Actor Jon Voight has predicted Donald Trump will make a return to the White House as president.
The Midnight Cowboy star called for people to support Trump to "stop the deceit" of "the left" and urged his followers to "wake up."
Posting a grainy, two-minute video to Twitter captioned "Wake Up America," Voight spoke to camera and said if the public supported Trump "we could rise to our glory" as a country.
"We're in danger of a third world war," he warned. "Can you not see the lie? Wake up."
Voight continued: "It's a dark web. A dark world. But not for long. A change is coming.
"A new light will emerge. The one president who understood truths ... Trump will return to the presidency. Allow Trump to rebuild our soil and our land so we can rise to our glory."
He captioned the tweet "Wake Up America" and racked up half a million views in a matter of hours.
"God bless America. Let us all wish this great land a healing from all the unrighteousness that is taking place," he began.
"Can you not all see this lie? We must all wake up, wake up, because if we don't see this lie, this land will die. Die in its beauty. Its freedom, its opportunity. It's supposed to be the land of the free it's far from it. It's a dark web, a dark world, but not for long, because my friends the change is coming and a new light will emerge."
Voight continued: "We must all see this truth and allow justice to take place now. You see, the only way we can win these elections is to see the lies, deceit and corruption from the left and media and the unknowns."
The actor said, "we know who they are" and people should "vote for true justice for all."
"Let us pray that the one president who understood truths and had the best interest of the American people the American dream, President Donald Trump will return to the presidency," Voight declared.
"He and only he can stop the swamp of this deceit and injustice. My fellow Americans wake up, wake up from this land and bringing back life, justice, truth and the only land that's meant for dreams of goodness, the land of the free, America the greatest land, the greatest soil for mankind."
He concluded: "The land where, here, heroes fought for the truth. And this my friends, this will allow President Trump to rebuild our soil and our land so we can rise to it."
The long-time Trump supporter is no stranger to posting supportive videos for the former president on Twitter.
In August, he slammed the FBI's raid on Mar-a-Lago as the start of a "third world war."
The FBI searched Trump's residence in Florida as part of an investigation into the removal of presidential records from the White House.
In his video Voight said: "Did they ever attack Obama's home or Clinton's? And why not? Because President Trump knows that the swamp are all lies and he once drowned them, and they're all afraid you will see the truths. Wake up America, see this lie."
The actor who is Angelina Jolie's father, also voiced his support for Trump to run in the 2024 presidential campaign.
"This is America and my fellow Americans, I'm proud to be an American, and I know that we will be saved, that there is a plan," he said.
"That the one president who had our true trust was President Donald Trump, and he will do it all over again. With the prayers, the hope, the love, the trust of all the American people once again, may God watch over all and make this land great again."
