While announcing that he was backing Donald Trump over the weekend, actor Zachary Levi said he could be committing political suicide.
Donald Trump's doesn't have many people willing to openly support him and Levi is one of the more successful celebrities willing to do so. The Shazam star told the crowd:
"We’re here to make sure that we are going to take back this country. We are going to make it great again. We are going to make it healthy again. And so, I stand with Bobby, and I stand with Tulsi, and I stand with everyone else who is standing with President Trump. He’s gonna get us there because he’s gonna have the backing and the support and the wisdom and the knowledge and the fight that exists in Robert Kennedy Jr. and former representative Tulsi Gabbard."
The actor also discussed the possibility that endorsing Trump could end up hurting his career, continuing, "Within my industry as you can probably imagine, Hollywood is a very, very liberal town and this very well could constitute career suicide, so I’m glad I did it with you guys."
To be fair, Levi's career as a leading man was likely over before he ever endorsed Trump. His last two films, Harold and the Purple Crayon and Shazam: Fury of the Gods, were box office bombs.
