PALM BEACH, FL — Actor Sylvester Stallone made headlines Thursday night after introducing former President Donald Trump at a Mar-a-Lago event, likening him to the nation’s first president, George Washington.

During his remarks, Stallone praised Trump as a “mythical character” and expressed admiration for his accomplishments. “We are in the presence of a really mythical character. I love mythology,” Stallone said to attendees.

The actor elaborated, stating, “This individual does not exist on this planet. Nobody in the world could have pulled off what he pulled off.”

Stallone further drew comparisons between Trump and George Washington, describing Washington as a transformative figure who “had no idea that he was going to change the world.” He added, “Guess what? We got the second George Washington.”

The event marked another high-profile endorsement of Trump, who has long maintained a close relationship with Stallone. Stallone’s comments came amid ongoing speculation about Trump’s 2024 political aspirations, with many supporters rallying around the former president at his Florida estate.

Stallone, best known for his roles in “Rocky” and “Rambo,” did not elaborate further on the comparison but received applause from the crowd. Representatives for Trump did not provide additional comment.
