Mel Gibson Responds to President Trump’s LA Visit: “It’s Like Daddy Arrived, and He’s Taking His Belt Off!”


Actor and director Mel Gibson just shared a hilarious, on-point take in response to President Trump’s Friday visit to fire-ravaged Los Angeles.

Speaking to Sean Hannity, Mel Gibson said, “It’s like Daddy arrived, and he’s taking his belt off, you know?”

Accurate! Gavin, you’re in for an ass-whooping!

You too, Mayor Karen Bass!

Of course, liberals, primarily of the no-spank Millennial generation are up in arms over Mel’s comments!

Here are some examples:

But, many others praised and agreed with Gibson on this:

Daily Mail said:

Mel Gibson shocked viewers by comparing President Donald Trump‘s arrival in California to a father coming home to discipline his children by ‘taking his belt off’.

The Hacksaw Ridge actor, whose Malibu mansion burned down in the wildfires raging across Southern California, joined Friday’s edition of Hannity on Fox News shortly after Trump had an intense sit-down with California officials.

During the heated meeting, the president repeatedly clashed with Democratic politicians, blaming them for ‘not doing enough’ to contain the devastating fires.

Gibson, 69, boldly replied to the tense exchange, which was aired live, likening Trump’s arrival to a father coming home to beat his children.

‘It’s like daddy arrived and he’s taking his belt off,’ he said.

Hannity questioned the Braveheart actor on his ‘frustrating’ experience ‘living through’ the deadly blazes that have leveled over 50,000 acres in the Golden State, according to CalFire.

‘How bad has it been?’ Hannity, 63, asked Gibson on Friday.

‘You’ve been living through these wildfires. You read about hydrants that don’t have water.

‘You read about cutting firefighters’ budgets, you read about reservoirs that are empty. I mean, it’s gotta be frustrating,’ the talk radio show host continued.

‘Well, it is,’ Gibson agreed, addressing his continued frustration with the ‘poor handling’ of the still-burning fires.

‘There are those that say, “They must’ve done it on purpose.” I won’t go that far, but if they didn’t do it on purpose, I think they certainly facilitated it.’ he added.

Five fires remain active in California as of Saturday morning, however, all but the Border 2 Fire, which began on Thursday, have reached at least 80 percent containment.

The Patriot actor extended his condolences to those affected.

‘My heart goes out to all the other residents. You meet people all the time who’ve lost their homes. And you talk and commiserate and buck each other up, and everyone’s putting on a brave face. They’re a good bunch out here,’ he said.

Gibson said he was ‘glad’ the president had arrived, hopeful his presence and handlings of the issues will ‘get results quickly.’

‘I’m glad Trump’s here at the moment,’ he continued. ‘I think he’ll get some results here quickly.’
