It's a story of two candidates.

While Vice President Kamala Harris continues to draw support from stars like Billie Eilish, Chris Rock, Meryl Streep, Oprah and Taylor Swift, former President Trump appears to have the majority of support from members of the Teamsters union, a historically blue voting bloc.

“They’re not common people,” actor Robert Duffy, who has appeared in films such as “The Goonies,” “Die Hard” and “Licence to Kill,” told Fox News on Saturday.

“It’s not the truckers’ union members who make the groups successful. Sixty percent of the truckers’ union members support Donald Trump. So there’s a huge gap in terms of money and understanding of the problems our nation faces.”

Duffy broke ranks with the Hollywood crowd with his support for the former president, and remains in a special category of Trump-supporting figures like Dean Cain, Hulk Hogan, Kid Rock, and Dennis Quaid, to name a few.

Online and telephone polls of Teamsters union members indicate that a majority support former President Trump over Vice President Harris as well.

“The Democratic Party has been hijacked by an extremist ideology from the left, as we saw from Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s comment the other day about what seemed to be one of the most interesting battles against terrorism.” [pagers exploding]“I have criticised that, and a lot of leftists do that, and they continue to do that,” Duffy told Kilmeade.

So far, Harris has received support from other Hollywood figures such as George Clooney, Julia Roberts, Ben Stiller, Mark Hamill, Jamie Lee Curtis, and rapper Cardi B.
