Ex-US President Donald Trump and 7x Mr. Olympia champion Arnold Schwarzenegger may belong to the same party, but they stand apart for their choices. Coming from different backgrounds, they are connected by their professional decisions. However, catering to other ideologies, they have time and again locked horns. In a not-so-hostile relationship, the two were often caught with the dagger of words.

Arnold Schwarzenegger said it loud and clear
Arnold Schwarzenegger loves to voice his opinion. Undeterred by unpleasing perspectives, the bodybuilding legend makes it a point to speak from his heart. There’s no denying that the two politicians do not share a cordial bond. Before Arnold took up the role as a host of the famous reality show ‘Celebrity Apprentice,’ Donald Trump was a part of it.
Though the ex-president left the show after choosing to stand for the presidential elections, Schwarzenegger says otherwise. The politician continued to be involved; this prompted the Austrian Oak to quit the show. Explaining his decision, he quoted, “With Trump being involved in the show, people have a bad taste and don’t want to participate as a spectator or as a sponsor or in any other way support the show.”
