Mel Gibson has emerged as a popular Republican candidate to run for governor of California…and he appreciates confidence from voters, but he is not in the hell he runs in.
A source close to Mel told TMZ… He’s “flattering” among the recent 2,640 respondents who did very well in the recent straw voting, and has emerged as the top Republican candidate with 12% of the vote, but that’s not happening.

It is said that Mel had no political ambitions — and that remains the same now, even as voters delve into his criticism of current Democratic leaders at the state and local levels.
You know, Mel is said pretty straightforward when he has the bones to choose from. It happened recently when he, along with many other Angelenos, exploded California Governor Newsom over a response to the deadly wildfires of January. MG was among those who lost their homes.

Mel was also very critical when Kamala Harris was playing Trump for the president… He told TMZ straight up last fall, and thinks he has a “fence post IQ.”
And hey, not only did Trump have a big victory over KH, but among his first business orders was to appoint Mel along with John Voight and Sylvester Stallone as Hollywood’s new special ambassador.

Trump said the purpose of creating these positions is to bring the business back to Hollywood… he claims it has been lost to foreign countries in the past four years.
Bottom Line… Mel continues his work in Hollywood – obviously unless Trump calls out.
