Despite already speaking out in support of Harris late last month, Bautista made sure his stance on politics was clear in a new segment of Jimmy Kimmel Live this week.
While Kimmel roasted Trump's popularity among male voters in the polls during the Wednesday, Oct. 16 episode, the broadcast feed cut to a clip of Bautista in a boxing ring, where he tried to persuade the audience that Trump doesn't have the "alpha man" quality that he often attempts to embody.
"Fellas, we gotta talk," Bautista, 55, said in the video after throwing some stiff punches to his opponent in the ring. "A lot of men seem to think that Donald Trump is some kind of tough guy. He’s not."
"I mean, look at him, he wears more makeup than Dolly Parton," the Guardians of the Galaxy star continued. "He whines like a baby. The guy is afraid of birds. Donald Trump had his daddy pay a doctor to say his little feet hurt so he could dodge the draft. Look at that gut. It’s like a garbage bag full of buttermilk."
But Bautista didn't stop there.
He went on to slam the former president even further, stating, "He’s barely strong enough to hold an umbrella," while a clip of Trump struggling in a rainstorm played.
"He’s moody. He pouts. He throws tantrums. He acts like a 5-year-old behind the wheels of a truck," Bautista added, before taking aim at Trump's "pettiness" on social media, while several examples of his tweets appeared on the screen.

"This November, let’s stop kidding ourselves. Donald Trump is afraid...he's terrified that real, red-blooded American men will find out that he's a weak, tubby, toddler."
Trump will officially face off against Harris in the polls next month on election day, Tuesday, Nov. 5.
