Kid Rock Endorses Trump
Rolling Stone ^ | 2/1/2016 | Brian Hiatt

Posted on 02/01/2016 2:03:29 PM PST by usafa92

Kid Rock, who campaigned with Mitt Romney in 2012 and freestyled the couplet, "They say Obama is lyin'/ That's why I'm voting for Romney and Ryan" in a concert outside that year's Republican convention, has settled on his pick for the 2016 Republican presidential nominee: Donald Trump.

Rock is one of the most prominent right-leaning voices in music, but he's also a somewhat irregular Republican: "I don't like the hardcore views on either side and I'm not in bed with anybody," he told Rolling Stone in 2013. "I'd probably be more libertarian, but I'm a firm believer you have to pick a side. I can't be playing the middle."

Bad Karma. I was in Florida and flew home the night before the 2012 elections to see the final Romney event in Manchester NH with Kid Rock performing. As a Trumpian I winced when I saw Trumps final rally before the NH primary voting is at the same arena.

One demographic this secures is the hick-hop crowd.

“Cowboy” works equally as well.

White rapper crowd?

You don’t even know what you’re talking about, one.

Kid Rock is not a “rapper,” he is a rock/alt rock star.

Kid Rock supports the troops, veterans and is all American, two.

You do know what alt as in alternative rock is?

You’re sitting there telling me that Kid Rock is a rapper, and then tell me that I am musically genre challenged.

You also imply that an endorsement from Kid Rock isn’t anything. Kid Rock has been active for years supporting the military at home and abroad. Which is beyond all reproach.

When in fact he’s one of the very few mainstream musicians that isn’t a totally liberal commie.

Lately he’s been doing more of the Southern Rock thing. Of course rural Michigan can be a lot like the South.

Well now we know why the relationship with Sheryl Crow didn’t work out.

So, you aren’t going to say Snoop Dog is a rock star.

Just like you aren’t going to say Kid Rock is a rapper.
