Dave Bautista made headlines with a viral roast of Donald Trump during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! In a segment aired on Wednesday night, the Guardians of the Galaxy actor took aim at the perception of Trump as a masculine figure while working out in a gym. Bautista’s comments served as both a comedic critique and a promotional push for Kamala Harris, who is facing challenges appealing to male voters.
Bautista argued, “A lot of men seem to think that Donald Trump is some kind of tough guy. He’s not. Look at him. He wears more makeup than Dolly Parton. He whines like a baby. The guy’s afraid of birds. Donald Trump had his daddy pay a doctor to say his feet hurt so he could dodge the Vietnam War draft. Look at that gut — like a garbage bag full of buttermilk. He sells imaginary baseball cards pretending to be a cowboy-fireman. He’s barely strong enough to hold an umbrella. Look how he drinks water — like a little pink chickadee. He’s got jugs, big ones — like Dolly Parton. He cheats at golf and creeps around beauty pageant dressing rooms. You know that little dance he does? He looks like he’s jacking off a pair of giraffes.”
Continuing his critique, Bautista added, “He’s moody, he pouts, he throws tantrums. He acts like a 5-year-old behind the wheel of a truck. He bends over for Russian President Vladimir Putin. He’s cattier on social media than a mean girl. The guy needs help walking downhill. This November, let’s stop kidding ourselves. Donald Trump is afraid of rain, of dogs, of windmills, Meryl Streep, and being laughed at. Mostly, he’s terrified that real, red-blooded American men will find out that he’s a weak tubby toddler. What’s wrong, tough guy? Did someone grab you by the pussy? Little bitch.”
The roast has certainly caught attention and sparked conversations across social media.
