Actor and singer Zachary Levi on Monday told Hollywood's “closeted” conservatives that it's “now or never” to publicly express his true political views and support for Republican candidate Donald Trump. So I sent a message.
“The View” co-host Whoopi Goldberg said On the Oct. 1 show, Levi's previous claims that Hollywood is a “very liberal city” were “BS” and he called actors Jon Voight and Dennis Quaid “Republicans who work in the industry.” I gave this as an example. In response to Goldberg, Levi said on his Instagram Story that Hollywood's “closed-minded Trump supporters” are calling Trump out of fear of “repercussions” because the industry “won't exist anytime soon.” He insisted that people should not be deterred from supporting him.
“There's a lot of people who are afraid to say publicly that they're going to vote for Donald Trump or be conservative in any way. They've sent me a lot of messages. They're afraid to vote for Donald Trump or be conservative in any way. They've sent me a lot of messages. There are a lot of people,” Levi said. “That's why they're invisible and why they're not so prevalent or noticeable because they know this kind of shit has repercussions. But like I said, So, guys, our industry is going to be gonzo, it's already been. We're being eroded, we're already pretty eroded, you guys out there, anyway. , my cry to hidden conservatives and hidden Trump supporters is now or never.”
“Do whatever you think you need to do. If you need to come out and say it publicly, and you still can't say it, then you should stop. I will never pressure you to do that. But if what you fear is an industry backlash that won't exist anytime soon, don't let that hold you back.'' Levi continued.

“To Whoopi's point, maybe there was more balance back in the day,” Levi said. “And there have always been conservative-leaning stars who can say things like that. But first of all, you have to be at a certain level in your career to get away with that. But Second, that was also at the time. And just to name Jon Voight and Dennis Quaid, you can only really name Jon Voight, Whoopi, and as for Dennis Quaid. I think it really speaks to the fact that someone else had to help out, and out of the thousands of actors in Hollywood, I could only name two. Besides.”
Levi approved President Trump before introducing former presidential candidates Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Tulsi Gabbard on stage at a rally in Michigan on September 28. The actor said he grew up in a conservative Christian household that instilled in him a “healthy level of distrust of government” and an “out-of-control industry.”
