YouTuber and professional boxer Jake Paul released a video on Thursday endorsing President Donald Trump.
The 18-minute video encouraged viewers to vote to “literally save America.”
“Uh nervous, scared to make this video because of what it means in terms of my career, my life, people coming after me, more accusations, more turmoil, more division potentially. However, I just want to provide information to the potentially undecided voter [about] the things that I have seen over the last couple of years that have led me in a certain direction as to who I am supporting in this presidential election,” he began.
“And most of all, encouraging y’all to actually vote, encouraging y’all to actually do your own research, and to base that research in the truth – not just reckless propaganda or your favorite pop star telling you to vote a certain way and you believing them because you love their song,” he continued.
Paul also spoke out against the divisions of politics, emphasizing the importance of love and unity.
“I believe love is the key to the universe and that we should all love each other more and more and more, and it saddens me that in the current political state of the world, in America people can’t have opinions without outrageous backlash… It shows that we are more divided than ever and I can’t sit back and watch this blasphemy unfold in front of me any longer,” he said.
Paul continued to address several issues throughout his lengthy endorsement. For example, he stated he would never send his daughter to a school where men could enter a women’s restroom or compete in sports together.
The popular social media influencer also blasted Democrats, noting they have held power for most of the last 16 years with little results.
“Democrats have been in power for 12 of the last 16 years. So, if we aren’t happy with the current political state, economic state, environmental state, then who is to blame?” he asked.
Paul concluded with a passionate plea to vote for Trump.
“Please, go, for the love of God, go exercise your right to vote on my behalf and vote for Donald Trump in this election. America depends on it,” he said.
