Danny Trejo wants felons to be able to vote after prison and he rips Trump over prison reform.

United States Headlines News

United States Latest News, United States Headlines

We got the actor -- who spent years in various prisons back in the day -- at Trejo's Cantina in Hollywood, and asked him if prisoners should be allowed to vote from behind bars, or while on probation or parole.

Danny says ex-inmates should be allowed to vote, along with people being held in county jails before they've been convicted. He's staunchly in favor of states -- like Florida has done -- restoring voting rights to folks who complete their prison bids. As for prison reform's impact on the election -- Danny scoffs at President Trump tooting his own horn. Despite, the fact POTUS signed the First Step Act into law ... Trejo doesn't think he deserves all the credit.

Instead, he says Trump's just standing on the shoulders of people like Kim K ... and while he's overlooking one HUGE issue for America's overcrowded prisons.

Who cares if ex-cons vote...no ones vote really counts as long as the electoral college I still around

Ex-con turned Hollywood actor hates Trump? Who would have thought.

Crime family.

If ex cons pay taxes, then they should be able to vote!

Nope they lost that privilege when they committed the crime.

Kentucky and other states allow non-violent ex-felons to vote. So why don’t California allow it ? Gavin and gang don’t allow it why ?

I guess he supports Biden bill that jailed 10,000 of 1,000 that Trump let a lot of prison and reduced long term sentences for small ammounts of drugs

They vote in Puerto Rico,is the law, don't agree but, here all corrupt citizen is entitled to vote ,that's why the current government in this isla is the ideal example of whats is called the mafia criminals in the government.look them up,use this an example.

Liberals love criminals

Well he was in Con Air so he is clearly knowledgeable.

Violent offenders & sex offenders don’t deserve freedom or the right to vote.

That's a state by state decision. Most of the country you can vote. Danny Trejo we have room for you in Chicago. Illionois allows you to vote.

Stupid,move one

What does he think about Bidens crime bill 🤡

Oh but he’s granted clemency to 50 people in his first term, though yeah, some were his buddies. Fun fact, Obama granted clemency to 1,900 in his two terms.

I think they should vote but they shouldn't get a bailout from a certain Democratic Billionaire with ulterior motives

Just so everyone knows, Danny Trejo is a murdering shitbird. POS served 11 years for murder, robbery and drug charges barely escaping California's gas chamber. Source San Quentine News.

Yeah, but if it weren’t for Trump, tens of thousands might be able (soon) to vote while they were still in jail.

He’s an idiot causedannytrejo should be blaming all the previous presidents that had that in place prior to trump.

I dont know anyone that agrees with ex-cons being able to vote.

Well it’s designed like that, they been rigging the game for a long ass time.

Who cares?

What a dope!!

Mark_Sheppard I have always thought that it was odd that former cons can't vote but a current criminal can run the country.

Mark_Sheppard Machete Does Vote

They definitely should be able to!!! They’ve served their time and they pay taxes just like the rest of us so why not let them! Just another way the justice system keeps ex-cons down.

Everyone wants a rapist/arsonist/criminal to decide how the world should be run. Democrates

I don’t think he’s really read up on Trumps reform 🤦🏽‍♀️

Tortuga

Nope.

Dang

no person who violates a law, norm, statute, constitution or other ... is qualified and much less must be able to say how or who administers a country ... who does not care about rights outsiders .... Not eligible to vote

Who?

That guy is gay

He said he didnt know what trump had done. He admitted to not being informed

We can only hope!

As opposed to supporting the challenger who wrote a crime bill that incarcerated thousands?

He's a pendejo

Who cares

Way to assume all ex cons would vote Democrat

Another Hollywood fuckboi

Who cares about this guys opinion exactly? Come on TMZ you better then that stop the bullshit updates - you guys are scrapping for media these days... even garbage news really 💩

Water, nutrients, education. Givvem sum orgxsms... DrainTheOcean

“Who built those cages Joe?”

Had a conversationW/Kanye once,'UR,U,no,UR the...U',psst is he mentallyret&rded?Who theF is this psycho?He doesn't even know how to form full ideas w/words. He just vaguely says stuff&wants U to guess the rest cus he doesnt even know what he means from being a POUD non readeR😂😅

No they shouldn’t

What's great instead of religion? Just...make sure you eat right, hydrate,get enough sleep,& exercise. That's how any human, can achieve,'heaven on Earth', before transcending this level of existence,&entering the next. One of my favorite Simpson quotes?'No, dig up, stupid'😂

Must be terrifying to show up to Kanye's cult pretending to be a church which by definition is a cult cus no idea of God would exist if humans didn't1st agree human sounds have meaning'I talk about how I feel about knowing nothing feom being a poud non reader, berryberryPOUD'😂😅

Meanwhile Kanye just not even in an adult conversation, big ass baby smile & eyes of wonder, 'Why dont people like Trump cus he's white? I don't get it.' Then drooling from having the stupids.

How's Kim support of Trump make sense?Seriously!She freed a few prisoners, &ignores Trumps intentionally killing +210,000🇺🇸s while Taiwan only has 7💀s? But those dozen or so prisoners she freed make up for Trump intentionally not taking action on Covid so+210,000🇺🇸s💀 so far?wtf

Um, NO, they shouldn't.

Can you imagine if Trump was black?Prosecuting attorney, 'So let me get this straight, your defense,is, you didnt give Parnas orders,Rudy did!,but you!,gave Rudy those orders to give to Parnas, &cus you used a middleman,means you didn't give Parnas orders,when you did, w/Rudy?'😂

Especially cus Trump literally= multiplefelon,i.e. its not theManafort admin or Cohen admin, its Trump admin,all their crimes,are his crimes. Trump should already be locked up since his defense? Trump didnt give Parnas orders, Rudy did,&Trump gave orders to Rudy to give to Parnas

What a dope 🤡

Love him. 👍🏻👍🏻

this has been happening long before trump has been president.....

They should be able to vote, they serve their time and pay their dues. ConsHaveTheRightToVote!

Hiz face is a mask

Do you mean Biden’s crime bill.. that incarcerated millions of black Americans..

When you break the law and end up in jail you dont deserve shit...when you get out of prison then vote ...

They are allowed to vote

Ex-Convicted Felons can run for President & Federal Office, but can't vote now does that make any sense.

Much of the world is completely off the rails

He can ripts it all he want, the bitter truth is that Trump freeing black people out of prison on a daily basis. The same people Obama and Biden locked up for laughtable reasons.

Someone should tell Danny that prison reform let thousands of black men out of prison

Fuck that you choose the criminal life you don’t deserve rights that law obiding citizens of this country get.

He’s confused. They can vote. They have to restore their rights. A price you pay when you break the law.

Listen to Machete

There’s always the option of NOT breaking the law!

They can in most states.
