Actor and comedian Michael Rappaport, who has been a vocal detractor of Donald Trump, said he has changed his mind about the former president due to his stances on the economy and Israel, the two most important issues in Rappaport's mind.

On the Sage Steele podcast, Rappaport acknowledged that he had called Trump "pig d*ck" for years, but now plans to vote for him.

“I was wrong. ‘Cause. I talked s**t about Jared [Kushner] … I was first in line talking s**t about Trump. All day, every day,” Rapaport told Steele.

“I was wrong about Israel, and I was wrong about economy stuff," he added.

Rappaport said he still doesn't like some of Trump's "mouth" or certain behavior, but he unendorsed President Joe Biden in May.

He said he had been "ill-informed" about Trump's policy on Israel and didn't realize how he had turned the screws on Iran.
