Donald Trump Heartily Endorses Jake Paul For Office — But There’s A Big Catch

President Donald Trump offered his “complete and total endorsement” of Jake Paul at a Kentucky rally on Wednesday ― but the YouTuber-turned-boxer isn’t running for office yet.

“I’m gonna make a prediction that you will be, in the not-too-distant future, running for political office,” Trump told the Ohio-born Paul. “And you have my complete and total endorsement!”

“OK?” Trump added. “That’s what we want. He’s an incredible guy. A lot of courage, smarts.”

Paul appeared with Trump at a packaging plant in Hebron, Kentucky, a few hundred miles from where the former Disney Channel star grew up in the Cleveland area.

“What Mr. Trump has taught me is courage,” Paul said. “We never back down from a fight.”

“God’s got us, Trump’s got us,” he added.

Paul’s turn to boxing culminated in a massive payday victory over an aging Mike Tyson in 2024. But Paul hit a roadblock when he got his jaw broken in a knockout loss to former heavyweight champ Anthony Joshua in December 2025. He said he’s still months away from being able to spar.

That could give him time to ponder his political prospects.

But Logan Paul disagreed with his brother’s Trump-aligned condemnation of Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show.
