Jon Voight Encourages Americans to Unite: ‘This Is a War…Between Truths Versus Lies’
By Movieguide® Staff
Note: Voight’s comments came before the riots and protests at Capitol Hill on Jan. 6, 2021.
Conservative actor Jon Voight is candid about the election and his support for Donald Trump. Just days before protesters stormed the capital building, the 82-year-old encouraged people to cling to righteousness and not unrighteousness.
“We shall not let America sink to these fools, who are Democrats, and now some Republicans, who have jumped to the trails of unrighteousness,” Voight said in a video posted on Twitter on Jan. 3, 2021.
The actor encouraged Americans to stand up together, regardless of political affiliation, and protect their country from “the dark cloud of destruction.”
“America, land of the free, will not stand for freedom if we allow these dark clouds of destruction. We must tear down the walls of Jericho. We must not allow our fears to follow the path of evil. We all must rise now, for God now has heard our cries,” Voight said.
Voight continued to call people to unite regardless of skin color, religion, or creed, to fight for truth, justice, freedom, and God.
“This is a war, a war that is about to open up now, between truths versus lies. We, the people, must open our eyes to this truth: that this election is, by far, the biggest scandal of 2020,” Voight said. “Can justice prevail? Can truths prevail?
Voight continued: “Well, my friends of every religion, race, color: this is not a race. This is about God. This now is about safety, our trust, our given truths. We all ask now, ‘What will be? How will our nation be free?’ A land that once stood with pride, with freedom, and dreams for the American people.”
Voight concluded with a call to stand for America and the freedoms God has given us in our nation.
“Well, my friends: it must still be. And, we all will understand this one day, because President Trump is standing, and will always stand, for America’s freedom and the words of our greatness: ‘In God we trust,’” Voight said.
