Kurt Russell, who appeared in such movies as The Hateful Eight and Tombstone, has a recurring role on Facebook where he regularly makes a cameo in social media posts. One miscredited the actor with tweeting that Trump is relentless, dedicated, determined, and brave. Another took his comments about politics out of context .
