California governor, is taking over for Kasich’s rival Donald Trump on the 'Celebrity Apprentice' this year.

    Looking at the Trumpsters of today, I am reminded of the rabid Schwarzenegger supporters of yesteryear. Not caring about conservatism, not giving a damn about principles, not caring one bit about anything but winning. Perhaps a few of a Schwarzeneggerites would like to comment about how all of that worked out.

    Donald Trump's visit to the Iowa State Fair was a spectacle... Rob Stutzman...witnessed the scene and experienced flashbacks to the hordes his client, actor Arnold Schwarzenegger, encountered during his unlikely bid for California governor during the 2003 recall election. "It's celebrity appeal," Stutzman said. "Both of them are very skilled at using their celebrity to attract public and media attention," They are wealthy celebrities, so universally branded that they are known by their first names. Schwarzenegger and Trump have a flair for theatrics that play well on the evening news. Some examples: Schwarzenegger dropped a 3,600-pound wrecking ball on an...

    Former California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger says people should go meat-free one or two days a week to protect the climate. Meat-eating was an environmental problem, with farming creating an estimated 28% of global greenhouse gases, the body-builder and movie star told BBC News. Asking people to go totally vegetarian would be too demanding, he said. It would better to suggest giving up meat once or twice a week, he added. When asked how young men would achieve a body like The Terminator - the cyborg assassin in the film of the same name - without steak, he said many successful...

    Although there is a sense that Donald Trump's unusual and outlandish run for the presidency is the first ever of its kind, this is not entirely true. Californians, such as myself, remember how Arnold Schwarzenegger captured the governorship of California in 2003, in a campaign remarkably similar to Trump's. Obviously, governor of California is not the same as president of the United States, but it is the chief executive of the nation's most populous state. That year, California's incumbent Gov. Gray Davis, a Democrat, was pulled from office in a recall election. It was a time of disillusionment and cynicism...

    Arnold Schwarzenegger helped Ohio Gov. John Kasich raise money for his presidential campaign at a Friday event in the Los Angeles area. The actor and former California governor heaped praise on Kasich without making a direct endorsement, people in the room told cleveland.com. Schwarzenegger told the crowd at the Montage Beverly Hills that Kasich "believes like I do in being a public servant not a party servant," according to one source. Schwarzenegger also said that Kasich is the only one making sense at the presidential debates and that he knew Kasich would make a great governor and knows he would...
