Hollywood celebrities never learn their lesson.
They keep sticking their noses where they don’t belong.
And Charlie Sheen’s dad gave Donald Trump one piece of advice that will make you laugh out loud.
Fake TV president lectures real president on "being human"
Actor Martin Sheen spent four years pretending to be a president on television.
Now he thinks that qualifies him to tell the actual President of the United States how to do his job.
Sheen appeared on MSNBC’s left-wing commentator Nicolle Wallace’s podcast to trash Trump and his administration.¹
"It’s a mighty battle going on. It’s not about winning or losing. It’s about being in touch with your own personal humanity because there’s such a lack of it coming from this administration," Sheen stated.¹
The 85-year-old actor who played President Jed Bartlett on NBC’s The West Wing then launched into a bizarre rant about Trump’s cabinet.
"I’m convinced of this — that when you look at this group of people at the round table in the White House, the cabinet room, every one of those people look across the table and they do not see anyone who is better than they are," Sheen claimed.¹
He rambled on about how there’s "no heroes in there" and "no music" in Trump’s cabinet meetings – because apparently Martin Sheen knows what happens behind closed doors at the White House.¹
"There’s no laughter. There’s no self-effacement. There’s no joy in that room. It smells of ego and fear and false worship," Sheen added.¹
The timing of Sheen’s attack reveals everything
Here’s what makes Sheen’s lecture particularly absurd.
He delivered this sermon on humanity while Trump was literally in the Middle East bringing 20 Israeli hostages home after two years in Hamas captivity.²
Trump just brokered a historic ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas that world leaders signed in Egypt.²
All the surviving hostages were reunited with their families.²
Trump addressed the Israeli Knesset to a standing ovation.²
And while families were crying tears of joy at seeing their loved ones alive, Martin Sheen was on MSNBC calling Trump "the biggest nothing in the world."¹
Sheen has a long history of failed anti-Trump activism
This isn’t Sheen’s first rodeo attacking Trump.
Back in December 2016, he led an army of Hollywood celebrities trying to convince Republican electors not to certify Trump’s election victory.³
The campaign became such a laughingstock that political experts called it "an episode that made America look more like a banana republic."³
Sheen has previously labeled Trump "an empty-headed moron," a "bum," a "hustler," and "a bad man."⁴
He’s been arrested more than 70 times at various left-wing protests over the years.⁵
The actor got himself handcuffed at a Jane Fonda climate change protest on Capitol Hill in 2020.⁵
None of it worked.
Trump won in 2016, survived four years of Democrat witch hunts, and came back stronger in 2024 with a landslide victory.
The contrast between fake president and real president
Let’s compare what Martin Sheen accomplished versus what Donald Trump achieved.
Sheen played a fictional president who solved fictional problems with fictional solutions written by Hollywood screenwriters.
Trump became the actual President who secured the release of real hostages from real terrorists and brokered a real peace deal in the Middle East.
Former President Joe Biden spent four years trying and failing to free those hostages.⁶
Trump got it done in nine months.
The irony got even thicker when Biden himself praised Trump for the achievement.
"I commend President Trump and his team for their work to get a renewed ceasefire deal over the finish line," Biden wrote.⁶
Former President Bill Clinton also gave Trump credit for the peace agreement.⁷
Democrats can’t let Trump have any victories
The desperation behind Sheen’s attack reveals the Left’s real problem.
For years Democrats and their media allies claimed Trump was too unstable for diplomacy.
They said his confrontational style with adversaries would lead to World War III.
They dismissed the Abraham Accords as meaningless photo ops.
Now Trump just achieved what Biden couldn’t in four years – brought peace to Gaza and freed the hostages.
Suddenly those same Democrats praising Trump’s diplomatic breakthrough have a massive credibility problem.
Their entire narrative about Trump being dangerous for foreign policy just collapsed.
So Hollywood actors like Martin Sheen have to keep attacking Trump even during his greatest humanitarian triumph.
They can’t allow him to get credit for anything positive.
Because if voters see Trump succeeding at peace negotiations, creating jobs, and keeping America safe, Democrats lose their main talking points heading into future elections.
Americans see through the charade
Social media users immediately called out Sheen’s hypocrisy.
"Martin is an actor. He’s a man who pretends to be someone else; speaks someone else’s words and does what another person directs him to do. President Trump just brought peace to Gaza and secured the release of the hostages. Martin should perhaps be quiet for a moment," one person wrote.⁸
"An actor preaching about authenticity to one of the most real people on the planet," another noted.⁸
"And yet, ‘the biggest nothing’ just helped return 20 hostages to their families. Hamas now has zero leverage. But hey anyone could have done that," a third person pointed out.⁹
The American people aren’t buying what Martin Sheen is selling.
They watched Trump accomplish in months what the so-called foreign policy experts said was impossible.
They saw families reunited with loved ones they feared were dead.
They witnessed world leaders gather in Egypt to sign Trump’s peace agreement.
No amount of Hollywood lectures about "humanity" can erase those results.
Martin Sheen can keep pretending he knows better than the real President.
But voters know the difference between someone who plays make-believe on television and someone who gets real results that save real lives.
