Voight was one of Trump’s few celebrity supporters during the campaign.

"He’s a patriot, and the people are responding because they know it’s exactly what has to happen," Voight said in 2016. "Somebody has got to get in there and clean it out — even take the paint off."

"There are a ton of lies, propaganda and slander, and it is very disturbing. And the American people are saying, 'Hey, this is nonsense.' They are on his side now. And they’re right to be," he added.

The actor, known for roles in "Coming Home," "Deliverance" and Showtime’s "Ray Donovan," has kept up his defense of Trump since his presidency began.

"He’s doing a good job every day. He’s doing such a good job every day. He’s doing amazing things, really, and the news is not representing it, and there are people who are trying to cook up slanders and lies to bring him down," Voight said in December.

Huckabee, a former GOP presidential candidate and the father of White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders, has long been a staunch Trump supporter, most recently taking to the airwaves and Twitter to tout special counsel Robert Mueller Robert (Bob) MuellerCNN's Toobin warns McCabe is in 'perilous condition' with emboldened Trump CNN anchor rips Trump over Stone while evoking Clinton-Lynch tarmac meeting The Hill's 12:30 Report: New Hampshire fallout MORE’s conclusion that the president did not collude with Russia during the campaign.

Hope Dems/Media (same thing) answer this: You say @realDonaldTrump didn't really want to win, but accused him of colluding w/ Russians so he could win. It can't be both. Face it-you made the whole thing up. We can't trust you unless you come clean. — Gov. Mike Huckabee (@GovMikeHuckabee) March 25, 2019

Among the other Kennedy Center nominees announced Tuesday are billionaire Kelcy Warren, the chairman Energy Transfer Partners; author Karen LeFrak; businessman Carl Lindner III of American Financial Group; and resort executive Kelly Roberts.
