The election campaign in the United States is becoming increasingly outspoken. One of Kamala Harris's biggest (literally and figuratively) allies among Hollywood stars, Dave Bautista, did everything he could on a TV programme to ridicule Donald Trump.

Dave Bautista, a former wrestling star and now a popular actor, has been supporting Kamala Harris in her bid for the presidency of the United States for several weeks. On Wednesday, he appeared on Jimmy Kimmel's programme, commenting on the main premise of Donald Trump's campaign — that the Republican candidate is a tough guy.
In his programme, Kimmel humorously attempted to explain why many men in the U.S. want to vote for Trump in the polls. He claimed that voters perceived him as an alpha male. "But is he the strong alpha man these men believe him to be? Not according to one of the toughest guys I know, he isn't," Kimmel said. Viewers then saw a film shot with Bautista in a boxing gym.
"A lot of men seem to think that Donald Trump is some kind of tough guy. He's not. I mean, look at him, he wears more makeup than Dolly Parton," the actor joked.
Then, a clip appears in the film where Trump says, "Mom, take me home. Mom, I want to go home" (the presidential candidate used this phrase to mock opponents at his rallies). " What's wrong, tough guy? Did someone grab you by the P&$$y?" Bautista commented.
