Trump Campaign Uses Matt Damon's Voice Without Consent in Ad

TL;DR Summary
Former President Donald Trump used a monologue from Matt Damon's character in the film Air for a fundraising video on his Truth Social account without permission from the production company, Artists Equity, which co-produced the film. The company stated that it did not endorse or approve of the use of the monologue for the Trump ad and did not grant consent for any use of material from Air by the Trump campaign where approval or consent is required. This is not the first time Trump has used Hollywood IP without permission for his campaign ads.
