Actor Vince Vaughn is once again the subject of political discussion following his visit to the White House, where he met with President Donald Trump.

The official White House account shared a photo of the two together in the Oval Office, jokingly dubbing them the “White House Crashers,” a nod to Vaughn’s popular 2005 comedy Wedding Crashers.

This recent meeting has reignited debate over Vaughn’s political leanings, which have been a topic of public interest since 2020. That year, the actor was seen speaking with then-President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump at the College Football Playoff National Championship, sparking a wave of mixed reactions online.

In response to the backlash, Vaughn clarified in an interview with the Los Angeles Times that he does not endorse Trump. He identified himself as a libertarian and noted that the only political candidate he has ever supported is Ron Paul. He emphasized that his interactions with politicians, including Democratic strategist James Carville at the same event, were brief and nonpartisan.

Vaughn’s political views have long leaned libertarian. In a 2015 interview with British GQ, he voiced strong support for Second Amendment rights and criticized gun control measures. He controversially argued that guns should be allowed in schools as a deterrent to mass shootings.

While Vaughn’s recent White House visit appears to have been lighthearted, it has once again placed his political beliefs under public scrutiny. As with past appearances, the actor maintains that his views prioritize individual freedoms and limited government involvement.
