Sylvester Stallone Compares Trump to Slave Owner Who Also Had Wooden Teeth (No Fluoride)

Share

Last night at Mar-a-Lago Sylvester Stallone came out of the closet.

He went full MAGA, giving a speech at a Trump party in which he compared the next president to a man who owned slaves and had wooden teeth.

That would be George Washington.

It’s no surprise that Stallone, who’s moved to Florida, is a Trumper. That he’s connected Washington — who owned 123 slaves by the time he died — is pretty hilarious. Washington had wooden teeth because the water so bad in 1789. Trump is going to let Robert Kennedy Jr. eliminate fluoride in the drinking water in 2025. Wooden teeth may be making a comeback!

Stallone is not exactly a progressive person. Two years ago he went after his “Rocky” producer, Irwin Winkler, with antisemitic drawings on Instagram. Stallone is angry that Winkler, who owns the “Rocky” franchise, won’t just give it back to him.

Stallone is in the twilight of his career. The movie part is over, and what’s left is “Tulsa King,” a kind of middling TV soap opera. Backing Trump is a very Charlton Heston move. Maybe he’ll be made head of the Department of Boxing in the new administration.
