Rock legend Gene Simmons says that tens of millions of Americans—perhaps as many as 100 million people—secretly support GOP frontrunner Donald Trump’s plan to build a wall on the country’s southern border.
During a brief interview with Rolling Stone that was published on Wednesday Mar. 30, the Kiss frontman opened up about Trump, who he hailed as “the truest political animal I’ve ever seen onstage.”
“He has no speechwriters, no editing, no nothing. 'You cannot turn away,” Simmons, 66, told the publication. “And he’ll double down. If you ask him about building a wall he’ll say, ‘F—k you, I’m going to make it 10 feet higher, just because you asked me’ … He’s not there to be your friend,” said Simmons.
Referencing the massive, 40-foot high walls surrounding the Vatican, the rocker said, “The Pope has said the wall is unkind, but it’s interesting that at the Vatican there’s a wall. They don’t want people on the outside coming into the Vatican.”
“Trump is not a politician. He does not need your money, and he will speak his mind, God damn it, whether you like it or not. And he has no problem saying ‘F—k off,’” he said.

Right freakin’ on!!!
Oh I think the number is higher than that.
Given the 200 million that overtly support building a wall, I’d say 100 million people who secretly approve of it is about right.
Thanks for the post. I’d go to Breitbart to read the whole article but the pop-up are too much for my obsolete browser.
The man is so disconnected.
...Mr. GOPe himself, if there ever was one!
Simmons was born in Israel-his mother is a holocaust survivor-unlike some foolish people here, people from Israel understand the importance of walls...
Rock on Gene
NICE!!
Always loved Gene Simmons and KISS!
I don’t know. If you throw out the illegals, the liberals, and those who consistently hire illegals, how many are left? Then subtract some small percentage, who just do not care.
He is certainly correct. The issue crosses party lines.
I’m gonna mark Gene Simmons down as a fan! A true Jew supporter of Israel and America.
Need a wall? Ya think?
Cool.
The Wall is one of the few things Trump gets right.
This may be an extreme example but I know a lib voting for Trump because hes the only one who is saying he will build a wall. Her daughter was nearly raped by an ILLEGAL.
