Actor Dave Bautista mocks Trump in lively TV show appearance
The election campaign in the United States is becoming increasingly outspoken. One of Kamala Harris's biggest (both literally and figuratively) allies among Hollywood stars, Dave Bautista, went all out on a TV show to ridicule Donald Trump.

Dave Bautista, a former wrestling star turned famous actor, has been supporting Kamala Harris in her bid for the presidency of the United States for weeks. On Wednesday, he appeared on Jimmy Kimmel's show, where he took a jab at the central premise of Donald Trump's campaign — that the Republican candidate is a tough guy.
On his show, Kimmel humorously tried to explain why many men in the U.S. want to vote for Trump according to polls. He claimed that voters see him as an alpha male. "But is he the strong alpha man these men believe him to be? Not according to one of the toughest guys I know, he isn’t," Kimmel said, as viewers saw a film featuring Bautista in a boxing gym.
"A lot of men seem to think that Donald Trump is some kind of tough guy. He's not. I mean, look at him, he wears more makeup than Dolly Parton," the actor joked.
"He whines like a baby. The guy is afraid of birds. He’s barely strong enough to hold an umbrella. And you know that little dance he does?" Bautista mocked Trump.
Then, a clip appeared in the film where Trump says, "Mommy, take me home, I want to go home" (the presidential candidate used this phrase to mock opponents at his rallies). "What’s wrong, tough guy?" commented Bautista.
