Avengers actor and former WWE wrestler Dave Bautista mocks Donald Trump as weak and overweight in a video on Jimmy Kimmel’s show that attempts to puncture his carefully cultivated tough guy image.
‘Is he the strong Alpha Man that many voters believe him to be? According to one of the toughest guys I know, it’s not,” says Kimmel, presenting the sketchafter saying that ‘young, straight, white men love Donald Trump’ and ‘see him as ‘macho, macho.’
It begins in a boxing ring, where Bautista shows off his physical prowess and declares, “Friends, we need to talk.”
“Many men seem to think that Donald Trump is some kind of tough guy. He’s not.
He then goes through a series of one-liners. ‘Look at it. “She wears more makeup than Dolly Parton,” he says, as the camera pans to a tanned image of Trump.
He says that “the guy is afraid of birds” and “he asked his dad to pay a doctor to tell him that his feet hurt so he could avoid mandatory military service,” referring to the bone spurs that left him. They kept them out of Vietnam but they have not prevented it. outside the golf courses.
Actor and retired WWE wrestler Dave Bautista attempts to take on Donald Trump’s Alpha male image in a Jimmy Kimmel sketch.
The video shows unflattering images of Trump’s “guts,” which he compares to a “garbage bag full of buttermilk.”
Other jokes address Trump’s challenges with an umbrella, the superhero-style trading cards he sells, and his challenges drinking from very small water bottles, to laughter from the Jimmy Kimmel Live crowd.
That contrasts with Bautista, who played Drax in the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise, performing various feats of strength while ranting that Trump “cheats at golf” and has “jugs, big ones, like Dolly Parton.”
Some of the insults are not appropriate for all ages, but Bautista also says that he is “in a bad mood, pouts, throws tantrums” and “bows down to Putin.”
The joke drew laughter from the studio audience, but it takes on a vulnerability that is quite serious for Kamala Harris: the erosion of support among men.
It’s part of the landscape of an election in which the candidate seeking to be the first female president faces off against Trump, who is making the champion of “fight, fight, fight” and surviving an assassin’s bullet a central part of his effort for re-election.

Comedian Jimmy Kimmel said that “young, straight, white men love Donald Trump” and “see him as ‘macho, macho,'” referring to the Village People song played at Trump rallies.
The sketch features unflattering images of Trump.
Trump has long touted the prowess of the U.S. military, saying he eliminated a top Iranian military leader and accusing his rivals of being “weak” or “losers.” Their convention featured Hulk Hogan, and their rallies featured James Brown’s “It’s a Man’s Man’s Man’s World.”
Trump has a 10-point lead among men in the latest Wall Street Journal poll. Harris is gaining a strong lead among women, and abortion is becoming a top issue.
Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk told podcast listeners that “if you’re a man in this country and you don’t vote for Donald Trump, you’re not a man.”
Former President Barack Obama warned black men, amid signs of his support for Harris eroding.
“Are you thinking about sitting down or supporting someone who has a history of putting you down, because you think that’s a sign of strength, because that’s what being a man is?” Obama asked in Pennsylvania. “That is not acceptable.”
