El Gallo posted an 18-minute long video in which he stated his reasons for backing Donald Trump in the presidential election. Even though The Problem Child rescinded his right to vote when he moved to Puerto Rico in 2021, he still wants to be a voice of change for the people of the U.S. The 27-year-old started by saying “I am nervous, scared to make this video” as it can have a lasting impact on his career and life. It can lead to more accusations and can impact his career massively. But he wants “to provide information to undecided voters” and guide them.

Over 18 minutes, Jake Paul talked about various issues including the economy, border control, women’s safety, and more. He explicitly stated, “We need to change from Kamala Harris to the Republican candidate, Donald Trump.” He called out Joe Biden and Harris for funding outside war and because of that “thousands of Americans who don’t have supplies, who don’t have basic needs met.”

Paul finished the long speech by saying that “most of your favorite celebrities, athletes, and all of that are secretly conservative.” According to him, everyone is scared to speak for what is right because they are scared and he wants to be the voice of change.

Another fan appreciated the long video posted by the 10-1 boxer while criticizing other celebrities.

Big difference!” According to him, other celebrities’ videos are not educational enough and are just like instructions. While Paul explained everything in a surreal manner that could have an impact.
