During last year’s election cycle, Jake Paul urged his tens of millions of social media followers to vote for President Donald Trump. After he defeated Mike Tyson about a week and a half after Trump won, he spontaneously said that the country “feels like” it was “back.”

Two months after that, Paul and his brother, Logan, were seen at the inaugurations of the 45th and 47th presidents, but he has been relatively quiet about politics since then.

It comes despite many sweeping moves by the Trump administration, including ICE enforcement, deploying the National Guard in cities to help reduce crime and helping free the remaining Israeli hostages abroad.

A little over nine months into Trump’s second term, Paul is a fan of what he’s seen.

“America is slowly healing. And I think it’s in a way that people generally don’t understand or can’t understand because Trump is doing things that may not make sense to a lot of people, but in the long run will pay off and in the long run return great results for America,” Paul said in a recent interview with Pakinomist Digital.

Paul added that Trump is “doing one of the best jobs of any president in the history of the United States,” and praised him for not acting based on emotion, but what he feels is simply good for the country.

“Just being ruthless and demeaning, maybe not doing things for the public good or being loved by everybody — I think there are even Republicans who are like, ‘Why is this happening?’ Why is this happening?” They don’t know the inner workings and how deep and intricate things are or how big these problems are and how to solve them.

“You just have to trust the process and the administration, and I think they’re doing a phenomenal job. I think results are what’s going to make the most people happy in the end.”
