Actor and comic Michael Rapaport has done a complete 180 on former president Donald Trump after “talking trash” about him for years.
Earlier this year, Rapaport began hinting he was considering voting for Trump.
During an appearance on the Sage Steele podcast, Rapaport admitted that he was wrong about Trump, most notably with economic issues and Israel.
“I was wrong. ‘Cause. I talked shit about Jared [Kushner] … I was first in line talking shit about Trump. All day, every day,” Rapaport said, adding that he still didn’t like Trump’s “month” or some of his behavior.
However, he admitted Trump had been fully supportive of Israel and drained Iran’s ability to finance terror.
“I’m now a one-issue voter: my money and Israel,” he said.
“I’m not voting for Kamala Harris. I can’t do it,” he continued. “I can’t support a party that is about all this bulls—.”
But Rapaport stopped short of saying he was going to vote for Trump.
“At the end of the day, I want my interest rates down… and Israel needs to be protected more than ever right now,” he said about his two voting priorities.
“While there’s eight American hostages in Gaza, they didn’t show up, proudly. Bernie and the burnouts, the Squad, all these race-hustling con artists,” he blasted.
“They weaponize it to a point that it’s dangerous.”
“I don’t care what you think of [Netanyahu],” he continued.
“Israel is America’s biggest ally, while we’re under siege, not just from Hamas…but also proxies from Iran. This isn’t just about Israel.”
He went on to slam Hollywood and the sports world for not speaking out on October 7
“We speak out about everything. It could be climate change, it could be women’s rights, it could be abortion rights, LGBTQ —we say stuff about everything,” he said.
“The silence has been madly deafening,” he continued.

“My money, Israel” are his reasons. Biden has been draining your bank account for 4 years you imbecile. Wonder if he’ll change his tune when he finds out Kam is married to a Jew ?
Rapport comes off as a mental case but it might just be an act he puts on but it’s nice to see him come around on Trump
A lot of blacks will be turned off to kamala when they find out she’s married to a ‘white guy’
I’m not Rapaport, and I approved this message.
The dude can't count.
Lol
Good for him, now make good choices for twenty some more years and I’ll care what you think about politics.
Maybe. But it’s too late now that violence and lawlessness are completely normalized
Thanks, “Slow Joe”
I don’t care what George Clooney thinks about politics. Pretty sure I don’t care what Rappaport thinks either.
Why do we keep giving these people “power.” Their opinions mean no more or less to the world than the guy sitting next to you at the bar.
This guy barely hits my radar. He seems to be too isolated on Israel and his mortgage rates but he will take a lot of heat for being outspoken and for that he gets an atta-boy.
He’s very street smart and comes from well off family. His dad was a partner in the Improv Comedy Nightclub chain where this guy got his start as a stand-up comedian. He knows how to work a crowd.

There are some things Trump says that I wish were left unsaid, but it's not stopping mem from supporting him based on platform, not personality.
And lest we forget, which has been deeply memory holed, his success with N. Korea.
He made the right decision for all the wrong issues. White liberals are all in on the progressive agenda until it affects them.
FTA: All day, every day,” Rapaport said, adding that he still didn’t like Trump’s “month” or some of his behavior.

Gee, which month would that be?
Why is it so difficult for these people to proofread?
They have all become reliant on computer spell-checkers to ‘proofread’ their mistakes..............
This clown claims to be an actor? Pi$$ off, moron.
Is this like a three-letter word, “Jobs”?
