NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Jordan Belfort, also renowned as ‘The Wolf of Wall Street’ recently admitted on 'The Megyn Kelly Show' that he will “take Donald Trump any day of the week” from the “GOP Party.”

She asked, “Do you have a favorite on the GOP side who you’re rooting for?”

After being asked the tricky question, Belfort responded with clarity. He said, “I loved DeSantis and I really hoped he get the traction he was going to get.”

On Trump, Belfort mentioned, “There’s the thing that I love about Trump and then there’s things that I hate about Trump. I think Trump is his own worst enemy but I look at the world under his presidency, it was a better world.”

Belfort claimed that Biden’s policy to “give up energy independence set the stage for so much awful s**t.”

He then continued to talk about Trump and said, “I have mixed emotions about Trump. If you look at what was going on, it was very good for the country but there’s also like this divisiveness. Granted, he was attacked and framed for things he didn’t do so he’s under constant attack.”

Belfort questioned himself, “Do I think he’s the nicest guy in the world? No, and I was hoping for a better version of him.”

He later declared that if the choice comes to be between Biden and Trump, he will choose Trump.

“But if it’s Trump or Biden, I’ll take Trump any day of the week and twice on Sundays, I’ll tell you that much.”

“Trump, as president, life was better everywhere. We need him back 24,” said another.

“Trump's policies are always good for America. We don't pay attention to negative things about him. They don't like Trump coz he's doing the right thing for America,” quipped another.

A user praised Belfort and wrote, “He is spot on with his assessment.”
