WASHINGTON, DC. (THECOUNT) — The White House announced on Sunday that President Donald J. Trump will award actor Jon Voight the National Medal of Arts later this week.

Voight, one of Trump’s most vocal Hollywood supporters, will be honored at a White House ceremony on Thursday for his “exceptional capacity as an actor to portray deeply complex characters,” the White House said in a statement.
