Jake Paul endorses presidential candidate in 18-minute video – but reveals he can’t vote himself
Jake Paul has revealed who he is supporting in the 2024 US presidential election – although he acknowledged he cannot actually run himself.
The boxer, who revoked his right to vote when he moved to Puerto Rico, released a message 18 minute video about X Thursday in which he explained why he wanted Donald Trump to become president.
In the clip, Paul, 27, brings up the economy, border control and even transgenderism as issues that have tilted his thinking toward Trump.
He also told his fans that “God sent me here to tell you this message,” while encouraging them to do their own research.
‘Look at the facts. Think for yourself. Don’t be a sheep in this world full of sheep,â he said.
Jake Paul revealed in a new video on X that he will support Donald Trump
“I’m risking my business, my career during my peak fighting Mike Tyson… because I don’t care about the consequences.”
Paul admitted that Tony Hinchcliffe’s widely reported “garbage” comment about Puerto Rico at the Trump rally at Madison Square Garden was a “bad joke.”
Nevertheless, Paul encouraged fans to “do the right thing and vote for Donald Trump.”
âMost of your favorite celebrities, athletes, they’re all secretly conservative because the left has created a world where conservatives like me speaking out have big, big consequences.â
He added that he expected a response to the video but was not afraid of the “liberal-left media.”
The endorsement isn’t terribly surprising after he called New York a “dumba** Democratic city” while promoting his upcoming Tyson fight in the Big Apple.
Paul also previously said that God saved Trump when he survived an assassination attempt earlier this year.
âI believe God intervened and saved him,â he said. “It’s literally ‘what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.’
âAnd I think that’s probably why God allowed this exact situation to happen â because He saw the path that we were on,â the YouTuber-turned-boxer said at the time.â
Paul and 58-year-old Tyson will fight in Texas on November 15.
