- Actor and filmmaker Sylvester Stallone introduced President-elect Donald Trump at the America First Policy Institute (AFPI) Gala on Thursday with a short and sweet speech in which he called Trump the "second George Washington."
The "Rocky" actor was the final speaker of the night – only talking for about two minutes – before the president-elect took the stage at Mar-a-Lago.
When starting off his speech, Stallone began speaking about his "Rocky" character and how he was "going to go through a metamorphosis and change lives, just like President Trump."
"We are in the presence of a really mythical character. Nobody in the world could have pulled off what he pulled off, so I'm in awe," he said.
